Hello! My name is Karen and welcome! I’m a mom to two young men. I’ve been married to the same wonderful, patient, thoughtful and generous man (Kevin) for 35 years.
I used to work full time in a healthcare clinic (12 years) before moving to the precertification dept and work from home now – it’s my “day” job. I squeeze in family time and blogging in between all of that. (Okay, I really spend the majority of my “down” time watching gamers on Rumble or searching writing-related content).
We converted a cargo trailer into a camper and I guess we’re campers now! (Since going on cruises was put on hold because of the COVID crap).
I graduated from college with a B.S in Technical Writing – so I’m a wordy know-it-all, as well as a minor in creative writing – so don’t always believe what I write. *wink*
I believe in Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Writing Well. (I also believe in our Constitution – Don’t Tread on my Rights, Yo).
I can be snark-a-licious, but only when provoked or when confronted with ignorant, ill-informed knuckleheads.
I’ve been blogging (on and off, mostly off) for…. how many years…? (I’ve lost track, quite honestly).
I also have a lot to say about nothing.
Brace yourself.

Hi, am here for an Aloha Friday!
I measure success if am happy about the result. 🙂
I also agree that happiness is key to success! 🙂
Happiness is the key 🙂
I think that as long as you’re happy, you’re successful.
Wow ~ That’s a wide open question!! I think feeling happiness with what you have and where you are in your life is a big part of success ~ Knowing that you have contributed back to society in some manner and that you have become a good and caring person – to yourself, your family, your friends etc.!!
hmm… by the time I get to bed at night.
If its a good day; work is done, homework, dinner and chores aredone, bedtime and snuggles are complete and the hubby and I can relax together – alone.
Have a great weekend!
By fulfillment.
By happiness. My AF: http://www.rundpinne.com/2010/04/aloha-friday-2-april.html
Reaching your goals and liking the outcomes.
Have a great weekend!

By happiness I suppose. Of course there is some monetary aspect but mostly insofar as your overall feeling of security – and there isn’t a given number that makes me think, “Oh they are successful!” so much as how they are using what they’ve got and their attitude towards their lot in life.
