My vlog response:

Please note: When I mention in the video that I have a good life, I do not mean I have a perfect life. By “good” I mean, Kevin and I are older, we’re more established in our job situation (well, he is, I’m working on my situation), we’ve been together for nearly 21 years and we’re comfortable with each other and our boys are teenagers, i.e. semi-independent. Please do not think we haven’t struggled or worked our butts off to get where we are and don’t have room for improvement. We do. We always will. Just wanted to clarify that. 🙂

Hello! My name is Karen and welcome! I’m a mom to two young men – Blake (30) and Brandon (28). I’ve been married to the same wonderful, patient, thoughtful and generous man (Kevin) for 32 years.

I work full time in a healthcare clinic (for 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 YouTube videos or searching prompts and writing short stories to post).

We converted a cargo trailer into a camper and I guess we’re campers now! (Since going on cruises seems to be out of the question right now).

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.

Also follow me on Instagram, because life is more fun with pictures.
