My name is Karen. My husband Sam and I live on the Oregon Coast and run a sign shop together. He is a lifelong artist. I love to write and am currently writing a memoir. It will be ongoing.
I am learning a lot about how to communicate. It’s not an easy task but I think we all need to do it and be willing to grow and change with each new day. It’s not a simple thing to keep going sometimes but our choices are that we are either here, or we’re not and if we’re not, who do we hurt out of our own desperation?
I also take lots of pictures. I love trees and plants, herbs and their flowers. I sometimes wonder what it feels like to be in their “skin.”

I lost my love on a winding road, / The scent of summer around the bend,
A spent mattress lay haphazard in the dirt, tagged with black spray paint, and yet another billboard read, “You’ll be back”
“What can I help you with miss?” the man behind the counter asked. / “Well,” she started out hesitantly. “I was looking for just a little bit of sadness, not a lot, nothing I can’t de…
“Man, I could use a bottle of wine,” she thought to herself, feeling around the bottom of her purse for any money she might have forgotten was there.
I want to dream that we can find our way through those darkest hours
