Howdy ya'all!
I took most of the summer off and felt that I should reintroduce myself to everyone and say hello to everyone who has joined since I disappeared.
First, My name is Karen in real life. I live in Western Kentucky. I have been married 24 years to my wonderful (sometimes annoying) husband and I am
the mom to the most awesome 18 year old girl ever! I am a hopeless insomniac, so I spend a lot of time on here reading.
I work in the insurance business for a fortune 500 company in the Medicare side of the business. I love helping our elderly/disabled get their
benefits! So if you ever have insurance/medicare/SSA questions send them to me! I can be a great resource. I also am learning so much about Obamacare,
and have a pretty good understanding of that, so send me those questions too. If I do not know the answer, I know where to find it!
I have had some strange things happen in my life that I cannot explain..my daughter and I both experienced a complete loss of time on a road trip a
couple of years ago, I am terrified of big foot although I have never seen one, and I swear sometimes at night there is someone watching me.
My husband served 22 years and 7 days on active duty with the US Army as a Military Police K-9 drug/explosives detector dog handler. I lived in
Germany for 7 years, South Korea for 2 years, Ohio, Missouri, Oklahoma, Texas, Washington and Kentucky.
I went to college and have a degree in mathematics and a minor in engineering design. I am $40k in debt in student loans and I work in insurance.
Oh and I have aspergers. I see the world pretty much black and white. There is no grey area with me. No pun intended although it was quite clever!
Which is why the strange things that have happened to me perplex me. I live in a very tangible, explainable world, and when things are not tangible or
explainable , well it freaks me out. Not Rain Man freak out...but it drives me to learn as much as I can about it so I can understand it. I still
havent explained my time lapse or my absolute certainty that we are not alone.
Oh, you will see me in the general chat forums alot , I have a teenage daughter. She drives me insane and sometimes I do not understand her at all and
I need a regular brained person to show me the way.
I am generally a very loveable person and try to see the good in all people and all situations. It is a perk of being "wired" differently.
I look forward to becoming a more active member of ATS and starting to contribute some real threads. I am ready to take this to the next level!
So, there you have it, my life story.
WAKE UP!!!!! HELLO????? IS THERE ANYONE THERE????
