Hi! I’m Karyl!
I am
52! My sister-in-law tells me 52 is the new awesome.
(I think SHE is awesome!) I was born in
Detroit, Michigan
and grew up in Michigan, Massachusetts, and Maryland.
Eight years ago, I married my best friend and hero,
Walter.
I have a 25-year-old
son
(Garrett) whom I adore.
We live in Maryland with our two
cats
Nylah (Fluffy)
and Bella (Belly, the high-strung one).
By day I am an
HR Manager.
I try to make the workplace as kind and fun as I can. By night I am a mad crafter. 🙂
I try to eat healthy but I love to
bake
and cook southern food like baked macaroni and cheese, and potato salad.
I love reading and watching movies and am a homebody.
A typical weekend includes a little
decluttering,
tidying, grocery shopping and cooking a big Sunday dinner. I am Catholic and sing in my church choir. I also like to write
poetry.
I love my
family.
I
love to laugh.
I am passionate about my
life.
Each day is a
blessing
and I’m going to keep on living and loving life until the good Lord calls me home!

Dear Karyl, I hope you will add a link to your blog on my blog. You seem to be a kind lady and I like your playful doll-making ‘at night’. Creativity can be sleep depriving, he? 🙂
I sure will. Thanks! Thank you for thinking I am kind. I do try to be! It doesn’t always work but my intentions are good. 🙂 I love doll making. Wish I could do it more! One day! At night will have to do for now. Truth be told I don’t stay up all night crafting. I need lots of sleep. So it’s more like an hour here and an hour there. I look forward to visiting your blog. Thanks for stopping by!

Karly,
Actually my blog is about travel. But When I saw different things I share my blog. Firstly Travel. And Yours?
My blog is what I call an everything blog as opposed to food, mommy, etc. I blog about whatever I feel like but common themes are family, faith, food, fun and poetry.
Yeph. I got it. I want to just travel. Because I want to travel in the world. one day I’ll .
Traveling is fun. I may do some travel memory posts.
Yeph. Thank you. 🙂
