Kim Penland
Im currently no longer an empty nester with one married and one engaged child and one child who has returned to the nest. I am a military spouse and have moved a lot! Living in DC the past two years has been a real change. Ive been the new person so many times ive learned to meet people and get involved quickly. I like to write about life, its humor and its irony. My brain moves at a pace so fast I am never bored. Im a Erma Bombeck wanna be....
I am happily married to the same man for well, a long time. I am finally comfortable with high rise living!. Im a huge fan of craigslist, both buying and selling. I also sell on ebay. I pitched my book to three New York Agents. One asked for more pages, then declined. A memoir, humorous or not written by a non-celebrity just does not sell. I currently have a blog and am considering self publishiing my book and selling it on my blog site. I see things in ways others do not. I often give a slant to something that no one else considered. Oh, and i have ADD and OCD, diagnosed as an adult and is part of the reason, i appear to be quirky. And why this biography is written in sporatic, change of subject, no segue kind of way. I would go back and change it but then you wouldn't get the real biography.

No Shoes, No Contacts, No ProblemI call in sick to work even though i'm not, My day of hell begins. A mad dash to a forgotten groomer appointment requires no vanity Hot day, two dogs in the car and and a gas gauge below E. Gas stop goes well until car won't start. Murphy's law ensues.
