    • About Me

      My name is Karin and I'm 41 years old. I am married to a very supportive husband who has stuck with me for 22 years and with ED for 11. My pride and joy are my two children, Melissa, 15 and Justin, 20. Justin is married to a lovely girl and I hope to be a grandma soon. I recently quit my job as administrative assistant because I had a nervous breakdown. So I'm enjoying some quality quiet time right now.

    • Interests

      My biggest interest is reading. I think books are the most awesome thing ever. They let me escape reality. I also love going to Starbucks and the movies.

      From tmommyof6 September 29

      it has been so long. i have missed you. i noticed you took me off your friends list and i totally understand. i was never available and was very negative. i am sorry for that. just wanted you to know that i think of you often and miss what we had. you were a terrmendous and faithful friend and believe it or nor you helped me get better. my eating is still an issue but not a immediate life threatening one now. you were an angel sent from God and i took advantage of you and i apologize. i hope all is well for you and your life is what you want it to be. i still care and will always remember you. you are a special person. may God bless you in great ways.
