Hello new readers!

For purposes of anonymity, we will be calling ourselves Brenda and Karen. This blog may contain ups and downs of our personal lives, some occasional cursing, and traces of microplastics. Please consume wisely.

So what exactly will we be talking about? We will discuss family struggles (and the happy moments too), being an adult, fur babies, human babies, owning a home, hobbies, books, being gay, and just trying to survive in this hectic world.

We are two lesbians in our early 30s trying to make ends meet in this difficult world. We are hoping to grow our family in the next year or so, but for now we have two cats who are our whole world. We bought our first home in 2021, a townhome, and we now know the struggles of being part of an HOA and adulting. Spoiler alert, it sucks.

Now let’s talk about Karen. Karen is the more creative one of the team. Karen is loaded with dry humor and wit that will keep you laughing for days until you get sick of her and want her to leave. Karen works as a case manager helping people, which is ironic since Karen dislikes people.

And how about good ole’ Brenda. Brenda is the sweetheart in this dynamic duo. Brenda has moments of being funny and is a huge people person. Let’s list off those good people person qualities: caring, supportive, helpful, and always there to listen. Brenda is the type of person who will chat with strangers in the grocery store, and when she looks back, Karen has already ran and hid in another isle to avoid interaction. Brenda works as a therapist (there we go again with her being a “people person”). 

We are excited to start sharing all of our struggles and experiences with you all through our humor and life experience! Buckle up kids, it’s gonna be a long trip.
