Introductions

Hello, my name is Karen Lovett. You may have seen some of my online writing signed K D Lovett. I tend to describe myself as “just an old grandma” but there are many more facets to my life than just being a grandmother. I grew up in the south and have a wide variety of favorite topics or interests. I enjoy crafting of many different sorts. Music has always been a joy to me. Children are a blessing that I have been lucky enough to enjoy as a babysitter, aunt, mother, grandmother, friend, and teacher. Books are a true love of my life, just don’t ask my husband how many times he has asked me to get rid of some of the books that I have around the house. They are hidden everywhere, even in boxes that he thinks are filled with craft supplies.

I truly enjoy helping others. I have volunteered in several different ways over the years, including online. After several years of volunteering at a local school, I began to substitute teach. During the five years I have worked as a substitute, I also went back to school and completed both my associates and bachelors degree. I am a certified teacher. I still enjoy substitute teaching. One day, I may be blessed with a regular classroom, but for now, I am enjoying being able to visit about 1000 students while helping out their teachers.

The flexibility of subbing allows me to spend a little extra time with my three kids. My youngest just turned 15 so he is now learning to drive. The oldest son is 19 and currently in college. The oldest is 27 and she has a total of five children that she cares for or helps care for. I’m still waiting to meet two of them. The other three visit me on a semi-regular basis.

As you can tell, I consider myself an open book and I do not mind sharing what I think, feel, and experience. Well, within reason of course! There are some things that I feel should remain private. I’ll share my struggle with weight, my joy of teaching, or my love of helping others with  you anytime.

So, get comfortable and settle in for a chat or a quick read on a topic. Either way, I am glad you are here and I look forward to sharing with you and hopefully even getting to know you a little bit in the process.
