Just a little addition ...



                   Brawny Blondes!!  

Welcome Back

Although we've never really been gone.

Mollie moved to Japan to attend college and I'm working full time in a surgeon's office. Carolyn is still here too, she's reading, painting and singing badly at me on the phone.

And we still have this blog.

We're not really overly romance readers/writers anymore. Although we both still love the genre it takes a lot more to engage us.I'm currently reading more non-fiction and Carolyn is well, she reads everything but if it doesn't engage her quickly she's on to the next.

So we've been talking about the blog and have agreed that even when we end up silent for years, it's still a form of home for us. And personally, I've been feeling a desire to write again. Nothing major. Nothing fictional. Maybe just a wish to shout into the void and feel heard.

And for the sake of disclosure I do want to mention that I've started therapy because I'm having serious displacement with empty nest syndrome. Mollie is thriving in Japan and I've never been prouder but I'm lonely and sad and unsure of my place in this world.

So that's where I'm at. Politics will be discussed. Romance novels, as well as vaginas, menopause, anger and sorrow will be discussed.

When Carolyn and I first met, her husband John was driving a big truck, she was working as a medical biller, Mollie was 4 years old, I liked sex and we were devoted fans of Carlos Marin. Carolyn lost John to lung cancer, she retired, she prefers to look at brawny blonds. Mollie is in college, sex is a distant memory, and well, I like K-Pop and K-Pop boys.

Everything changes.

But we always have this blog to come home to.
