Howdy, SITStas! I just want to thank y'all for stopping by my blog for a look-see. Please make yourselves at home and feel free to look around.
Here are a few fun facts about me:
- I have 3 blogs! I know - it's alot. But I've split up my blogging so that people can read what they wish. Besides this blog, I have a knitting blog and a digital scrapbooking blog.
- I just launched a social network for moms -also called Momma 'Tudes. It's in it's infancy and I hope that I'll get oodles of members!
{Hint, Hint} - In conjunction with my blogs and social network, I've launched the Momma 'Tudes Weekly Radio Show. It's live each Monday @ 1:30pm EST. We chit chat about knitting and crafting and some mommy stuff. Those who listen LIVE on Blog Talk Radio can actually call into our show and talk w./ us or enter the show's chatroom and chat with us DURING the show!! (If you can't listen live, you can subscribe to our podcast on iTunes - search for 'Mommatudes' under podcasts.)
- I married my HS sweetheart and we've been together a total of 19 yrs, 12 of which we've been married.
- I have 2 kiddos, 1 of which has Asperger's Syndrome. Our story is HERE.
- I'm new to this SAHM thing and hope to get better at it!
- I'm an avid knitter. I also crochet, scrap, and craft.
- I joke ALOT. I have alot of serious challenges in my life with DS having special needs - so I love to joke and have fun with life.
- We just moved the entire family from the Buckeye State to PA for their autism services. We still can't sell our house. But our son is so much better off.
- I LOVE-LOVE-LOVE Twitter and am a social media addict. I'm known all over social media as KnitPurlGurl or as simply, Karrie
- I'm a complete goober - In my spare time, I LOVE reading & writing Twilight Fan Fiction. I write at Twilighted.net
Thanks for stopping by. I look forward to meeting all of you! Please visit again soon! :)

Hello again from SITS! Happy to find you.
Off to check out your Twilight work. I'm on a break from obsessive re-reads of the series, but I never made any promises about fanfic . . .
Love your blog. I too understand the healing of humor having kids with special needs. If we don't laugh we might just cry. So glad you were featured. Can't wait to browse around some more.
Happy SITS day!! Congrats on being featured!!

Congrats on your big day! Happy SITS to you!
Wow! We have a lot in common! My little boy has "special needs" too. People ask me all the time if he has asbergers, but he doesn't. I joke around a lot too, it helps me deal with daily life. It is really hard to have a child with problems.
I came by from SITS. Congrats on your special day! I'm off to check out your stuff.
I am so excited to go and check out everything that you do, you are so involved I love it!
Nice to read a little about you.
Congrats on being a saucy blogger! I hope you enjoy your day of love.
Wow! What a social network! you are fantastic! Keep up the good work and congrats on being the featured blogger!
Happy *slightly belated* SITS day! :)
Sad to hear you've moved from the buckeye state, but so glad to hear you're loving PA and hope your house sells soon!
Steph
Happy SITs day and you seem VERY busy

Howdy!!! Happy SITSday!!!!
Go Sista Gal!
Interesting blog...you've got a lot going on...how do you do it all???
This is my first visit as a commenter with SITS...and I'm thinking its pretty neat...
Thanks
Becky
Happy SITS Day!! I read your story about your son. I too am going to a similar struggle with my son who is six. He has all the symptoms you described and we have even seen doctors and UC San Francisco because my pediatrician thinks he has Aspergers. However, as of right now the experts are leaning toward a ADD diagnosis. However, he also has OCD tendencies, is very rigid about routines and so forth. Not to mention his over the top obsession with tractors. Anyway, I am glad things seem to be getting better slowly but surely for your family.
Sorry I am a day late! I hope you were lathered in lots of bloggy comments!
Sorry for the late visit, but congrats on being featured!
Congrats on your sits day!

Hi! Hope your SITS day was fantastic! Are you still reeling from all of the comments? Holy Canoli that is a ton : ).
I live in PA. How are you enjoying it? I live outside of Philly. I think the people are nice here. You have to let me know how they compare to Ohio : ).
I will pray today that your house sells quickly. I imagine that is VERY stressful!
Congrats on your SITs day!!! Yay! I love your blog :) Off to check out your featured posts :)
