about ladycamos
As a former newspaper reporter, I have witnessed firsthand the vitriol and victory of politics, the effects of a downtrodden economy and the strength and resilience of a community. The experience was invaluable, but after about three years, two moves, one layoff and too many furlough days, I found myself burned out and I left the news for the more stable world of communications.
At one point in my career, I wrote a regular column about the sometimes ridiculous — but never mundane, I hope — happenings in my life. So until I snag a book deal, I’ll be blogging instead. Ever the optimist, I aim to find the silver lining even in the crappiest of situations, so check in regularly for my insights into growing up, moving on and the cheerful calamity that is my life.
Enjoy,
Catherine/ladycamos
I love reading anything you write. I only wish I could spend more time doing so…..somewhere I have to combat , roast and “tri” – You have such talent and insight. I truly believe you will be successful in whatever you do. Be open to everything that comes your way. It’s always great to see you Catherine :) You are in my prayers as is everyone who crosses my path in my own journey for fulfillment – stop in again soon!! :)
Catherine,
I found you! I wondered where you’d gone. I hope you are doing well. It’s never easy to lose a job. In fact, it hurts like hell. Stay in touch, ok? You’re a terrific writer.
Be well, and thank you for all your kind words on my behalf.

Just discovered your blog and love it! I’m a journalist/blogger, too. Used to work in Tennessee and now in NC. Loved your post about your family trip – I would have screamed “Hey you guys!” :o) Good luck!
Like seeing an old friend next to the gossip fence!! :-D
