About Cattywompass

Welcome to my cattywompass life! I’m a big gal with a big personality, a lot of love to give, many interests, amazing friends and a family I love. I have a full life and keep pushing my pen to the side, even though it’s been calling to me for years.

I’m also a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in aging, dementia and end-of-life care. As a creative and advocate, I designed and started the first free-standing adult day program for people with dementia in our community, becoming a small business entrepreneur simultaneously. Life in my world gets pretty damn heavy at times, but I’ve learned a lot, especially not taking things for granted.

In 2019 my life changed dramatically when I was hit while driving home from work, sustaining a concussion. Beginning the next morning, when I discovered that I had lost a great deal of my speech, balance and visual focus life has been extra cattywompass. Now diagnosed with “Post Concussion Syndrome,” at mid-life, and in the midst of a global pandemic, I’m learning to build a new life for myself.

It’s time to pick up my pen, share my journey and embrace the mess that is my cattywompass life! Thanks for visiting and I hope you find something here that serves you!
