Gettin' to know you,
Gettin' to know all about you.
Gettin' to like you,
Gettin' to hope you like me.

Gettin' to know you,
Putting it my way but nicely.
You are precisely,
My cup of tea.


Now that our group is growing a little larger, let's get to know each other more. List 3 things about yourself and allow the next person to do the same. You may keep going and list 3 more things about yourself, even if you already had a turn!

I look forward to getting to know you!

Katie Coleman Hi Jen

My cats are both Thai street cats that turned up one day and moved in. They have a small frame and are probably a Siamese/ Burmese/Koran cat mix.

Are you a cat person ?

✨ABookGirl✨memoirs are my jam✨ (abookgirl1) 1. Not a morning person
2. Addicted to To-Do lists
3. Prefer my glasses to contacts

Same here nm on all three :)


message 26: by Greg (new)

Greg Bookgirl, I prefer contacts but mainly because they can't be easily broken or misplaced. As I'm occasionally accident prone, contacts work better.

For instance, my naughty cat chewed through the left part of my frame once only two days after I bought my glasses. All it took was a single night falling asleep reading with my glasses lying next to me open on the bed, and he went to town on them. Very frustrating .. and expensive!

I love tango and samba, I just can't decide which one I love more! :D
So Jen, you're going to be physical therapist? :D I wanted to be physical therapist but my love towards the laboratory won.
(oh,I'm only 3 months behind on my answer x) )

message 30: by Deb (new)

Deb (debgiggs) LOL - Way to go, everyone. This looks interesting and a fun way to get to know people a little bit. I want to copy "BookGirl's" #1 and #2, because that's me all over. LOL

message 37: by [deleted user] (new)

Hi, I'm new to this group and these threads are wonderful to read and get to know everyone.

1. I'm an avid reader (duh!). When I was young my mom used to tell me that I devoured books. It's gotten more rampant in my older years and my TBR pile is expedientially growing, especially now that I have more time to myself and at home full time.

2. Hubby is a professional Santa and works in NYC at Radio City Music Hall November and December. Wish I could figure out how to post a pic of him. :) But here's his Santa facebook.

https://www.facebook.com/santapatrick...

If someone had told me when we were 16 that eventually I would be married to Santa I would have told them they were crazy!

3. I'm 55, married 30 yrs to my high school sweetie, my avatar is Rossco a 12 yr old orange tabby. He's my sweetie too. I've got him as a 4 week old kitten. :)

message 42: by Noelle (new)

Noelle (noellekathleen) Hi, I'm Noelle.

1. This is my second week working the reference desk at my local library. So far I love it so much I think they might fire me for having too much fun.
2. I also teach a composition class and copyedit (but will edit a lot less now that I have a full-time job, maybe not at all for a while).
3. Lately I've been trying to get back in the habit of drawing every day, even if it's just a fast doodle before I go to bed.
