Hello Lorin!
Nice to meet you and thank you so much for the kind email earlier :) I really appreciate the warm welcome!
I haven't been a part of any kind of group, except Hospice (currently on hiatus-needed a break), and I'm greatly impressed with this group, the people and it just generally seems like something I would really enjoy. If it's OK, I'm talking about it on my silly blog...ha ha.
I am a native Nevadan, originally being born and raised in Reno, but also lived in S. Lake Tahoe for over 10 years. Man I miss the it. The BEAUTY of it is hard to put into words! But Lake Tahoe is now for the rich and the rich only--go figure. I've been married for 10 years coming this Nov. 18, but together for 12 years. We now live in 'Sin City' and have been here since March of 2003. With every fiber of my being, I absolutely and with no doubt detest living here! But hubby's work brought us here and it's part of the marriage contract for me to follow (lol), I had to---for now. But sometimes contracts are made to be broken...hint, hint. I will say that I've met some super people here and if it wasn't for my books, crafts, my dog (learning to quilt and sew, crochet, garden and walk my Rottweiler) I would probably go nutso! Also my new friend online make life so much better and interesting......I love it.
I have a beautiful 8 1/2 year old Rottweiler named Yager (pronounced like Chuck Yager) who is the love of my life! He is a BIG boy weighing in at 135 lbs, but not fat....just big. We should have named him tank...ha ha. In Feb. of this year I lost my beloved Hershey to cancer, he was 12. That boy was my SON, no doubt about it---a Rottweiler too. Both of my dogs are rescued. :))
OK, I've bored you enough about me. Except for one thing: it's always been my dream to live on the east coast or even Michigan. I LOVE Michigan--Grand Haven, Holland, Benton Harbor or any other of those areas. I've been researching them for years. Upstate New York or Maine are also my dreams/fantasies! Cold and harsh weather doesn't faze me, but the heat just kills me!
I'm glad to be a part of this group and look forward to discovering new books, everyones different tastes and opinions on books and just getting to know you all :)
Thanks so much for having me!
Gayla
