I am a registered nurse. I love to read and just found out about bookcrossing in October 2007. Someone left a bookmark on my kitchen cabinet while I was on vacation. I still don't know who cause they won't "fess up". Now I'm hooked. One of my daughters is also an avid reader and she has joined the fun. I was down to one cat, Willard, and I just inherited Nitro (Nitroglycerin) from my daughter when she moved her family to Colorado. I also support the stray population who stop by and stay for a meal on their way to somewhere else. And maybe leave a litter of kittens before I figure out, "Oh, it's a girl!" I adopted a fluffy little farm cat from the mother of one of my friends. She sings along with Reba McIntire and she's a orange tabby. So I named her Reba.

I'm a coffee, tea, and hot chocolate drinker. I love to try new flavors. I am obsessed with tea towels and thimbles, I just love them. I pick them up every place we go on vacation. Weird, huh?

I've started my grandson his own little collection of books. Robert Wulff arrived March 9, 2015, 8 pounds, 10 ounces. We call him the lil Wulffie. So naturally any little boy books would be greatly appreciated. Where has the time gone? Wulffie is eight and he is reading Chapter books. He loves "National Geographic!!! I can't believe it! Last night he read "The Giving Tree" to me over the phone. His Mom told him how much I like Shel Silversteen. I was pretty tearful! So was his mom. Quick update! He called me and asked me to send him some Diary of a Wimpy Kid books. Bamaforever had sent him one and now he's hooked! LOL! I bought him the set!

Wulff has a little brother due March 25, 2021. And he is so excited to tell everyone he is going to be a BIG Brother!!!! He wants to call him "Snake"! LOL!!! (Okay, Honey, we'll see....) Harlan Cobra aka Harleyboy was born on his due date, weighing in at 9 pounds, 9 ounces. Wulffie loves to read to him!!!!

I have really enjoyed catching books and setting them free. I like to read everything before I let it go, so sometimes it takes a while for my books to get back into the wild. I just got brave enough to sign up for some of the challenges and am having fun with that. I love the idea of RABCK. What a Great way to release books. If I have a book you want to read just let me know.

I love surprises. I can only read English, much to my dismay.

A good heavy book holds you down. It’s an anchor that keeps you from getting up and having another gin and tonic.
