Welcome to my bookshelf.

NOTE: I have changed my email address. When I did this in the past, it caused problems. For example, I did not receive private messages that bookcrossers sent to me or they did not receive the private messages that I sent. I eventually began using my old email address again. But I truly want to delete my old email address, so I am trying again. If I fail to answer a private message that you send me, here is my actual email address: kel327 at yahoo.com.

If you would like to get my physical address, bookcrosser "spatial" has my address and has agreed to give it to anyone that requests it from her. This is if you have problems communicating with me.

There are a lot of things that I like. I have always loved cats but now I love dogs because I have a fantastic little dog who has stolen my heart. Tabby cat number two is now ten years old. (The original tabby cat is no longer with me.) I also like birds, mountains, the seashore, flowers, vintage things, antiques, little things, handmade things, and the colors blue and green. I love chocolate, marzipan, cake and ice cream.

Personal Challenge: To increase the number of countries where my bookcrossing books have traveled. The books must be registered on bookcrossing by me. If you are interested in reading about how my books got there, please look at "Tabby-cat-owner's Around-the-World-personal challenge parts 1-3" on my bookshelf. They are part of my permanent collection.
