Hi! New here .....
| Sat, 08-02-2003 - 1:06pm |
Just wanted to say hi and to introduce myself! You all seem like a very nice group and I look forward to 'hanging out' with you for a bit. My birthday is on the 13th of August and I'll be 44 years old so I fit here right? ;-)

They call me Red and I'm 48 and live in WA State. Click on my screen name to learn more about me.
I am rehabbing from a total hip replacement right now (5 wks out) and have been more or less housebound since I can't drive. So I have been reading a lot of books, too. Right now I'm re-reading The Grapes of Wrath. What types of books do you like to read? Earlier, I read Prodigal Summer by B. Kingsolver, Red Leaves, by P. Simmons (recommended by one of the board ladies, a murder mystery), Dinner at the Homesick Restaurant, by Anne Tyler, one of Diane Mott Davidson's silly mysteries, re-read The Catcher in the Rye, and started but haven't finished The Devil in the White City, a non-fiction book about Chicago's 1928 World Exposition and a concurrent string of murders. So, you can see I read quite a variety!
Look forward to getting to know you better.

Hi Red and thanks for the welcome! My name is Kathy, from New Jersey, I have an ivillage web site if you want to know a bit more about me and my family! :-)
Ahhhh books - I LOVE to read and Barbara Kingsolver is one of my favorites! I read "Prodigal Summer" and "Pigs in Heaven" so far this summer, my FAVORITE book of hers was the "Poisonwood Bible" though! I read it 2x and probably will read it again. Right now I'm reading "Perfect Match" by Jodi Picout, so far it's one of those that when I'm reading the house could burn down and I wouldn't notice - the last book I read of hers "Keeping Faith" was one like that also! I have another Picout book waiting for me for when I finish this one "Plain Truth" ..... can you tell I LOVE to read? :-)
I'm looking forward to getting to know everyone here!
I'm somewhat new here,too. Having fun,though and you will too. I will be 46 in Sept.,not sure I'm ready for it. :o)
