I found this site in the AARP bulletin. No idea what to expect, except that the name grabbed me -BoomerWomen! That's definitely me. Just looking for someone to talk to in my age group.
I'm married, have 2 sons, 3 stepdaughters and a stepson, 16 grandchildren and 2 cats (one named Boomer). I work as a secretary in a hospital - love it. For many years I made porcelain dolls, but they take up a lot of room so I stopped that. I paint-watercolors, write, read, crochet, bake, work out, garden, sew costumes. Lots of interests.

Welcome Pattycake! JJ's right - you DO lead a busy life.....I spent 20 years working in Administration in two different hospitals - I too loved my work. I'm now retired and loving that even better! LOL

I have a cat named Sam, love to garden, read, write, AND paint (mostly oils). We definitely share some interests and that's something you will find as you get to know the girls here - we all seem to share a lot....makes for a GREAT time when you visit the forum.

Welcome and happy holidays.

Welcome Pattycake...that childhood rhyme is running through my mind right now. Is that the source of your name? Just wondering...

I like to refinish antique furniture, read, spend time in the garden, and here lately bake...whew!

I'm married, 2 daughters, 3 sons, 3 dogs, 1 grandson and a new teenage granddaughter...oh and a to-be-son-in-law. [Big Grin]

After working for years and years...I now just spend my days at home.

Merry Christmas to you and yours!

Welcome from me too Pattycake.....
I worked for 30 years in a hospital. I did everything except brain surgery.
Had to leave because of medical problems, now I don't want to go back.
I live in Olympia, Wa. and yes it's raining!
Merry Christmas....and you really will get addicted to this place.

Welcome, Pattycake,

I do volunteer work in a hospital. I'm married, 2 grown kids (29 and 27) but no grandchildren. I was a teacher for many years before I retired 4 years ago because of health problems. We have a cat named Cha-Cha.

Like many others, I'm addicted to this forum.
