Hello, I'm just thought I'd intro myself. I'm a woman in So Cal. I have several hobbies: knitting, tatting, recipe collection (Ah... I hardly ever make them!), and reading. I got no kiddies, but I have my little old buddy, a cockatiel named Majnu. Used to have two cockatiels, one called Layla, but he was 35 when he passed away (still miss him).
