Tietoja minustaIntroduction To Me:

I'm LT User #34,867. I'm married, mother of three grown children, and proud grandmother of a grandson. I work as quality auditor for a home health agency and as administrator for our family-based concrete contracting company. Want to know what I'm doing? You can usually find me attending BookCrossing Meet-Ups, auditing nursing records, birdwatching, browsing the LibraryThing fora, drinking coffee, editing my CSA Newsletter, feeding 3 feral cats, planting native species plants, or thinking up new TIOLI challenges (not necessarily at the same time). In the past, I have been called "the Johnny Appleseed of books". :)

My Reading Preferences:
I like both fiction and non-fiction. I prefer English translations of foreign (especially Middle Eastern or Asian) novels and books by lesser known authors. I'm attracted to matte-covered trade paperbacks as they seem more exotic than other books somehow.

My Wishlist on BookMooch: where I can try to actually find some of these books.

Thanks for stopping by!

Notable Quote:
“Faulty memory and distraction are a particular danger in what engineers call all-or-none processes: whether running to the store to buy ingredients for a cake, preparing an airplane for takeoff, or evaluating a sick person in the hospital, if you miss just one key thing, you might as well not have made the effort at all.” (The Checklist Manifesto by Atul Gawande).
