New to KT

8 years ago

Hello, I am new to Kitchen Table. I have lurked at Home Decorating for a long time, and they mention KT quite often. Also was on Daylilies years ago. I am a retired high school science teacher, who substitutes still at the high school. I do flower gardening, and love home decorating. I live in the midwest with my two little dogs. Mom and 2 daughters live near.

    Glad you've pulled up a chair. I like your dogs with their UP and DOWN ears and beautiful markings. How nice to be near family. Chime right in, and we will get to know you.

    Hello and welcome LadyPat to the KT from another retired teacher. I taught elementary for 30 years. I've been here at the KT since it first started. We have a lot of wonderful people here. You did bring some chocolates with you, right?

    Hi and welcome ladypat. Little "cheeky" with the tongue makes me laugh, but I really love the lop-eared dog's sweet face.

    Welcome, I am new too and just getting to know people. I would love to learn more about your sweet pups.

    Thank you everyone for the warm welcome. Yes, no grandkids yet, so little dogs it is. My dog girls are litter mates, and was told they are half chihuahua and half rat terriers. At 12 pounds, I am not sure about the rat terrier part. The flop eared one looks like a Jack Russell more, and the tongue out one favors chihuahuas more. It was the most fun ever when they were little pups!

    I have only been retired 2 years and retired a couple of years early to be more available to my 96 year old mom.

    Greetings from a NYC suburb! I joined in 2009 when I was having problems picking out a backsplash for my new kitchen. I then discovered The KT.

    We are a great group of women, (and the occasional man) have lively, interesting, serious discussions and at the same time very supportive of each other.

    Welcome from Ontario, Canada. I think you'll find the KT consists of many animal lovers. Your two are adorable.

    Hey, ladypat. Cute pups you have there! I just kind of snuck in to the KT (how rude!) but keep meaning to start an introductory thread of my own. Lots of interesting, thought-provoking conversations take place here, along with some silly, fun ones. But I think what makes the table is the people gathered 'round it. :)

    Welcome. I have been here since before 2000. I am an unretired housewife! I have two granddaughters and two great grandsons. I have four children and one red Pom. Her name is Izzi. She and I like to ride about on my golf cart which is called my Big Rig. I hope you will enjoy your time here. Love your pups too.

    Hi, I'm another slider, originally from PA, lived in KS for a couple years, now in NC. Your dogs are very cute! I have a cute boston terrier. I used to hang out more on gardening forums but it hurts too much to get out and work a lot now. I love this forum and I think you will too. Welcome!
