Thought I would post my groups as I have not done so yet. I have a wide variety from posting gather birthdays, to laughing at our silly mistakes, to counseling and reaching out to people in need.
Reaching Out: http://reachingout.gather.com/
Group Tags: chatting, making new friends and contacts, reaching out
There are many groups here specifically geared for the writer, but this group is a little different. Sometimes we just want to reach out and talk to someone at the other end of the computer. I know I get feeling lonely in the wee hours of the morning how about you?
You can ask a question, share an opinion, talk about your day or how you are feeling and you just don't have the energy to convert it to a full fledged article, so now you have a place to do that.
You can of course share articles and images because essentially this group is for anything on your mind. Reach Out and Touch Someone in a friendly way.
A Simple Tribute: http://asimpletribute.gather.com/
Group Tags: simply acts of kindness, honorable mentions, friends and love ones, heros, tributes
We honour our love ones, animals and friends who have done so much to enrich our lives, we honour famous people worldwide who have mentored or taught us to be the people that we are and we will show how grateful we are to them.
These tributes can be about the person, or the act they have done, and can even include random acts of strangers. Simple acts of kindness of any kind are welcome. Feel free also to post about your animals who have enriched your life in whatever way as well.
Let's all look for the good in others and post them here. Let's make this group about the good in humanity and the animal kingdom whether it be about good old aunt Jane, Princess Dianna or Sparky the dog.
We can all find examples to make this forum a success.
Ask Carol: http://askcarol.gather.com/ I am trained as a counselor
Need counseling about a certain matter? Come ask Carol with your questions and concerns. Group feedback welcome. We will attempt to provide a comforting environment for those in need of help, offering guidance and support.
Oops Silly Me: http://oopssillyme.gather.com/
funny stories, laughing out, embarrassing moments
Embarrassing moments, funny stories, laughing at blunders. Life is too short to be miserable. Let's laugh at the silly things that we do. The aim of this group is to laugh at ourselves in a fun way. We can recount embarrassing moments, foolish behaviour and all the silly things that we do. This group is intended to be fun and not to hurt anyone or anyone's feelings.
The Birthday Club: http://thebirthdayclub.gather.com/
Group Tags: party fun, celebrations, birthdays, special stories, friendship
Tell us your birthday don't be shy let's celebrate as a gather community. Send me your birthday by mail and I will announce it in the group and feature a story of yours to be included on your birthday. All great birthday stories are welcome from non birthday celebrants as well. Let's make this a fun group and a great way to get to know our gather friends.

I Think I'm in all of your groups. If not, you can let me know...but I'm pretty sure I've responded to all the invites, I just Haven't gotten around to writing on all of them just yet...been busy with the crew around here; and keeping up with all your Other projects, Then of course I'm a wordy person. Once I get writing I don't know When to simply stop writing. You know me...lol
I know that I belong to all but one and will quickly rectify that.
DITTO what Paula said: "Wherever Carol is that's Where I wanna be. Call me a
sappy puppy but she's worth following around". She definitely is!
