Update: I miss my happy mail! :) Trying to get back into swapping since mom passed on 2/24/15.

I no longer work as an office manager in Peds. I now am pursuing my love of helping people via self-care coaching.

I loathe Flakers and I pledge to rate!

I always send out my swaps and will never flake on anyone. The day I mark my item as 'sent' that means I have dropped it into a mail box. It may take a day or two before it is picked up. Being in Alaska means the mail can sometimes be slow or otherwise wonky. Like any other place, things can also get lost or damaged despite one's best intentions and efforts.

If you don't receive a swap from me, please let me know and I will remedy the situation.

I've been happily married for years and have been with m husband for 12 years. We have fur babies; one hamster named Daisy (nicknamed Axel) and a kitty named Leia.
