Ice Dance

Ice skating has been a huge part of my life since I was little. I used to be a competitive singles skater. After some time away, I have decided to dedicate 2021 to fully focusing on training, to get ready to compete again in 2022/23 season, but this time in Ice Dance. It’s a lofty goal, and I am excited to pursue it. Encouragement is always welcome!

I would 💕love encouraging letters, swaps and gifts based on ice skates, ice dance and figure skating. Things like:

⛸ Ice Skating ephemera, stickers or washi

⛸ Ice skating postcards or notecards with a letter or new for me to write on

⛸ Anything vintage figure skating or Sonja Henie

⛸ Any cartoon characters or animals on skates

⛸ Anything from or inspired by figure skating on my etsy wishlist

⛸ Old skating pictures from books and magazines

⛸ Ice skate ornaments (I have them out all year)

⛸ Starbucks gift cards (Training is SO EARLY!!)

⛸ ANYTHING with Ice Skates on it

Collections

Things I am wishing for

✨ Peter Pan

✨ Starbucks, Target, Daiso gift cards

✨ Ice Skating ephemera, stickers, washi - anything really

✨ Anything from my Amazon or Etsy Wishlist

✨ Wax seal samples

✨ Items for Luna my Chihuahua - no rawhide please

✨ Self-care items: Bath salts, bath bombs, lotions, face masks, nail care and polish, etc.

✨ I love themed mail! Where the envelope and contents are all tied together. Pocket letters, flip books, mail art (especially mail art) or an envie filled with all one theme. They are my favorite happy mail to get! (If you need theme ideas please check out my profiler send me one of your favorite themes!!)

🚫 I live a pretty minimalist lifestyle and lately I have been getting envies full of things that I have no use for. So, if you are putting toss-ins please be sure they are something from my lists above. If not, please do not send them, they are wasted on me. I do appreciate the effort, I just don’t keep things in my house that aren’t useful, and I usually end up sending them out on in RAKs and such. Lately though it has been costing me a lot of money to do that. I would really rather not get them. If you aren’t sure, please ask. I would rather have a ruined surprise than get stuff that is not useful for me. (NOTE: This does not apply to swaps where random things are part of the swap)

🚫PLEASE DO NOT SEND ME PACKAGES WHERE EVERY SEAM IS TAPED SHUT. THESE ARE VERY DIFFICULT FOR ME TO OPEN AND CAUSE ME PANIC, AS I HAVE BROKE, CUT AND TORE ITEMS INSIDE TRYING TO GET INTO ENVELOPES. I UNDERSTAND IT IS REINFORCEMENT BUT THERE HAS TO BE ANOTHER WAY. (Like - leaving one corner available is super helpful)

🚫ALLERGIES: Walnuts (other nuts are okay)

🚫Anything musty, strong perfume/incense or smoky smelling - it kills my senses and overwhelms me and goes in the garbage.

🚫AUTISM SPEAKS anything - puzzle pieces, blue pieces especially. This organization is not supportive of actually autistic people. I don’t agree with their philosophy, nor do they speak for me. (Advocating moment)

🚫 Propaganda of any kind

As I am on Swap-bot limited minutes a week, I have cut back on the swaps I do participate in.

Here is the steps I take for swaps...

1. I sign up or create a swap.
2. If it is not a profile based swap, I prepare the swap and have it packaged and ready for when partners are assigned. If it is a profile based swap, I wait until partners are assigned - naturally.
3. When partners are assigned I address and send off the swap, usually the same day. Unless it is a profile based swap, I tend to have to shop for those, as I do not have a stock pile of stuff to send. If it is not a blue box(mine blue box only allows envelopes) swap I hand it off to a friend (who comes once a week to help with errands) or my husband to take to the post office, as I am blind and getting to post office is a bit tricky. (Also, I recently moved, and I am learning, tweaking, and creating a new system that works for my new location)
4. Once the package is handed off to someone or in the blue box across the street - I am no longer in control of the item. I mark it sent.
5. Once I recieve a swap, I leave feedback. Usually within minutes of receiving it, if I haven’t gone over my 1 hour limit.
6. After I leave feedback I move the swap to “Archive”. Because of this - I do not know if you received your swap until you leave feedback. Meaning I don’t hound or hunt down feedback. I figure everyone swapbots differently, but I know I did my part best I could.

That being said, if you have not recieved a swap I marked sent, please message me before leaving negative feedback, so I can try and figure out how to make it right. Clearly, the postal system does it’s best, but sometimes things fall thru the cracks. I would NEVER flake on a swap. I love swapbot too much!
