member of Swap-Bot since March 3, 2007!
My name is Mikki!
I am a 34 yr old married mom of 3 kids and married for a little over 11 yrs. I am a S@HM and fabric artist! .

I am a Witch. I walk with the Goddess and I honor Her on a daily basis. I walk a fine line between the dark and the light, what I like to call a Twilight path. Because for me, there is no light without the dark.

I've been a Pagan for 30+, practicing for almost 18. I consider myself Eclectic since I follow my Louisiana HooDoo roots, Hedge Witchery, Kitchen Witchery and the Egyptian trad. I work with herbs, candles and crystals. I will not and do not hesitate to do what some consider darker magic. I am a Daughter of Hekate. I also honor Gaia, Isis and Bast.

I can't define myself as a person. I love most things rockabilly, punk, goth, horror, etc. I am a really dark person...meaning I really enjoy the darker images in life...blood, gore, horror, cemeteries, Gothic, etc etc. They only thing that bothers me are these types of images of children and animals. But it is really hard to offend me with what others might call dark, sick images. I like really bloody, gory images. I love zombie and vampire movies

If you do not get a rating from me, please, do NOT hesitate to message me or leave a comment on my profile about it. Sometimes things get crazy around here and I can forget to rate! I usually try to do it as soon as I get the package. But sometimes I check the mail as I'm leaving to do errands and I forget by the time I get home.
