About Me

RATINGS; PLEASE CONTACT ME IF YOU DO NOT RECEIVE A SWAP BEFORE RATING ME. I ALWAYS SEND AND STRIVE TO KEEP A GOOD RATING. I'm 64 yrs young and live with my wonderful husband of 42 yrs in Rhode Island I have a sweet, pampered kitty named Chloe (we refer to her as the "Queen"). I'm "Grammy" to 4 beautiful grandchildren, 3 girls and a boy, and to my nephew's children. I LOVE being a grandmother. I'm a diabetic (2yrs) and a breast cancer survivor (15 yrs). I'm a christian and believe every day is a gift from God.

Sports

I lift weights and do aerobics 3 times a week. I participate in water aerobics classes and a kickboxing class.I also do pilates. I learned to swim when I was 50 and golf when I was 59. I love Disneyworld and started riding the roller- coasters and The Tower of Terror when I was 60. My favorite ride is Space Mountain.

Hobbies

I knit, crochet, needlepoint, crosstitch, paint and scrapbook. I'm always looking for some new craft to try. I also love photography especially black and white. I love to garden and atrract Butterflies and Hummingbirds to my yard. I have been with Swap-bot for over a year and have corresponded with many great people. I mostly sign for craft swaps--ATCs, skinnies, chunky books and pages, matchboxes and dotees. I also swap postcards and greeting cards. I would love to learn more about FBs.

Favorite Movies

I like most movies except horror films. Some of my favorites are Lord of the Rings, Star Wars, Harry Potter, Shall we Dance and the last one I saw Mama Mia.

Favorite Music

Classical , soundtracks and my granddaughter playing the violin.

Favorite Television

Mysteries,old TV shows, gardening, decorating and craft shows. I got my oldest granddaughter interested decorating shows when she was little and at 11, she still watches them.

Favorite Books

I like to read mysteries especially British "cozies". Always looking for new authors.

Colors

I like most bright colors but my favorite would be pink for breast cancer awareness. My husband says I'll practically buy anything with a pink ribbon on it.

Likes

I love cats and most animals. I like to feed and watch the birds.(my cat is an indoor cat because of the birds and coyotes). I love Disney. Besides Mickey and Minnie, my favorite characters are Chip & Dale and Dory, the blue fish from Finding Nemo. My husband has started to call me "Dory"(hence my user name) because I identify with the little fish with the bad memory. I also like seashells and butterflies.

Dislike

Anything off-color, horror or profane.
