I apologize to everyone for the delay in receiving swaps. Just last night I found several that were ready to post, but had gotten mixed up with a pile of stuff on my desk. They will go postal tomorrow. Thanks for your patience and for not negatively rating me.

I dream of being a vagabond. I pass my days with a good book. I love to meet new people, I love to bake, and dream of owning a house by the ocean. My heart remains in California among the redwood trees.
