Hi everyone. I really like the idea of swapping. It is very interesting and fun to me. I live in the United States - Pittsburgh, Pennyslvania and the shipping here is really pretty good, so I should not have any problems shipping anything. I work in an office and I have the perfect view of both of our sports stadiums and the river.

When I get home from work I like to do a lot of different things in my spare time. The best thing I like to do is play with my two dogs-lab mixes (Poppy & Jack). They are my boys and my babies and so spoiled. But they deserve to be, so I don't mind at all. Just got a puppy, Gracie, she is a lab mix also, so now I have three babies to play with and spoil. I mention them down below, but in case you miss it, I know that they would absolutely love toys - pull toys, balls, stuffed animals and bandanas. We even have stockings for them and they have coats for when it is cold outside. They are so spoiled but I would not have any other way. They definitely deserve it for everything that they do for me.

I also like to watch tv to relax. I take a lot of pictures of anything and everything and I like to put together scrapbooks.

I like to think I have a good sense of humor, so not much offends me. Feel free to send something that you think is funny, I'm sure I will also. I am pretty open minded. Although I don't like cruelty to animals.

I like soft rock, instrumental, 80's music, a few country songs, rock-n-roll. There have been a few slow type songs that I have heard and started to cry because of the mood I was in at the time. I then had to go out and buy the cd. I also like upbeat music, the kind that you just want to turn up the volume and attempt to sing the words yourself. I'm not a good singer.

When I do read, which is not to often, I like non-fiction, I like to learn about people and history, but an occasional fiction book is also good. I also like to read about ghost stories, not Casper type stories but stories about real hauntings.

I love to watch tv. It is good escapism. I watch anything from comedy to drama to reality. I look forward to watching tv if I am having a bad day. I even tape shows when I'm at work so that I can watch them later. I really like NCIS, Bones, Big Bang Theory, Psych, White Collar, Criminal Minds, Nikita and reality tv -(American Pickers, Ghost Adventures, Auction Hunters, Pit Boss).

I like to take pictures and make scrapbooks. I like the idea of putting something together that I made for someone else. I don't sew so really any other kind of craft I like. For my scrapbooking, it would be great if I could get the basics - stickers, paper, borders, ribbon, pens, tools etc. There is such an accomplishment after you are done making something for someone else. I really like that feeling.
