Happy New Year!!!

Hello, I am Angelia, I am a 43 year old Christian from Oklahoma. Born in Southern Illinois there 8 years, lived in California 5 1/2 years, Texas 2 years, and Oklahoma currently 29 years. Wouldn't trade the moving around for anything, I learned so much.

I am happily married for 24 years,Jan. 7th, and a mother of two teenagers(oh my), my son is 18 & my daughter is 20.

I'm an amimal lover, I have 2 cats - Gabby 4, Barney 15, 2 puppies Smokey and Bandit both are19 months, and 2 fish. I lost My Sheltie Baxter(11 years) in September, to lupus. He is greatly missed.

I have my own janitorial service, and having obsessive compulsive disorder I have done really well in having a cleaning service. I have a BA in history and I love history, but can make a better living with my janitorial business.

I listen mostly to christian of all kinds I just love KLove radio. I also listen to country, bluegrass and the oldies from 70's & 80's. (Can't believe their oldies now)

I love to read, but it's hard to choose my time between art and reading. I have a janitorial service and get reading time in by listening to audio books as I clean. We just love Audible.com, we use it a lot.

Favorite type of book, cooking mysteries, archeology mysteries, vampire romance, adventures, Historical romances dealing with ships, & pirates, but I am willing to try anything.

My favorite books as of now are The Argeneau Series by Lynsay Sands, The Last Jihad series by Joel Rosenberg, also his new trilogy The Twelfth Imam. This Presence Darkness & Pierceing the Darkness by Frank Peretti. Joanne Fluke mysteries series. The Fargo adventures by Clive Cussler.

I don't watch much TV I watch Fox News and the local news, but I'd rather craft or read. A new favorite Movie: The Hungar Games. I like many older movies The Quiet Man, The African Queen, Donavan's Reef, Operation Petticoat,many more like these. I also like action/adventures, like Hunt for Red October, Bourne Identity, Tomb Radier, and others like this.

I love Mini albums, junk journals & stuff for them, zentangles, ATC's, inchies, cross stitching, scrapbooking, reading, gardening and cooking. I do some sewing, but have a hard time squeezing it in with everything else.

I love the color green, blue, burgundy and purple, but like most all colors. I like the combinations of green & pink, blue & brown, pink & brown and black & white I am not a fan of the pastel colors. I like the darker shades, bright colors and jewel tones.

I love anything someone takes time to put together for me. Its not what you get as much as someone is thinking of you. Here are my likes:

I will mail my swaps on time (as I am at the post office quite a bit). If for some reason you have not received your swap please let me know and I will search for it and/or resend if needed.

I will also rate the same day I receive your swap.
