I am the mother of three and the grandmother of seven. Married for 38 years to the same partner. I feel I've seen a glimpse of Hades the last several years and have gone through many life changing situations. I am a retired survivor of 26 years of group child daycare. Loved most every day of it. I have one Pekingese an two Maltese that share my home as well as two large tomcats and one small female kitty.They all like each other and share their blanket well. I like gardening in my small yard even if everything don't grow or if things get taken. I like "yard stuff". My favorite collectible is Betty Boop.I love love love anything Betty Boop. I like to collect key chains new or used, shadowbox miniatures, miniature perfume bottles with or without contents, old and/or unique buttons and button covers, tie tacks, canceled postage stamps and the jokers from the decks of playing cards are a hit with me. I love the uniqueness of them. My favorite color is any pretty green but I like most colors. I do not consume anything that contains aspartame or any other like sweeteners because they give me instant migraine. I like white and green teas but no black tea. My favorite flavor is most anything cherry. I do read some and like bookmarks. I like to use a lot of recycling in my crafts.

I very much enjoy making and receiving ATCs. I also like to scrapbook, make my own key chains and bracelets with beads(no plastic) and lots of dangle charms. I love using beads, ribbons, rickrack, fabric, sequins, lace, embroidery floss, brads, unique buttons & unique yarns in my crafting. I have now discovered inches.
