About Me

27th June 2012 Training all complete and now with new mentor. It is great to be able to help someone who having problems with their family history. If you are into doing this check out https://www.familysearch.org/

Will be away on holiday from Friday 29th June - Saturday 7th July. Will rate any swaps when get back, thanks in advance

Hi there,

If hosting swaps and get a little behind in assigning partners please PM me as I get caught up with my other responsibilities.

I am married to a wonderful man who has waited a long time for me (poor soul) but must have been worth the wait, lol. I have a teenage son who is studing at Victoria Uni so the house is kind of quiet. My other family include 2 cats (Cleo & Katy - mother & daughter), a rabbit (Areon), 2 budgies (Pretty Boy & Emma). We since have acquired another rabbit (melody), three guinea pigs (2 boys and 1 girl) our girl had babies who are now 3wks old today. She had 4 beautiful darlings.

I am a stay at home wife who loves to do all the wifey things. I love making handmade things and gifts as you cant beat something made with love.

I have decided to take a year off study and go back to it in 2013 which means I will study for my Bachlor of Fine Arts - Raranga (Maori Weaving). Last year was hard but great as it has taught me heaps and looking forward to learning more in the future. In the end I would love to be there for the enviroment in conservation and preservation of the plants we use to weave for future generations.

Comment: Thx for the flower embellishments, pretty ribbon, black gems, and small alphabet stamps - I also liked the fun paper you chose for the book! I really hate giving anything other than a 5 rating, but I think a 3 is fair in this case. You pmd me after the swap deadline, on June 19, to advise you would be late making and sending this swap and would get it mailed "later that week". On June 23 you pmd me that you did not get it made and would be sending it out "in the coming week". You clicked sent on June 26 but the postage sticker issued by the Post Office is dated June 27. All of this could have been avoided had you contacted me by the swap deadline about being late. Sorry.
Response: If the post is in just on 5pm then it doesn't go till the next day. That will explain the following date stamp and there isn't much I can do. I'm sorry about that but glad you liked what I made for you.

Comment: What an awesome sight those caves must be (... but if you have to go inside caves to see the awesomeness... thank goodness for postcards)! I am too claustrophobic to go into caves... but, they are magnificent. Thanks so much for sharing this wonderful postcard with me.
Response: Yes isn't wonderful to travel the world for the price of a postage stamp. And look at all the awesome places we get to see too. Thank you for the rating and am glad you liked my pc.

Comment: thank you for the lovely mail art envelope & postcards you included :) loved having a bit of sunshine in my mailbox :)
Response: I'm glad you liked the envie. I wanted to try out my rather basic paint set I bought and quite frankly I don't know why I didn't get one earlier. It's so much fun and the possibilities are endless. Thanks for the rating and glad you liked.

Comment: Anita, thank you so much for the Native Birds card! I really like it, though one of the birds cannot fly (Kiwi) :)
Response: You are right about the Kiwi not being able to fly but it does have wings but very small. Sorry about that, I wanted to share more of what we have here

kittenred on Jun 22, 2012:

I'm sorry to read that you haven't been well and I hope that you get better soon, but I am concerned as you have not yet sent out your photo challenge #1 swap or let your partner know if there was going to be a delay. I hope you are able to come back soon to take care of things! :)
