About Me

Hi! I always try to send what I would like to get myself- please contact me if there is a problem and I will resend -before you rate. I am married and the mother of 3. I have two dogs- shih tzus and a turtle!! I am a former teacher. I provide daycare out of my home. I am a runner. I do not look like a runner and I am slow but I love it!! I love artjournalling (paper etc.), watercolor, carving stamps(pink erasers!!) and acrylics and I also love cross-stich! ...

favorites

I love rock-n-roll and alternative(not much of a country or rap fan). I read mysteries and suspense. I love macintosh apples. I enjoy hand-made items and hand-written letters. I collect rocks shaped like hearts(or photos of). I like vanilla and lavender fragrances. Diet-coke, Cheerios and Chocolate(milk and dark) are yummy!!! I enjoy trying new recipes( but have 3 kids so not too spicy)!!! I drink spiced tea(Good Earth Original) and also collect magnets. I really enjoy things that people make themselves!! I love the ocean (blue, turquoise, sand, shells, swirls and waves) I love all colors...especially earthy colors and my house has these colors ( like terra cotta, brick red, gold, and sage green) my craft room is more of pink, ltblue, red, ltgreen and I wear lots of colors. I love black and white (I am a blue jeans girl) .

other considerations

Please do not send religious items. I am religious. I just prefer not to get these items. I prefer not to get dollar store items(I like things that are handmade instead).Please no Disney-I like Disney I just prefer not to get these items through swaps. I do not need reward stickers. I do not like to get items that are gory or dark. Blood is gross. I do not wear make-up very often (lip balm ok). I do not like black licorice and peas and pickles!!!

So glad everything arrived safe and you liked it - I realised I didn't take a photo before sending it out, so I had to put on my thinking cap with one or two things you mentioned in your comment :o) Well, guess you know you do to much swapping when have to take photos to remember what you sent.......well, not really...... See you in the forums! Best wishes, Mello
