July 15, 2013...I'll be having back fusion surgery tomorrow, so I won't be able to rate swaps received for awhile. Thank you for understanding.
September 10, 2014. Another back surgery. If I receive any swaps, I will rate asap.
DECEMBER 5, 2014----i want to let y'all know that I came to the hospital by ambulance several days ago after a black out that lasted about 20 minutes. I've had lots of tests, scans, and ultrasound and they've said it was not a stroke or seizure. Today they implanted a heart monitor in my chest and I thought I'd be released, but it didn't happen. So I want to.let you. all know that I will be late sendimg out some swaps and will be late with a bunch of ratings. I will send them out asap. Please know that I am not a flaker.. Marsha
July, 2017...Just an update...I've had several more surgeries and probably will have another one soon. My back is in constant pain. Hubby is dealing with back pain too. We decided to sell our house and move to an independent living place, mainly since neither of us can cook or do housework any more. This place is tiny, but we like it. I had to sell a lot of my craft stuff. I'm hoping to still be able to do some swaps. I'm a Christian ALnd enjoy being involved in church activities. I'm married to my best friend. I like spending time with my kids and grands, anything to do with my hobbies of stamping, making greeting cards and swapping ATCs. We adopted an elderly Cairn terrier from the shelter in May, 2014. Her name is Flossie, and she is a very good little dog, and very cuddly We had to take Flossie back to the shelter in late Maech, 2017.. My heart is still hurting. I loved her so much even though she got very mean and was biting us. I also love giraffes and birds, and I like to collect stationery to use in my letter writing. I enjoy finding "treasures" at garage sales and thrift stores I like tea (except for English Breakfast and flowery flavors). Love anything peanut butter, milk chocolate and white chocolate. We began using some essential oils in 2016. We have 2 diffusers and especially like to use peppermint oil in them. I use it for my bad headaches...just rubbing it on my forehead often. I use it straight from the bottle, but some people mix it with coconut oil or a lotion. Flower scents and cigarette smoke make me sick. I do enjoy spicey, fruit and vanilla scents. And I don't like anything Halloween.
I love all colors, but orange is my least favorite. I do use it occasionally, especially on Autumn cards.
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE DO NOT SEND ME ANYTHING WITH SNAKES, SPIDERS, SKULLS, HALLOWEEN, OR NUDITY (EVEN PARTIALLY NUDE). I DO NOT LIKE WANT TO THROW YOUR ARTWORK AWAY.

Rubberstamping and ATCs. I like "tasteful" ATCs - none with even partial nudity or very weird and nothing from the dark side, no Halloween and no skulls. Please, nothing with snakes or spiders on. I'm very afraid of both. Also, I'd prefer not to receive any religious items,
The Bible, Christian novels, books about the Amish, anything about papercrafting. I like any papercrafting magazines. Favorites are anything from Stampington. Also, I love to read cookbooks.

My Sister continues to have back pain despite 2 spine surgeries to remove bone spurs, help her with the remaining nerve pain. I have researched buying her a walking seat she can use in the house & when we go out. Do you use a walker? We do have a wheel chair, it folds into the back of the SUV. - Kathy
