Favorite Crafts

I like most crafts. I just don't have the time right now to devote to them as much as I would like. I think I get more crafts done in the winter months than the summer months. I do a little quilting. Also a little counted crossstitch and jewelry making. I like to learn new things.
I am learning some paper crafting. I am also trying my hand at ATC's, inchies and matchboxes. I just love those little things. :) This year I am going to start doing family history and hope to get into the deepest darkest secrets of the family. LOL :):) I am excited to start and see what I come up with, anyway. :)

Favorite Books

I love to read. Whatever mood I am in. I have some vision problems and have found it harder to read as much as I like.
I love book markers!

Dr. Suess is the best ever and I love the Grinch-My favorite book is the Grinch Who Stole Christmas. I love all the Dr. Seuss books. I have several collection items from Dr. Seuss.

Favorite Music

Country music, 70's music, easy listening. Old music I grew up with Patsy Cline, Johnny Horton, Roger Miller, Neil Diamond, Barbara Striestand. Love Celine Dion, Cher, Faith Hill, Reba and Martina McBride.

Favorite Television

I like shows like CSI, Bones, House, NCIS, Crimnal Minds and investigate type shows. I do like reality tv it's so funny to watch those people making fools of themselves.

About Me

Hello everyone. I am a female 48 years old. I am a nurse by profession and find nursing the best career ever. I work from my home right now and love it. The hours are great and really flexible. I am married to my high school sweetheart and have 3 grown children(all boys) and grandchildren. I love being a grandma.

I am really organized and structured. Which some say is my downfall. :) Maybe I have control issues:) LOL

This year both my husband and myself have suffered from some medical conditions so somedays I am just glad I am alive.

I feel that I am easy to please and will love getting and giving lots of things. If I get something that I don't think is me I will probably find someone to make a home for it.

I try to recycle packages as much as possible. I think every little thing we can do will help our Earth is good. I really should do more than I do.

Likes

I love scented bath and body stuff. I use chap sticks and lip glosses. I do love post it notes and any office supply stuff that's interesting and fun.

My favorite color is blue. I love the color yellow and white with it also. I also love earth tones. I love Reeses' Peanut Butter cups they are soooooo good. I enjoy eating spice drops, hard candies-pretty much any flavor(I don't like chocolate mixed with mint)

I love daisies and wildflowers.

I am not a girlie girl sort with stuff.

Trees, pine cones and rocks are much more my type.

I love to watch and learn about animals, wildlife, tropical fish. I have enjoyed watching the wild birds by our house. I have several bird feeders and they come and eat all the food up. Seashells and fish theme is in my bathroom. Pine cones in my kitchen. Rustic country in the rest of the house.

I like rustic,antique and vintage things.

I have three dogs all australian shepard's. My husband and I breed them.

I have one cat.

I love to cook and can my own foods.

I like herbal teas(although have tons right now) and puzzle books, especially the variety puzzles. I try to work on a puzzle everyday to keep my mind sharp. Plus it's fun.

I love clocks and hope to someday have a huge collection of them.(a tradition from my grandfather and father) I recently just inheritied a spoon collect of my mom's and hope to continue collecting spoons in her honor.

I have disease called overlapping Lupus and there is a story of spoons, which helps others to understand the disease better, another reason I will continue to collect spoons.

I love bird houses and wind chimes and crystals to hang from my windows to reflect the sun.

Love butterflies, fire flies, ladybugs, humminbirds, drangonflys.

I love notecards, stationery and postcards.

Spring and fall are my favorite time of the year.

I love postcards-any kind I am seriously addicted.

Comment: Wonderful recipes I am looking forward to trying. Thank you very much!
Response: Thank you for your heart rating. I just got a recipe for detergent. It's easy and great and costs very little to make. I have been using it now for a month on my clothes and they are great. If you are interested pm and I will send it to you. It costs about $5 for a 5 gallon bucket which lasts forever.

Comment: Thanks for the interesting old buildings. The card looks striped on the back as if you'd taken it out of a magnetic photo album... I did that, too, when I started swapping postcards ;)
Response: Actually it was one that someone sent me so I am not sure if they had done that or not. I thought it was a cool old building. Buildings just fasinate me.

Comment: Was so excited to get this from you but then to see that you sent the exact same thing as my other partner (cutting off the personal note she wrote before photo copying her tips). This was also sent late which you did communicate with me would be late and I wasn't going to rate down for it. But I feel simply forwarding on what was sent to you is dishonest and sucks for me since we had the same person for a partner and I got the exact same thing twice. So, though I'd like to rate a 1, I've decided to rate a 3 since I did receive something. I would have rather waited longer to get something from you instead of just getting what your partner sent to you. EDIT: 11/9 I received one recipe (handwritten) for lip balm. The rest was Renegades stuff that she sent to you along with a few postcards and a bookmark. So these weren't "extra" tips and recipes. That is what I based my rating on.
Response: I am sure you are not rating me for the things I wrote and sent you rather just the things that I forwarded on to you so that you would have even more tips and treats. This is just a fun swap activity and you must rate as you see fit. Edit: 11/10--Nor worth it. This is a fun place and no negative should happen.

Comment: Thanks for the three Dr. Seuss quotations on the Ebey's Landing postcard. Do you know the source for "Don't cry because it's over, smile because it happened" quotation? Could not find the book title on google.
Response: It was in an old book I had on Dr. Seuss.
