First I love to swap. I will always send and rate. I have never flaked on a swap. If you have not received a swap from me please contact me and I will gladly resend. Swap bot for me is a fun way to relax and enjoy things from everyone who sends to me. I love giving and don't want to have unhappy partners if the mail system looses something.

I also try to recycle as much as I can so you may get packages that have been used a few times.

I am easy to please and if I receive something that I do not like or cannot use I will find it another happy home.

I truly love getting and giving postcards. I am seriously addicted.
I collect only those that are sent to me naked and written on.
Vintage is truly a favorite.

Other Favorites-nature, animals, water themed, vintage, fish, trees, unusual, flowers-especially daisies and wildflowers. butterflies.
If you have a postcard that you think nobody would like send it my way because I will most likely love it for my collection. I have all sorts and will love all that is sent to me.

I am 52 now. With age comes wisdon, experience and knowledge. At least I keep telling myself that. LOL

I am a nurse by profession.

I am married to my high school sweetheart and have 3 grown children(all boys) and a grown foster girl. I have grandchildren and love being a grandma.

I am really organized and structured, probably a weakness. My husband says I over do it sometimes. I say you can never be to prepared. LOL Or maybe it's a little OCD, lol. You never know. I am very frugal. I like to try and use things over and over and have a hard time throwing things away if I think I can still get use out of them. That said there are many things that I just clean up and throw away to get rid of them. Maybe I am wishy washy. LOL

I try to enjoy life. I love humor.

The last few years both my husband and myself have suffered from some medical conditions so somedays I am just glad I am alive and able to get through the day. Some days are not so easy to get through. I tell myself I have to take it one day at a time.

I am not a girlie girl sort, but also not a tom boy. Just kinda in the middle.

I love to watch and learn about anything. Knowledge is what we have to soar through life. Plus I always say it's good to learn something new everyday.

I do love post it notes and any office supply stuff. Although I am really stocked up right now.

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. Of course I love Peanut Butter too. I eat a peanut butter sandwich everyday for lunch. My husband thinks I am crazy on that subject too. To me PEANUT BUTTER ROCKS!! LOL

I love anything nurse related or themed and have a little shelf with all my nurse themed items.

A Few of my favorite things are anything with Daisies. I have my office decorated in Yellow, Blue, White, Dasies and Nurse related things. I love daisies and wildflowers.

I love birds. I have several bird feeders and will watch them for hours. I really love Peacocks and have a friend that has 18 on her ranch. I go and visit twice a year to get feathers.

Trees, pine cones and rocks. I love trees.

I like rustic, antique and vintage things.

I have three dogs all Australian Sheppard's. Badger-the boy, Dreamer and Kyah the girls.

I one cat, Lexie. We have a small herd of milk goats-Moe-the boy, Laryetta, Lizzy, Albalina, Carli and Marli.

I love to cook and can my own foods. I like to garden and grow my own veggies.

I like herbal teas(although have tons right now) and puzzle books, especially the variety puzzles.

I love clocks and hope to someday have a huge collection of them.(a tradition from my grandfather and father)

I inherited a spoon collect of my mom's and hope to continue collecting spoons in her honor. Any spoon you send would be loved a lot. Spoons are special to me because of a story about them and Lupus.

I love wind chimes. I had my husband add a few more hooks to the porch so next year there will be lots more noise on the porch. lol He will for sure go crazy with the noise.

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

I love notecards, stationery and postcards.

Spring and fall are my favorite time of the year.

I have disease called overlapping Lupus and there is a story of spoons, which helps others to understand the disease better, and another reason I will continue to collect spoons. I love the color purple and butterflies since they are the National symbols for Lupus. Anything with them on it would also be loved a lot.

My husband is oxygen dependent and disabled due to heart problems. We truly are a pair. lol

I will always try to read whatever I can. I will pretty much read anything. Books are books and in them we find wonderful stories and places that can take us anywhere.

Dr. Suess is the best ever author. I love the Grinch the best. I keep a collection of Grinch items always. You can never have to many. LOL I have a lot of Dr. Seuss books for the grandkids. They love reading them and so do I.

Since I love to read I also love bookmarkers to have in all my books.

What can I say here. I am fairly creative and try my hand at most crafts. I have done quilting, cross stitching, jewelery making. I also have done some ATC's, inchies and a little matchbox's. I am learning about altered journaling which I really like.. I am doing some card making and paper crafts. I really like to try my hand at anything.
I have been doing some Zentangles. Very addicting. I like it and will probably keep practicing those.

Any craft making supplies are always greatly appreciated.

I have several long term pen pals that I found on Swap bot. I have fun and enjoy the letters and cards I get. I am always up for more pen pals and if you are interested please let me know on your swap or pm me.
