About Me

Hi, New here and looking forward to jumping in on some swaps with you... I am a working mom of one high school student still living at home, married to DH for many years. My DD is trying to get me more active in posting photos on the web so I have been working on doing that. I have a weakness for purses,totes and handbags so when I am not spending money on crafting supplies I am usually looking for new handbags. I love to swap and consider myself a fair-flaker free player so if you have issues I hope you will contact me first to resolve them before leaving any negative feedback. I try to send an e-mail to you let you know when your package has been mailed and also when it has been received. Looking forward to swapping with you in the future.

Favorite Music

I love a variety of music, listen to alot of 80"s some jazz,new age, older rock and roll classics, lately alot of Hinder,Blue October,Nickleback,Amy Winehouse and the soundtrack to Across the Universe which updates alot of Beatles songs. I DO NOT listen to country music.

Favorite Books

I don't take much time to read however I do spend alot of time looking at my craft magazines and books that my DH calls my "picture books". Most of the books I do read are craft related ones.

Favorite Movies

We enjoy a variety of movies and tend to go to alot of movies on our weekends.

Favorite Television

I am a big HGTV and DIY fan. Love those home improvement shows. CSI and lately I have been watching Forensic files and shows similar to these.
