About Me

I am 53, married with two grown up children and a two year old Grandson.

I have chronic fatigue syndrome and haven't worked in paid employment for 29 years. I keep busy by doing voluntary work plus minding my Grandson two days each week.

I have been a committed Christian for 25 years.

I enjoy many hobbies, writing, reading, playing online Scrabble, singing, making greetings cards and scrapbooking. I have just started to make ATC's which I find am hooked on, I love anything miniature.

If you are expecting a swap from me and it doesn't arrive within a reasonable time PLEASE let me know. I will rectify the problem as soon as possible. I will NEVER join a swap unless I am 100% sure that I can and will meet the requirements.

Favorite Music

I love all kinds of music and I love singing to all kinds of songs! A lot of my favourite songs are songs that were in the charts during the 70's and 80's.

Favorite Books

My all time favourite book is "3 men in a boat" by Jerome K Jerome. I like all Jane Austen's books. Love books by Bill Bryson Love autobiographical or biographical books. Love books by Lynne Truss ................I just LOVE books :-)

Favorite Crafts

I love making greetings cards and scrapbooking. I have just started to make ATC's which I find fascinating. Inspite of my love of crafting I am not at all artistic so use rubber stamps, peeloffs etc to make my cards. However, I don't just stamp or stick, I embelish my work to enhance it as much as I can.

Favorite Television

I don't watch much TV but one programme that I have been enjoying watching recently has been "Secret Millionaire".

Likes

The colours Yellow and Lilac Rainbows or anything rainbow-striped. Robins..... (english ones) Victorian stuff. Vintage stuff. Flowers. Hearts. All things "Christian" Snow ..... snowy scenes. Sunshine

I'm happy to welcome you to the group Sharing God's Grace. Please join us and tell us a bit about yourself!

Did you ever have a chance to read my post below regarding the round robin ATC swap we participated in together?

clutterfree on Mar 8, 2012:

Carol....Thank you for the wonderful letter I received today for the OFAP letter tag:) The timing of your "Carol take me away letter" was perfect for me to connect to another adult today when I had so many babies I was caring for!!! I enjoyed getting to know you, your family, and your sharing of the attraction in your community..."Crooked Spire" is fascinating:) I am curious though...what is the weather like for you this time of year?...HUGS!!

Did you see my message below?

Kimbeewa on Jan 23, 2012:

Hi there, I notice you are back swapping again. Is there any way you can send on the Round Robin ATCs that were with you when you stopped swapping? I know it's been awhile, but a lot of people were really excited about that RR group. Let me know.
