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

Comment: Lovely ATC, thank you. And I agree that international postage is becoming an issue. Please keep on with the UK swaps.
Response: Thank you Beverly. Regarding swaps, I am hoping to set quite a few up next year. I thought it would be best to wait now till the Christmas / New Year period is over. Thank you again for taking part, Carol x

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.

PinkyPao on Jan 6, 2012:

Profile swaps! Like profile based, a small £ is ok with me ^^ xx
