The key to my "heart"

I'm a senior angel committed to sending notes, letters, etc. to a senior citizen at least twice each week. I love to have a variety of notes/stationary (loose sheets would be wonderful -- even if they're folded!)/stickers to send to my senior. If you have any of these to tuck in with a swap you'd make me and my senior smile!

About Me

I'm a thirty-something stay-at-home, homeschooling mom. My hobbies are knitting, reading, needle felting, reading, sketching, reading... :)

I like

words, books, magazines, zines, coffee, tea (especially Teekanne from Germany and Davidson's), cocoa, leaves, trees, peppermint, squirrels, sunshine, rain, caramel, quiet, classical and acoustic guitar, chocolate (the darker the better!), surprises, flowers, letters, art, sheep, alpacas, yarn, international foods and drinks, soft things, warm things, vanilla, chocolate and cinnamon together, stories, lollipops, handwritten letters or even typed letters, Pigma Micron pens, Zig pens, ATC supplies, your favorite book (or a list of your favorite books, even!), songs, and socks in crazy colors...

I would really like

something to hold my growing collection of ATCs!!! And also, to receive letters and any artistic endeavors you'd like to undertake and share with me. Although I don't do paper crafts I still appreciate the art. I'd love to receive your ATCs,sketches, paintings, photos, poems, stories, songs, knit things, crochet things, sewn things... anything you'd like to share will have a place of honor in our home.

Colors, colors, colors

I like earth colors; greens, earthy blues, taupe (okay, all shades of brown), deep reds, mauve. Let me put it this way. If I ever wore anything bright my mother would faint. Then again -- if you've seen those self-patterning socks yarns? I do have some pretty wild socks... (oh, and for the sock yarns -- please no Maizy [the yarn made from corn] or alpaca blends -- they're itchy on my feet!). :) Oh yeah, and I love purple and orange -- together.
