I am 40 years, and live with my boyfriend. We have 6 cats (Allison, Grayson, Maverick, Shadow, Peanut, and Fiona), no kids, but I do have an adorable niece and nephew.

My boyfriend and I buy, fix up and sell houses, though this has been slowing down lately due to the economy. I love playing Texas hold-em poker but lately have only been playing online, working on my crafts, reading, gardening(herbs), Detroit Red Wings, and hockey in general, University of Michigan Football. I love to shop, some of my favorite stores are Borders, Barnes and Noble, Joanns etc, Ross, Target, Ulta, stampworks, Paper Studio, skybluepink, Amazon..
I absolutely love Christmas, everything about it, I love when the stores start getting all set up for it, I never think it's too early. I love Christmas music also, during the holiday I listen to the 24 hour christmas station.
I collect nesting dolls, cat stuff, figurines(cats, cute chickens, cute bunnies, cute cows, cute hedgehogs),CharmmyKitty, Mixed Cats, Nyanko cats, Lilliput Lane houses, small, unique figurines from other countries.
I LOVE coins from different countries and printed matter in foreign languages (old books, mags, comic books, kids books, newspaper pages).
I love general craft and papercrafting (not scrapbooking) magazines from other countries, preferably in English, but if they have lots of pics and diagrams, then another language is fine.
I love coffee, but due to complications from acid reflux disease, I only drink a cup every couple of weeks now. :(
And I absolutely love Jelly Belly's and Peeps.
My favorite colors are
pink
pink/black
red
lime green/yellow/purple
denim blue
olive green
no orange(ok for halloween), but just about anything else really.
I love paisley patterns and boho patterns.
I love vintage and retro, especially stuff from 40s/50s/60s kitchen design.
I don't like anything victorian, or lacey.
Scentwise, I like:
baked goods
sweet scents
especially buttercream
no lemon or vanilla
I also like:
lavendar
pomgrante
lavendar basil
sweet pea
nothing with rose or jasmine please
I love cats! (in case you couldn't tell)
Dislikes
Lemon scented items
Citrus scented items, except for orange with cloves
Rose scented items
Jasmine scented items
Strong flowery scents
Orange as a main color, halloween ok
clowns
insects
Allergies
I have some uncommon allergies and it is not always easy to determine if a food has them or not. If you happen to send something that I cannot have or use, I have three other people who are more than happy to receive unexpected goodies, so nothing will go to waste. I will not have a reaction from just smelling something, so you don't have to worry about this if you do send something. I am allergic to the following:
Coconut and Coconut Oil
Olives and Olive Oil
Sulfites (preservative)
MSG (additive)
Matchbox Twenty, Def Leppard, Motown, Enrique, Rod Stewart, Cher, Prince, Shania Twain, Weird Al, Daniel Powter, The Fray, Fergie, bowling for Soup, Aretha Franklin, Bare Naked Ladies, Everclear, Mary J Blige, Kid Rock, Uncle Cracker, Eminen, Bette Midler.....

Trades list
This is more of a list of things that I can never have enough of, rather than a true wishlist, as I like surprises
charms
metal embellishments
fibers
1950's kitchen themed items
micro beads
mint tins
collage sheets
miniature things
anything related to my likes
shrink plastic
gift cards for Michael's, Joanns, Amazon, or ebay in any amount would never go to waste.
I know that the following items are on the pricey side and I am not expecting them, but I know that there are times when I've purchased something, tried it, and found out that I don't like it or just end up not using it and would rather pass it on to someone else rather than just letting it sit. So, except for minor use, these items are still perfectly good, just not brand new, if you have any of this kind of stuff that you do not want anymore and would like to set up a trade, just send me a pm.
alcohol or dye inks
bookbinding tape or paper
fantastix coloring tools
walnut ink crystals(not liquid)
perfect pearls
would love to try twinkling H2O's
anything from my Amazon wishlist
