9/09: If anything arrives to you postage-due - Please pay it - I WILL re-imburse you!! You have no idea what problems I am having with this post office. So... really - Contact me if I didn't put enough stamps on your envelope.

7/06: Thank you so much, suvi in Finland, for angeling the Disney post card, to me. It is so pretty. You are so kind. Thank you.

Me in a nut-shell:

In a nut-shell, the only thing that I reallly really like, or, reallllly matters to me, is, the ways of Heaven, and, the Foundational Precepts of the U.S.A. Everything else is pretty much fun and games.

Now.. for the Swap-Bot stats:

I'm a definite night-owl, widow, mother of adult twin sons, and, grandmother to a 4 y.o. adorable little girl.
I am also part of the Soldiers Angels.

I like most anything pen-pal/desk/office related, renoir, champagne, slams, magazines, sugar-free, or, fruit-juice sweetened pastries/cookies/candy/snacks/etc, coffees/teas, glass, blank notecards, burned cd/dvds, long hair accessories, horse-back riding, purses, surfing, ancient comic strips, ancient to pre- '90's comic books, samples, stickers, sparkly, nanotech, histories, and, more - and Especially any stuff from overseas, that I can't get here in southern Oregon or Cali.

I like anything I can use for entertaining and, paper deco-ing. Also, items with a travel, & pink poodle theme. Also, scottie, gingerbreadman, pretty stars, tulips, berries, shamrocks, cupcakes, marie-cat, lovely white, coffee, ballet, dance, whimsical, swans, feminine, pitchers, any pre-sixties disney, paddington bear, seahorse, rustic, tuscan, pepe la pew, Madelaine, horses, abstract, or, ultra-modern theme.
Unique, and, off-the-beaten track finds, too.
I love creativity, individuality, and, "artsy".

During summer, I usually go on a Hawaiian kick.

Please don't limit what you might send me according to my "likes", because, I really love a lot, and, really love surprises,and, I love to try new things, and would love to receive something you would send, or, make, even if it has nothing to do with my "likes".

That is one of the reasons I am here - to experience new things, and, the unique, and creativity, of swaps you conceive . (Plus the fact, I love swapping)

I am Very easy to please - and - thank you for accepting me into swap-bot. oh, also - sugar-free anythings would be my first choice, but, regular is okay - Oh, and, I don't mean to be difficult, but, though I love chocolate, I DETEST chocolate chips or m & m's. (mea culpa!)

Oh, I'm also not too crazy about Mary Engelbreit, rose decor, nor fringe, either. Also not crazy about a picture, with a word telling what the picture is - ie: a picture of an apple on a towel, and, the word " apple " on it... Like, I can't figure out it's an apple?

My favorite colors would probably be categorized as: Seasonal.

I also want to say, that, I am not here to bust your bank account - I'm here just to have fun.

hawaiian, at the moment.. or french. .. röyksopp.. a good sax .. blasting idiots, tchaikovsky, diamond in the rough.. christmas carols, ravel, instrumentals, gary moore, background loungey, off-the-beaten-track singers .. but, as i said above, i am open to pretty much everything.. i'd love to hear what you like.

grand prix, of human hearts, south pacific, a man and a woman, american in paris, the blue lamp, the visitors, the unknown, endless summer, umbrellas of cherbourg, bonjour tristesse, sunset boulevard, earlier sci-fi, robinson crusoe on mars, ride the wild surf, the red shoes, oh! so many, and, some moody, film-noir ones, many older ones.. i am also just discovering the silent film genre that i find fascinating.

Well, after literally decades without watching TV, I finally bought one, mainly for sons/guests to watch ..

Right now, I guess my fave show would be Sons of Anarchy.

deco-ing slam covers ..

Well, it's been a long while, so I don't really remember the amount, but, Elizabeth4510 never sent a bunch of slams to me. And - it was her swap in Her group! Strange.. oh well..

11/1/09 ~ Craftzilla ~ International Sauce/Spice/Meal Pack swap #2. Supposed to be sent by 10/7. Sigh.. I would've been fun to taste something from Norway.

11/4 : Glowingstar - Shaped Post Card swap was due out 10/5. http://www.swap-bot.com/swap/show/45890 Not rec'd yet.
