About Me

I am 55 years young, married of 37 years. I am a school cafeteria manager in a small school. We have 2 daughters, 32 and 29, and a set of twin granddaughters who will be turning 11 in August. I have been crafting for many years. I have just discovered AB. It's amazing how fast your mind can work and be able to put something together and how well it all falls into place. I have finished my third AB for my granddaughters THey are titled Wishes.with their names on fronts. I collect teapots, lighthouses, folk art, paperweights, fabric, I love the fat quarters(,I can't get enough of those), pretty buttons. I love vintage material, especially the feed sack variety. Reminds me of my grandmas. I like warm country colors. We just remodeled our living room and I have nothing on the walls yet. I like anything primitive and folksy art. I am not hard to please. I work outside a lot in my flower gardens. I have a water garden with lots of flowers around it. I also like to roller blade with my granddaughters and their other grandma. We are called "Tootsie Rollers. Also, I would like to say that I would not send anything that I would not like myself. I am a very passionate person, sometimes too much. There are times that I get feeling about someone that I feel that is just not right. Then worry about the outcome. If at anytime that someone receives anything from me that they do not like, please personally e-mail me and I will be gladly make it right with you. I look at each individual's profile and try my best to meet their likes and dislikes. But, as we all know you can please ALL people SOME of the time, but you can`t please ALL people ALL of the time.

Comment: I haven't received anything yet. 5/23 swap ended 5/14-----5/28 still nothing I will change once I receive. 5/28 I got a nasty email and this is my reply #1 do not get nasty with me. The rating states it will change when it arrives. If I sent something and it hadn't arrived yet and it's been a good amount of time and I get a rating like that I sure wouldn't complain about it. It's late. Big deal, I will change the rating appropriately when it arrives. But if you get nasty with someone you need to be careful because they might just say they didn't get it at all and leave you with a 1. But I'm not like that. 5/29 I continue to get nasty emails from this person because I gave her a rating of one stating I haven't received it yet. As I stated above I would rerate when it is received. Well I got another email quoting my own words in regards to courtesy. I told her to just forget it don't bother sending another I don't need this stress. If I receive it I will let her know. And she still continues on. So yes I am giving her back her 1 rating which I had taken away at one point cause she was so upset and nasty, I thought ok I'll be nice and just wish to not rate at this time. Till she continues to try and berate me. I don't need this. 2:57pm CA 5/30 She emailed me on the 5/14 stating she had mailed my block that day. Well not only has she been nasty she has also lied. The package was mailed from the post office and it is dated 5/16/07. Not only that but the antique hankie has a black mark on it, and the embroidered letter H. has 3 brown stains in the stitching. I like victorian but not dirty things. I don't even know how it made it here which is why it took longer to get here, she had the zipcode wrong, scratched it out and re-wrote it. But thanks for trying. I will post pictures on my site after I serve dinner. http://www.flickr.com/photos/craftlover10101/
Response: I don't understand why you would rate me a 1. I have been in contact with you and told you when it was mailed. I don't understand why you haven't received it yet, and why I haven't gotten it back since I had my return address on it. This is very sad. The e-mails I sent were not to be read nasty. You chose to read them that way. I have no other comments at this time.
