Hi! My name is Michelle. I"m 38 years old. I am a Mom to an 18 year old son. We have a cat, Mercedes, who rules the house from the door knobs and down. We are outdoorsy, hunt, fish, hike and during the work week we are working professionals.

Things I like: tea, ciders, Pineapple and Strawberry Crush drink packets and Dr. Pepper.

Geometric shapes, Hello Kitty, Snowmen, Cats, Gerbena Daisies, learning things about other cultures, postcards, Tuesday Night Trivia, punny/dad jokes.

I listen to such a wide variety of music it scares most people. I listen to music that is both popular in the US, artists from other countries, and across a wide variety of genres. A smile is the only thing that out does my belief that music is one thing that transcends every culture.

I enjoy reading and much like my music I don't exactly read a lot of "main stream stuff."

I use my public library to listen to audio books via overdrive and/or Libby. I also enjoy Librovox.org books.

I actively track on Good Reads. Link to my account is above.

I like standard sized postcards.

I like a postcard that says stuff on it (example The front contains an Elk. I like when the back says "This is an elk, native animal to the mountain regions of the US and eastern Asia. It eats plant matter, sheds it's horns in the spring and typically females have one calf in the spring."

Instead of "Elk--Cervus Canadensis")

I like animals, scenery, cats, hedgehogs, pigs, quilts, pretty much anything really.

If you have an odd, dirty, or inappropriate postcard, or one that you ended up with and you simply do not know where to use it....please send it my way and let me know that it is a postcard of this nature.

Most of what I have access to in my area is tourist postcards and love getting non-tourist postcards that are blank for sending.

I also participate with postcrossing.com

For the 2nd time in a four year relationship my boyfriend and I will be living apart from one another. It's a long story but I promise you'd understand our reasons.

Since we will be 3 hours away (the previous time was 12 hours by train & 3 hours in the car) I plan to resume my postcard and letter writing.

He loves dinosaurs! If you have any dinosaur note-cards, postcards, or stickers I would love them. He is especially fond of T-Rex.

He hopes to one day work on a fossil dig.

I also live 2 hours in the other direction from my siblings, niece, and parents. I am blessed to have an aunt and a few cousins here in town, so I'm not totally alone!

if you do not know what geocaching is www.geocaching.com

I'm washington_maverick on there as well. I have over 1800 finds. I do participate with trackables and within a short amount of time can hit WA, OR, and ID (Please do NOT purchase a new trackable for me. I will pass them along but do not wish to own my own).

Because of this hobby I am always looking for small items to leave in caches like mini toys, small pens/pencils, match box cars, etc.

I am also an avid Pokemon Go Player! I am Team Mystic and My favorite Pokemon is actually SPOINK! He makes me smile ever time I see him!

My family and I do a "Calendars & Mint Party." At this party we fill out our calendars for the coming year with birthdays, anniversaries and dates to remember loved ones who have passed. We also make a buttercream mint and somebody has a random craft.

We produce complete with stickers 10-12 calendars a year for our use.

Seeking the following stickers small enough for a calendar square:

--January 1st like fireworks --Milk --Milk & Cookies
--Dr Pepper --Tools (like car or woodworking)
--Tire stickers --Wolverine --The Blue Ninja Turtle
--Sport Teams (Green Bay Packers, The Bears, and Denver Broncos, 49ers and Seahawks) --Small Hearts --Small Stars --Wedding Anniversary sticker (the ones that say "Anniversary") --Thanksgiving --Tiny groundhog --crosses/nativity
