About Me

ADDRESS UPDATED SEPTEMBER 2022. If you have a round robin/traveling swap to return to me, the P.O. Box 2472 is old. Please PM for new address!

I live in central Texas with three precocious cats, in order of age (NOT intelligence): LuLu (male), Groucho, and Chickadee (aka Dee Dee). I enjoy
* reading,
* paper crafting,
* journaling,
* planning,
* essential oils,
* knitting,
* gardening/xeriscaping,
* coloring,
* yoga,
* memory keeping smash book style,
* snail mail/pen palling/happy mail/postcards, and
* Bible journaling and study.

books

I have always loved to read. I especially like mystery/thriller types of novels (John Grisham, Dean Koontz, Lee & Child) and the occasional romance. My current favorite series is about Armand Gamache and is written by Louise Penny. I don't typically re-read fiction, but this series I plan to!

My favorite books are The Nightingale by Kristin Hannah and Watchers by Dean Koontz.

My non-fiction shelves consist primarily of Bible studies & theology, yoga, and genealogy & history reference.

I always have one hard copy fiction, one audible fiction, and 1-2 Bible studies going at a time.

media favorites

I enjoy television more than movies because I appreciate the talent it takes to keep the audience involved for years in a plot. All time favorites include Breaking Bad, The Sopranos, Alias, LOST, Big Bang Theory, and x-Files. I may have been a Survivor fanatic since it started. :)

I get hung up on fascinating podcasts sometimes. So much so that I want to take notes on them. Like Serial, Undisclosed, etc.

I spend too much time pinning things I'll never do on Pinterest or in craft swap Facebook groups.

craftiness

I enjoy knitting (I can only do parallelograms - nothing fancy! - but I'm all about the scarves and potholders) and genealogy.

I'm still trying to find my paper crafting niche....I'm experimenting with making cards, pocket letters, embellishments, flip books, etc. I also love playing with paint. I use journaling cards, stickers, ephemera, etc. in my journals and planners. I use napkins for Bible journaling. So many napkins and bits and pieces that I love...I need to get into collages and glue books!

current junk journal themes that I'm collecting things for: * frogs,
* beach/sea,
* tea time,
* farm animal,
* bear,
* mouse, * cardinals

journaling & planning

I love memory keeping (smash book style, a little Project Life style) and planning. I've had a paper planner all my life and I love seeing more people getting involved in it.

favorite things

I collect/hoard journals and notebooks and office supplies and paper crafting supplies and napkins. It's an obsession.

I also collect mouse figurines and images, Gorjuss girl mini stamps, and location/vacation spoons.

I love butterflies, dragonflies, cats, and mice so they show up in my crafting a lot, along with a general vintage style.

Favorite color is purple

snail mail stuff

POSTCARDS! I love collecting postcards around the world and am a postcrosser! Please write a little about yourself... what makes your town special, what you're currently reading, what your plans are for the weekend. anything!. I love them addressed, written on, stamped, and well traveled

sending/receiving swaps

I mark items sent once I leave in an outgoing mail box. If I leave after my daily mail delivery, I assume the postmark is after the next day's delivery (and pickup) but considering how slow my mailman is, I can't guarantee it is even processed the same day! I try to compensate for this unknown in my sending. :)

If you don't receive, please PM me before rating. I may have a tracking number or other information to locate it and I am always willing to resend.

I rate upon receipt because that what I want people to do for me!

Comment: Let me start out by saying if I could give you more than one heart for this swap I would. Not just because of all the swap goodies but also because of your work with Academy 4! I had never heard of that program, so I looked it up and liked their Facebook page. I love this idea of mentoring to 4th graders! I wish we had this in our church or area because I would definitely volunteer. I do have a daughter who lives in the Fort Worth/Dallas area, and I'll mention it to her, she may be interested. I do love all the swapping goodies and am blessed that you sent to me! If you're looking for any new groups to join on swap-bot I run a couple and I also have a snail mail group on Facebook and I'm always looking for good swappers on there as well. Merry Christmas to you and your family and God Bless! P.S. I shared the info with my husband about the 4th grade girl you mentored to, and we will add her in our prayers.

Comment: Thanks for all the notes. I have to tell you honestly I never started reading the Longmire books until after I started watching the series. Maybe try The Cold Dish and see what you think. I really enjoyed them all and really the character of Vic was the only one with any differences but I got used to it.
