Country: Canada

Who the Heck am I?

I'm a 45 year old woman, living in BC, Canada. I was working as a child care provider for over 20 years, but became disabled due, in part, to fibromyalgia, and a broken tailbone. I am also Autistic and ADHD, so that's fun, lol.

I live with my partner (Chris), and our 2 kitties. I have step sons who do not live with us. I have lived here most of my life, which is weird for me to say, haha. I have, in 45 years, moved a total of 37 times, but I've lived at this address for the majority of my time here.

What else can I tell you? Oh, between us, we have a combined total of 25 nibblings! Only a few live nearby, most are spread over the lower portion of BC, and some are in other parts of Canada.

I used to work as a child care provider for special needs teens. Basically I helped them learn to cook, clean, organize/prioritize their wants vs needs, and made sure they didn't burn the house down, haha. Then I fell down the stairs and broke my tailbone. Since then I've lived with a pain in my arse, butt pillows, and a heating pad XP

Crafty Obsessions

Crochet

Loom Knitting

Amigurumi

Painting (Watercolour and Acrylic)

Diamond Painting

Resin

Polymer Clay

Card Making

Art (digital and traditional)

Cooking and baking

Collections

Yarn

Tiny Stuffed animals

Stickers (the vinyl ones are my favourite)

Stamps and Dies

Resin molds

Cutters to use with clay

Please Do Not Send

Religion (Occult-ish is ok)

Politics

Little Kid Themes

Scented anything (perfumes, scented paper, etc)

Beauty/Cosmetic Items (allergies, they won't be used)

Velvet or similar textures, I hate them

Kitties

Lily is a 5.5 year old torbie (tortishell tabby). She arrived in my hands at the age of 4 weeks, and she's been my lil love ever since.

Luci is a 9 month old Ragdoll/Snowshoe/Siamese mix. Luci is short for Lucifur, and he *definitely* lives up to his name! LOL!

Our cats love treats, so if you ever feel so inclined to send them a treat, they would greatly appreciate it. They will even send you a signed thank you card!

Food and Drinks

I currently prefer to drink mainly watered down fruit juice with frozen fruit in it, and regular orange pekoe tea (I love brown sugar and milk in mine). I was sick for a little while (gotta love winter colds!), and tea kept me alive and not hurting, lol. Maybe I'm just old enough to enjoy tea again, lol!

I do drink those single serving powdered drinks, like Crystal Light, Instant Coffees, etc. Not as often, but I do have a huge stockpile here. I'd be happy to send some along, if you are curious!

For treats, I am fond of candy. I prefer softer things, like cherry nibs or sour apple rings. I also love hard candy, licorice (black, to be clear, lol), mints, sugar free gum, etc. I share with Chris, so everything will be enjoyed :)

Wishlist

I honestly do not have anything specific that I am in need of. TBH, I have such a large stash that I am purging it, as I cannot use it all.

However, I love stickers, particularly vinyl. I am not looking for anything specific, but if it's funky or you like it, I'd be happy to receive it!

I actually am looking for some napkins! I don't need many, I just like to try new ones (turned into cards, or for other crafts), and would love some that are very different!

Random Favourites

Colours: Purple, Blue and Green (various shades and tones).

Snacks: I love sweets, mostly chewy candy or hard candy, sugar free gum, seeds, nuts, dehydrated fruit, dark chocolate.

Drinks: hot chocolate, tea, coffee, and sugar free packets.

Craft Bits: Crochet patterns, for beginners and easier patterns, especially amigurumi. Stickers, napkins, and small bits for collage are awesome. Old diamond painting drills or rhinestones are wonderful too :D

Passtimes: Gaming (video games, like DDV, Dinkum, Hunter COTW, Aloft, Enshrouded, etc), Art like Crocheting, colouring, painting, etc, road trips!, thrift shopping, coffee dates with my people, letter writing, card and board games, DnD, dates with my partner

Response: Wonderful! It's a great story, I really loved how different it was from his more known works. But it is still Stephen King, and he rocks XD

Comment: Thanks for your list and ratings! I really like Stephen King too, but I prefer his short stories, because I feel like sometimes there are scenes that are a bit rambly in his long-form books. I recently read You like it darker, you should give that a try if you haven't yet!
Response: Thank you!! I'll have to wishlist that and get it asap 😁 And I totally agree, sometimes things are a bit long winded XD
