If anyone does not rec. my swaps PLEASE pm me because I always do what I say I am going to do and have been that way long before SB so something must have went wrong.

I have 3 sons, 3 daughters, and 11 grandchildren.

Please know that I re-use bubble envelopes, because I hate filling up the land fills with plastic and can't see throwing them out until they are no good any more. I make sure that other's addresses are removed or destroyed before reusing them.

I love getting up early and listening to the birds sing, and getting a jump start on daily chores. Fall is my favorite time of year. I love the cooler weather, the turning of leaves, getting ready to huddle in for a cozy winter and the holidays that it brings. Riding a bike or taking a walk at the crack of dawn on a Fall day and returning home to the aroma of fresh brewed coffee is one of my life's pleasures. The smell of sheets after they have dried outside, and hearing the ocean waves break and the buoy sounding off on summer evenings brings me joy. I really appreciate the little things in life. I appreciate another who has a good sense of humor.
