Well....covid has hit our house for the second time this year! Everyone is fine so far (and praying it stays that way) but it sure makes things difficult when I am quarantined to a single room!...without my craft stuff! Prayers for everyone dealing with.....well....anything this year!
I am a 43 year old mother of 3 (4 if you include my fur baby; a 68 pound Boxador named Luna), I am also a wife and now a new grandmother to a beautiful baby boy!
It has been a crazy year couple years full of new beginnings (becoming a grandma for one), and some medical issues with both of my daughters but we have made it through!
A little about me- I have been scrapbooking and paper crafting since I was little and I am so glad the hobby caught on!!!
I also dabble in other crafting occasionally but limit myself to paper crafts because hubby thinks I am taking over too much of the house! LOL
I am REALLY into Geocaching and it has become my big addiction! If you have not tried it, I HIGHLY recommend! So much fun! Check it out at www.geocaching.com
I work in the male dominated field of the gas and oil industry so I love to go all out with my feminine side in my free time with dressing up, doing amateur photo shoots, crafting and decorating my house!
I like to garden (zone 5b/6a) but skipped it this year due to my daughter’s surgeries....and I love to make cards for all seasons and events! My favorite being Fall and Halloween but Christmas is a close second! I am known in my family for my handmade Christmas cards each year.
I use a Happy Planner Girl classic size, super mom planner and I enjoy decorating it and making it my own!
I have a horrible sweet tooth and enjoy candy and muffins and anything lemon or pumpkin flavored!
I know that I do not like Country or Polka! I have recently been into Halsey.

Don't stress out about what you send me! I appreciate every thought and effort of a well put together package and will never be too picky or rate badly if there is something I can not use or do not like (just as long as it meets swap requirements). I will either give it to my family to enjoy or pass it along to someone else!
I am always interested in doing private swaps, so please PM me if you would like to do one!
PLEASE REMEMBER TO RATE WHEN YOU RECEIVE MY PACKAGE, BUT ALWAYS CONTACT ME FIRST IF THERE IS A PROBLEM! I AIM TO PLEASE AND TRY TO FULFILL THE SWAP REQUIREMENTS AS BEST AS I CAN! I WILL RE-SEND IF NECESSARY!
I strive to rate the same day I receive a package/letter!
Please note that I drop packages and letters at the post office on a regular basis and mark them sent. I live in a small town with one small post office. Since they have limited hours, mail might not get sent out the same day I drop it off. Packages have been known to sit in the office for 2 or 3 days before being sent out (ie. if I leave it there on a Thursday in the late afternoon, it gets processed Friday, will sit all weekend and get sent out either Monday or Tuesday).
