UPDATE Sept 25 2016 I am not inactive =) Just out of town for the moment, had to slow down to start homeschooling and then we packed up to come out to the Northwest coast again to visit family. I will pick back up again once I get back home. Love to you all.

UPDATE June 15 2016 I am now back in town. I want to to say thank you to those of you who have shown me patience and kindness and continue to do so as I catch up with your swaps. i am feeling alot better , the migraines and fibro pain are gone and I was able to enjoy seeing my son and although it rained most of the time at the coast , it was lovely....

I am now catching up with getting my life in order, I promise that I will get everyone rated and all swaps in , if anyone is concerned about a swap being lost or late, please message me, I am now checking my messages daily. I love all of you so much, SWAP-BOT is very important to me, it gives me something to look forward to , so that life is not just about work and challenges.

Thank you for all the love =)

Update June 3,2016, I will be out of town (visiting my son in Oregon) from 6/4 thru 6/14) I will be able to use my computer but only in a limited way. I will continue to work on any swaps still due, and will rate your swaps when I return. If you have any questions or concerns about a swap , you can message me , but please be patient, it may take me a day or two to reply back. Thank you for your patience. I love all of you **

Hello, My name is Angela Chavez

I always aim to send out mail as soon as coordinator's have address info up. So far I have done this. I LOVE SWAP-BOT and take it very seriously!!!

This means that I am not or ever will be a flaker. I will let you know if an emerge?ncy comes up or I am seriously ill if it will prevent me from sending something on time, however if you read my first paragraph you will understand why I send mail out early.

However.... Life Happens.... so...

Please, contact me if you have a problem with receiving my order before you rate me low. I will do my best to help, I honestly want to know and will do my best to remedy the problem or if that fails will replace the mail.

I expect that you would want the same courtesy from me (which I will give you)

. I am 48 years old and happily married to the man of my dreams. I have four amazing boys , but only two still live at home. They are my 16 year old twins who have autism with developmental delays and I am currently homeschooling them.

I also enjoy playing with my dogs, we have an 18 month old male pitbull who is adorable and lovable. We also have a female toy size Australian Shepherd who is 6 years old and is beautiful. soft as down and very sassy

I love music of all kinds except country music, Heavy metal, Goth and punk

I love to read I like to read everything I can get my hands on. My favorite is historical fiction.

I love nonfiction on just about every topic. My current favorites include: Spirituality Health and Fitness Healthy Eating Cookbooks Jewelry Making Crochet books

I have enjoyed working with so many crafts over the years including making both soap and candles using traditional techniques. I honestly have tried just about everything out there. I am a craft junkie and naturally artistic (not talented or skilled)

In more recent years I have been working with sculpey clay .beadwork, painting on canvas,decoupage (modge podge) and crocheting.

Recently, I have become really exciting working with papercrafts and finding Swap-Bot is like finding a home away from home.

I love flowers of all kinds and also birds, especially song birds of all types.

also: colorful buttons in different sizes and shapes fabric flowers beads stickers (not kid stickers but scrapbook kind) blank note cards

Ocean themes, Nature

Birds, especially song birds and owls but I adore all birds

Cats of all kinds but especially the common and very sweet house cat and all animals (except creepy, crawly things)

Flowers all types, favorites include: roses, tiger lillies, hollyhocks, lilacs, wisteria, oh boy, simply way too many to list...It is is pretty, you can bet on me loving it.

Mermaids, sea turtles, dolphins, starfish , ocean , love the beach!

angels

postcards (prefer nature, animals,cats, birds but will accept any ( dislike marketing and state postcards)

Favorite Color:: I love all colors

but these are my favorites:

Blues.....especially aquas Greens Purples, especially lavenders Pink, especially rose/raspberry Orange....mainly tangerine

washi tape: all colors, designs and widths inkpads unused postage stamps die cut birds rubber stamps of birds note cards with pretty birds illustrated on them

I love all things beautiful, but really dig birds

pretty postcards; My favorite are vintage but love just about any (that are pretty , cute, sweet or funny) related to ; cats, birds, flowers, mermaids, the ocean, mountain views, sea turtles.

Food: I have Celiac Disease , so I am allergic to wheat and all products that contain it , so no cookies or biscuits for me. No Gluten at all. Thank you, if you send it not knowing , I will not give you a low rating, My family will eat it , no worries =)

Tea, sorry but I don't much care for it. I will drink chai , lemon tea and apple cinnamon tea if you really want to send me tea , but dislike all others.

Kawaii, Hello Kitty,
Just not my thing, but if you do send them, I won't rate you low (I am just not like that...so don't worry) I can always send them to other swappers who love them.

Tim Holtz birds: Hey they are cute, but just not the birds I am into. Too cartoony for me. Bottom LIne: I Love Swap-Bot Mail!!
