pattiairel

Update: Thank you to all my swap-bot friends who reached out to me for Mark's death. Each card and note helped me get through this time. I love you all.

Still struggling but a little better. I'm packing daily to be ready when the house closing comes around. I hope to move in October. Please be patient with me. I'll be bacl as soon as possible.

I am taking a small break from swapping only to pack my home and move closer to my family. My purchase offer has been accepted so now to pack my home. Plz be patient if I need to rate. I’ll keep looking through messages to answer questions. Thank you so much. Can’t wait to come back!!

Update: I had to get ready to make a big change that Mark and I always talked about. Moving closer to my kids and 7 + grandkids. So I found a hose and just heard I have been accepted. I am excited and sad all at once!! But they are one hour away and that sure adds miles on a car. !!! So I wil be moving and will continue to swap, I sure need this activity in y life!!♥♥♥

Marks funeral was yesterday. Very tiring and complicated!! Plz give me time to rate. I'm trying hard. Just so much to do......very upsetting life right now. 20 years on Sept 16th this year. We almost made it.

Update: yesterday my husband passed away. He fought a long 15 yr battle with ALS. He was amazing and loved beyond words. I need time away. I’ll finish swaps that are ready and then take some time off. I had deleted swaps I was doing that we’re not ready yet. I’m sorry.

Things are better now after Alexandria's death and my auto accident. I hope to keep Mark and I as healthy as possible through this virus crisis. Be safe everyone!!.

Please be patient with me. March 4, 2019 I lost my granddaughter. Alexandria Nicole was 22 and the light of my life. She will be missed so much. I am struggling to get through life right now. I will never understand why she took her own life when she had so much to live for.

I am NOT offended by receiving CHRISTIAN religious items. I like to send little CHRISTIAN pass it cards with my swaps, to encourage the receiver. I find the CHRISTIAN swaps are such a blessing, because you don't have to worry about offending anyone.It's truly a blessing. Sometimes you just need to receive something that reminds you that God is in control and I don't have to worry. I always need to be reminded of that!♥♥ I know each is entitled to their own opinion, and I respect that. It just amazes me to read a profile and see how many people do not want any religious items. Oh well..... I am not one of those people. I love the LORD and am not offended by receiving CHRISTIAN religious items.
