Please note that Australia Post is now charging more for postage yet delivering things in a slower time frame. Please be patient with myself and any other Aussies you swap with as our postal service is pathetic. I posted a letter to someone in the next town from mine and it took a week to get there. previously it only took overnight. So if the date comes and you still don't have my swap and I have said I have posted it please believe me that I have because it is just our postal service. It is very frustrating for us all.
I am back!!! 16 may 2016. so much as been going on in life but I am back now. I have missed the fun. I am married with two grown children. I am a christian and belong to the local Baptist Church. I work in a library and spend a lot of my time programming for children's activities to promote literacy development in children of all ages. I love little things and pretty things and i guess I am a kid that never grew up.
i like easy to listen to music, no one particular singer or group. i enjoy instrumental but not choral collections. i do enjoy christian music. regardless of what kind it is i dont like heavy rock or anything with swearing and blasphemy
i love historical and romance and family saga style books. i enjoy the odd biography and i couldnt live without my bible. :) i like mysteries but the suspense and horror give me nightmares so i cant read them!
my all time favourite movie is one that is as old as the hills. it goes back to my childhood with hayley mills in it. it was called "the trouble with angels." more recent movies would have to be 50 first dates, the notebook, message in a bottle and those style of chick flick movies. i dislike anything that is pornographic or supernatural.
i love watching MASH reruns, also enjoy shows like Frasier, not a big fan of reality TV shows other than Masterchef australia. I loved watching Gilmore Girls. i dont watch a lot of TV but so long as it fits my moral standards i will give it a go. i like cooking shows and documentaries as well.
i enjoy most crafts - knitting, reading, card making, scrapbooking, cooking, letter writing, writing poetry and short essays.
i dislike anything that is solid red ( touches of red are ok), perfumed things as my family is allergic, witchcraft or mystic, eastern religion or new age stuff.
i love the colour purple, animals but especially butterflies and puppy dogs, food, chocolate, love my family and friends and being creative. i love to share my faith with those who are interested. i love pretty paper and pens and just about anything connected with writing or my crafty addictions. i collect novelty erasers because when I was a kid they didnt have such a variety around.
MY NUMBER THREE RATINGS as you can see i have three number three ratings. the first i feel was uncalled for.in my defence let me say that the partner i had didnt read all my story. it was a three page story swap. i sent three pages but my partner didnt turn over page one to see page two on the back!!! simple misunderstanding and we sent messages back and forth about it but she didnt change the rating. my story met the swap requirements and if you read down my feedback list you will see the comments made. My second number three rating is because i left swapbot at time I had total chaos in my life, comptuer troubles and everything else that could go wrong went wrong. My original swap never arrived for my partner. she had I had many swaps of the time. She also left swapbot for a while. this year we both came back and I made good the swap I owed her as you can read on my rating responses. anwyay, i am good for a swap. My third mumber three was due to the fact that i sent my swap off late, it was during a time when i had no access to the internet and wasnt well. sometimes i may be late but i always PM and tell my partner what is going on. do not be afraid to swap with me, i am a good swapper and i enjoy making friends here on swap bot.

Hi, I am just stopping by to say thank you for sending back my 75 Questions Swap. I really enjoyed reading your answers to my questions! Have a great day! Indigorose
Hi Debbie. Bright blessings! Thanks so much for the profile comment. Don't worry about the scary movie thing lol. I think I was raised unlike most kids. My daddy was a huge horror movie buff. We use to take a fold out mattress on the weekends and put it in the livingroom floor. Then stay up all night watching scary movies. My dad,my brother and I. I sometimes would be soooo scared so I would do the hand over the face, but peeking thru thing haha. Bc even though I was scared I didn't want my dad to make me stop watching them bc I loved that time we shared. So I stuck it. Now as an adult I'm raising my kids in the same fashion. But my little girl has nightmares also she may not grow up to be just like her mom, but that's ok too. :)
Happy Swapping, Shanell
Hiya from London - I'm here from the Comment on Your Profile swap. The thing that most stands out for me is that I've never heard of your favourite movie, which as a film nerd, automatically makes me want to see it! I totally agree about scary books too - shudder. I hope this finds you well, and good luck on the chocolate kick!
Hello, How nice I have to write you a comment for the swap. I read your profile and how wonderful it must be working in a library! I love reading, it does not matter what kind of book as long it is not horror. Working allday between the books and giving people advice about books must be a very nice job! Is there already a winner in the kick about the chocolate? I think you are very brave!!! I would lose immediately because I love eating it so much! I wish you a very good day!
