About Me

September 2024: Found out people I have been swapping with for many years were calling me ignorant because of my religious beliefs and my preference not to have Witches/Pagans/Occultists and Satanists join my swaps, which has always been in my profile, in the most loving way possible I could phrase it at that time as I was growing in my own maturity, and religion, but apparently not everyone can give the same respect to a Christian as they can to a Pagan. I don't feel safe here anymore. I will probably stop swapping or create a group of the only people I will swap with. The fact that someone thought I was being "incendiary" about it, is completely devastating. I am not, nor have I ever been a cruel, malicious, or intenrionally hurtful person and it absolutely crushed me to see those things said about me when any of you could have come to me instead of gossiping in the forums to ask why my stance, is what it is. I'm absolutely heartbroken and was already in the middle of a depression. Next time, be adults and open to having a conversation instead of crushing someone you don't know whose already struggling and whose shoes you've never walked in. I have been dealing with one of my closest friends being eyeball deep into Witchcraft and I've seen what it's done to her. I still talk to her every week. I'm in the midst of that and that is why I couldn't handle any more of it. It's in my face 24/7 and I simply don't want anything that could be touched by magic, as I do believe it is very powerful and real, to be in my home and thought people could just respect and understand that without me having to go into my entire life's story about how I've been touched by it in horrific ways in my own home more than a few times.

If you don't receive something from me, or the dates stamped are not what I have told you, please PM me before rating, I will resend! I'm in a new RV park and now I'm not sure what time they pick up the mail as I don't live near the USPS pickup point. It is in the swap etiquette that you contact your partner and the host before rating a 1. If you ever don't receive a swap from me in a timely manner and I haven't messaged you, let me know and I will resend immediately!!!!

💌 2024 biggest needs: Forever stamps, postcards and washi tape! 🌏

🥳 I'm 36, living in my RV that my parents and I converted into a tiny house! I've been in it since June of '21.💫

🙏 Christian (not judgemental, so please give me the same courtesy 💕). I don't care what religion you are, I don't care if you're part of the LGBTQ+ community, I don't care if our political beliefs are vastly different! I have friends of all kinds and love them equally. Even if you don't believe it, I believe you're chosen, loved, and precious. I do not care if you are Buddhist, Hindu, Atheist, Agnostic, Muslim, Jewish, etc etc etc. However, I do not swap with people who hold Pagan/Witchcraft/Occult/Satanist ideals in any regard within my own swaps that I personally host, ONLY because I do not want it in my home just as some of you don't want religious items in yours. I would think adults could accept that and move on, but apparently they have to whine about it in the forums.

🦮😻 Animal lover, former LVT, equestrian and animal rehabber 🦝

Currently have 2 cats, Cinna who is my heart and Maverick, my eyeless kitten whose the cutest thing EVER! My service dog, Ruger, who is my lifeline and constant companion. 🦮 Any cat toys that make sounds are excellent stocking stuffers to send me since Maverick is blind! Ruger is allergic to everything, so no treats. Cinna loves any crunchy treats. 🤗

Wishlist

Unused postage stamps are my #1 needed item. It's so helpful when I get them! I'm on disability and have a budget down to the penny and I swap thanks to everyone that sends stamps with their swaps. ❤️❤️❤️

I would LOVE ANY uncirculated Queen Elizabeth stamps or ones that haven't been marked too much!!! I'm making jewelry from them! Same with circulated coins!

Anything service dog related! Patches from Etsy that are seasonal are ALWAYS fun and super welcome. We LOVE doggie bandanas as we have an Instagram and need to start doing photoshoots! If you'd like to order something for Ruger, give me a price range and I'll let you know what we currently need!

Anything Top Gun, Paddington, The Muppets, Doctor Who, Brambly Hedge, Christmas related!

Autum, Winter, and Christmas themed washi!

Anything Alice in Wonderland themed! Especially John Tenniel illustrated!

Postcards/stickers/ephemera with campers or tiny houses on them!

Alphonse Mucha style art.

Ireland & Scotland related items!! 🇮🇪🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

RV related stuff.

Dislikes

NO THANK YOU to all the following: Horror/demonic/satanism/witchcraft/new age/ pagan/cult/skulls/death imagery/macabre/crime/crystals/Harry Potter especially (I still struggle with this), LOTR stuff, reiki, anything of the sort.

Anything anti-religious.

Any circuses that use exotic animals. I hate the forcing of endangered animals to perform. Horses and dogs are fine.

Adult cartoons like Archer, Rick and Morty, South Park, etc. I do like The Simpsons from time to time though.

Not an anime fan, fine with Kawaii though.

PLEASE DO NOT SEND-Allergies

If you are a smoker, PLEASE, PLEASE let me know before you send a swap, if you want to just take a photo of it, I will rate a 5! I'm HIGHLY allergic to cigarette smoke (can send me to the ER or leave me bed bound for days).

Highly alllergic to any sugar other than stevia and sucralose. Carbs are a huge no no for me too. 😞 I'm on a very strict carnivore diet due to my POTS, autoimmune diseases, and other health problems and it works wonders for me personally. With that said, if you live in the UK and send a bag of Thornton's Toffee for a swap, I will make myself sick, for that and ONLY that. 🤣

I'm also not allowed to have caffeine, but can have it in small amounts like tea, black teas are fine as well, I just don't drink them on flare days! 🫖🍵

It's 1°C over here right now - after a week of -4°C. And starting Friday it will not rise above 0°C for the near future. I never realized that Christmas time =/ snow around the world when my friend went to Australia for a year when I was 14 and she told me about freezing candles to at least put one on. December equals cold and snowy in my brain ^^
