About Me

Hello, my name is Wendy and I currently live in Lincoln, Nebraska, USA (14 yrs combined). I have also lived in Upstate - New York (6 yrs as a child), San Francisco Bay Area - California (almost 30 yrs - and I truly did leave my heart in San Francisco), Springfield Ohio area (9 yrs) and Abilene - Kansas (2.5 yrs). If I were to rank them; #1 - California, #2 - Ohio, #3 Probably New York, #4 Nebraska, #5 Kansas. If you ever want to know why just ask me...lol

I love my husband Jesse and my family * I always have a smile to share * I am a fun loving, outgoing, happy person * I am open minded * I have an eclectic style * I love bright colors * I absolutely LOVE flowers * I love to play board and dice games * I do tend to get frustrated in my crafting and sewing as I'm a perfectionist * I tend to procrastinate at times but I always get it done * Sometimes I can be an overachiever * I am born under the sign of Cancer *

I have (1) husband; Jesse and our anniversary is June, 24th, we have been married for 7 years now. I have (2) grown daughters, Holly and Kimberlie, (1) bonus-granddaughter; McKenzie, (3) grand-daughters; Jillian is 11, Alana is 8 and Eagan is newborn and (1) grandson: Gauge that is 7.

We love to cruise and have been to: Bahamas, Mexico, Azore Islands outside of Portugal and The Netherlands. I have also visited 40 US states and various cities. I loved to go on local food tours of new cities that I visited (when they were affordable). They are very informational and filled with great food: I have done, Chicago, San Diego, Kansas City and Atlanta so far.

SWAP INFORMATION: Please rate when you receive * I try to rate all swaps within a day of receiving them but I occasionally get behind. Please ask me if you have any concerns. * Please be kind and extend me the same courtesy and rate at your earliest convenience. * I'm not the kind to beg for acknowledgement but it would certainly be nice to know that you received your card or item. * I will never flake * I know it isn't required but please ask questions prior to a low rating. * I will do anything I can to rectify any issues there may be. Even one (3) rating can limit us from many other swaps. I always mark as sent on the day it is put in the mail. If I do this after work it may show the next day and I apologize for that but I do mail on time.

Favorite Music

MUSIC I LIKE * Big Band * Old Musicals * Instrumental * 70's Motown * Disco * 80's Classic Rock 🎸 * 90's Boy bands * Old and New Country * Christmas any time of the year * Contemporary Christian * Relaxing Jazz * Bossa Nova * Sexy R & B

A Few of My Favorite Things

GENERAL INTERESTS * Travel * Cruising * Beaches * Flowers * Dogs (especially Dachshunds and Westies) and Cats (especially Maine Coon cats) * Almost all birds * Flamingos (If I could be anything - I would be a Flamingo) * Giraffes * Llama's and Alpaca's * Architecture * Waterfalls * Unique Hotels / B&B's * Antiques and Depression Glass (I have a collection of vintage blue glass) * I love Chihuly glass * Craft Fairs * Festivals * Broadway live * Party planning * All things Wedding * Holidays and Traditions * Vision Boards * Inspiration * Victorian * I am very interested in learning more US History * I LOVE Pinterest * I have a complicated relationship with Religion.

FOOD * I am not a picky eater and I love most all food (One reason I love crusing is to try so many new dishes). I love: * Making Gingerbread Houses * Desserts * Cooking Thanksgiving Dinner * Hot Chocolate with cream and marshmallows * Candy Making * Simple Meals * Dip Mixes * CAKE * I DO NOT DRINK COFFEE

SEWING * I am a skilled seamstress * I want to learn how to do fabric manipulation * I am interested in learning ribbon embroidery * I DO NOT cross stitch

ARTS & CRAFTS * Almost any craft - I haven't found many I would say I don't like * I have started working with Alcohol Ink * I am dabbling with Doodling and trying to learn hand-lettering and basic art doodles on my journey to Bullet Journaling * Vintage cards and paper * Yard Art * I would love to learn how to crochet * Multi-media Art * I love visiting local artisans when I go places - people's talents cease to amaze me

WISH LIST * Anything associated with my listed interests * Postcards - I love homemade cards; if you do too - please send them. I like pretty much anything but not vulgur, gross or offensive. If you send me something I don't like I will give you a good rating and just pass it along. Travel cards and things from your local area are always good but I honestly I like it all. * Decorative Ribbons * Stationary * Decorative Paper * Dip Mixes * Inspirational things * Vintage items * Anything homemade * Vintage greeting cards * Fabric swatches or fat quarters * unique fabrics from other countries or areas

Please ** NO Patchouli or musk scented items; I am very turned off by these * No facial makeup - My skin is very sensitive and I have allergies to many * No nail polish

Favorite Movies

MOVIES AND TV * I am a big fan of "Romcom" movies which translates to romantic comedies * True Crime * Old movies * Hallmark movies * Disney * Fun and Happy * Christmas * Documentaries * I do not like most horror movies * We watch quite a few series on Netflix from most genre's.

Favorite Books

BOOKS I LIKE I don't have any favorite authors per se' because I don't normally read whole books. Don't get me wrong I read all the time, but I read articles online and I read excerpts of books because I have good intentions but I fall asleep and never seem to make it through them. :-) My favorite types of books would be Self Help, Entrepreneurial, Motivational and Travel.

Hello Wendy!

Your name really takes me back a long time! I remember when I was in 4th grade and I had my first english lesson in school, our teacher would give us all a little note with an english name we could refer to one another in class, so we would feel more english (or something like that, I don't recall what the purpose of this was exactly haha) and the note the teacher handed to me said "Wendy". So my name in english class was Wendy for one whole year. xD I don't remember much more, but that I won't forget, I remember I felt so proud I got such a pretty name haha :D

Anywho, I hope you have a wonderful advent time and a blessed christmas :D All the best from Germany! ♥

Vanessa for the quick friendly profile comment :D

Hi Wendy!

I'm a procrastinator, too! Though I try very hard not to be.

Anyway, just wanted to say your profile is lovely! Hope you have a wonderful day ^_^

x Jess
