About Me

2 May 024 -- I am feeling sad and a little lonely. Last week I had to put my fur baby, Indy, to sleep.She had been ill on and off for several weeks. After all the tests, she had cancer. I put her to sleep and I miss her something terrible.

18 August 2023 -- I am feeling somewhat better and want to start swap again, but slowly. I miss receiving Happy Mail.

31 January 2023 -- I have been ill for the last few months and will no longer be participating in swaps until I am feeling better. If you have not received a swap from me, please contact me so we can fix the problem. I want to thank all of the friends I have made here on swap Swap Bot. I will miss you all.

3 August 2022 -- If you have not received a swap from me, please let me KNOW before you rate me. I want to opportunity to resend it. Also I live in Arizona where we use MST, so if you live anywhere else where you are not on MST, please give me til the next day to respond. Thank you for listening and understanding.

2 December 2021 -- things here have finally settled down (at least I hope so). I would like to start swapping again. This time I want to do it slowing so as it is not over whelming. We have moved again ...out of the care facility and into a modular home in an over 55 community. My husband seems to be doing a little better here, although he uses a wheelchair must of the time. My husband has Parkinson's Disease. I am feeling better being here. Feeling calmer and more organized than I was the rest of the year. Thank you to all who have been understanding.

15 April 2021 -- I will be taking a break from swapping; due to some ongoing issues at home. Anyone that I owe a swap with, shall receive it.

6 January 2021 -- I live in the independent portion on a senior campus. There are 900 residents and 1200 employees. On December 22, we were told we again have Corvid-19 on campus. Then on December 28, the campus went into full shutdown: no visitors in; residents can only go out to medical appointments. Mail is going out and is coming in but not in a timely fashion. So if I have not rated you since the 22rd, or you haven't received a swap from me please try to understand my situation. Thank you.

If you have not received a swap from me, PLEASE contact me before rating me. I will be more than happy to follow up and replace it. Thanks.

10/20/2020 -- Since I don't know which Rolodex I will be using, please don't punch holes in the one you send me. I will punch the holes when I decided which Rolodex I am going to use. Thanks.

I have been married to a wonderful man for 24 years.

After 40 years, I retired from nursing. We adopted a 2 year old female Shih Tzu named Independence. Indy is blind; she lost her vision about 2 weeks before adopted her from a rescue.
I love the beach and water.

MY LIKES: COLORS--1) all shades of blues, aqua, teal 2) combination of yellow, gray, black 3) then most color combos FOOD--- cheese pizza with or without french
fries;watermelon; "Blooming Onion"
from Outback; green salads; cement mixer from Culver's, dark chocolate. MUSIC --- 60's, 70's, 80's, Disco, and some country (Alan Jackson, Toby Keith, Reba, Kenny Rogers, Don Williams, Randy Travis). I like to dance. READING --- I preferences in authors changes from time to time

DISLIKES --- spiders & snakes; the dentist; liver & onions; heights; talking about religion or politics.

ME ......CRAFTY--- scrapbooking, decorating my calendars (aka planners), tole painting, card making, mixed media, ATC. I guess I'm what you call a "gypsy" crafter...I don't have a speciality because I like to do different crafts at different times.

I no longer have a wish list. I have so many supplies, they will last the rest of my lifetime and beyond. Please just drop me a little note (like a mini pen pal note) telling me about yourself, what you're doing, what you like, etc. I

Comment: Thanks for your creativity on these TWO ATCs! Both are very well suited for me! Dem Bones is great, I had a giggle and appreciate the Halloween theme, and the flower and butterfly card is beautiful. I love how it's raised right up off the card. Nice swap. Take care!
Response: You are very welcome. Glad you liked them.

Comment: Update- received sept 18 (mailed sept 2). Thanks! Not recieved in 4 weeks, although i have recieved other atcs mailed much later. Got message saying there may not be enough postage on it. Kind of the senders responsibility to ensure sufficient postage. Happy to revisit if it arrives.
Response: 9/26/24 - I am glad that you received and liked the resend. 9/18/24 - Glad that you received the 2 ATCs I sent. I also made you a new ATC and mailed it yesterday. It has an International stamp on it, sho it should get to you without a problem.9/13/24 - I have never converted US postage for International postage, that's why I didn't know if it was enough. I won't use US stamps again when sending Internationally. I will resend.

Comment: UPDATE 9/13/24: I received the resend swap today and have adjusted my rating - thank you! Communicating with your partner is essential when things happen like lost mail. This is the only way your partner knows what is happening and that you are trying to work things out. ***I really hate to rate someone down and I have swapped with Donnamarie before and she does beautiful work, but I did contact her regarding not receiving anything and she said she would resend in a couple of days and contact me, but I haven’t heard anything back from her. I have noticed she is also behind in a few swaps that are past the deadline and is still signing up for more swaps. I will gladly change this rating once I have received the swap.
Response: Update 9/13/24 : I am very glad that you received the resend. thank you for changing your reating.I have mailed this to you on Saturday. You been receiving it by tomorrow.
