I'm married and have 2 cats. I'm a teacher librarian. I love to travel.
Please! If you don't receive a swap from me, let me know and I will be happy to re-send. I have found that the USPS is unreliable. They lose mail often, and they even returned to me the entire top inch of an envelope I sent, the rest of which was just lost due to their machine tearing it up.
If you receive something from me with postage due, please tell me and I will reimburse you for it.
Please rate me--I want to know that you received my swap because I DO NOT flake!
I don't expect to receive extras in my swaps--I rate and give hearts based on the swap itself.
While I like anything that a person is nice enough to send me, I don't particularly care for cartoon-themed items or country/western items.
And please, no friendship books/sheets, decos, etc.--I don't swap those.
My favorite color is red, but I like all colors.
Following are some particular likes:
notecards, handmade or store-bought
stationery, handmade or store-bought
washi tape--any design, any size
ribbon, lace, fibers--any length
I'm not an artist by any means, but I love to make greeting cards and other paper crafts like bookmarks. Pinterest has provided me with much inspiration! Swap-bot introduced me to ATCs, inchies/twinchies, handmade postcards, flip books, and pocket letters.
I also love to cross-stitch--I guess because I can't draw pretty pictures, I get some satisfaction out of stitching them.
I love sending and receiving mail, so I have several penapls.
Currently Reading: Serpent & Dove by Shelby Mahurin Currently Listening: Pachinko by Min Jin Lee
I love reading. Stephen King is a long-time favorite author, but I like most genres of fiction. Romance and westerns are my least favorite. I don't care for most nonfiction, especially self-help and professional. I'm in a book club that meets once a month.
Latest movie watched: Salem's Lot
Currently streaming: Yellowjackets
I watch A LOT of TV! Too much, probably, but I enjoy it. I used to go to the cinema several times a month--there's just something I love about the dark theater, the loud audio, the big screen, oh, and the popcorn! Now I just stream movies and shows.
I used to be more interested in music than I am now, but I do like listening to it in the car and when I clean house or read. Some of my favorite artists are Alanis Morissette, Muse, Of Monsters and Men, and Mumford and Sons. I don't care for country music or rap.

Oh, that was that a picture you took from your garden? Spring is so nice, I was just looking at the flowers blooming outside (: They have a whole variety of pansies planted around here.

Haiku For You swap
Hello, Anita! This is my very first haiku, hope you like it.
Haiku name: Dew Drops
Beads of water race
To the tip of leaves and stop
For a while, then drop.
I love your job title! Combines two of the professions I admire. Have a nice day.
