UPDATE 5/26/2022: Hello! I just wanted to reach out and let you know I’m taking a break over the summer. Life is so hectic I don’t have time to swap right now. My son is graduating, all 3 sons are playing baseball, one of which travels out of town every weekend. And then I just found out yesterday that my grandma passed so we will have to go out of town next week for the funeral. So needless to say, a lot is going on. I will be back the end of august beginning of September. Have a great summer!

I’m 45. Married 23 years to my high school sweetheart. I have 3 teen boys. I’m a baseball Mom. I’m a respiratory therapist for 22 years now. Fall and Halloween are my faves! I’m a big pumpkin spice fan!!!! Fave colors: purple and gold. I love post crossing and paper crafting. I’m also an avid pen paler and planner. I have a classic Happy Planner and love it! I’ve had paper crafting and pen paling as hobbies since 2018. They are my outlets away from work, kids and even the hubby!

I was born and raised and still live in Bellevue Nebraska. Some day I will move.

I was raised Catholic. My grandma was the one who I always went to church with. Once she passed I quit going. I feel I don’t need to attend church to believe. And I do believe. Bible Study swaps are one of my fave swaps here on Swap-bot.

80s and 90s are my faves. I also love country. Blake Shelton and Rascal Flatts are my faves. I also have a special place for 90s hair bands and from the 60s The Monkees. My fave song is from the 70s Wildfire.

I love to read. James Patterson abs Janet Evanovich are my faves. I was big into Sweet Valley, Nancy Drew, Boxcar Children when I was a young girl. I wish I still had all those books. I’m open to new suggestions. Not a big fan of zombies or werewolves or vampires. I also enjoy the Harry Potter books.

Tom Hanks. That’s all I need to say. He’s my celebrity crush. Yes he’s my dads age but he’s amazing and I adore him! Forrest Gump is my fave.

I also love Disney. Belle is my fave. I also love Up, Ratatouille and Tigger. And of course Woody!!!!
