KatKit

My name is Kathy.

I'm retired from sales and marketing in the newspaper industry. Before newspapers, I was in sales for International health and beauty aids and pharmaceuticals.

I've been married for 43 years. We have 2 orange kitties that do not get along. They came to us a year apart.

I enjoy all things snail mail.... letter writing, postcrossing, greeting cards. I enjoy paper crafting. Love to visit art galleries and museums.

I spend lots of time researching family history and even joined some genealogical societies and attended some conventions.

Can spend hours browsing a book store or the stacks in a library or the book section in a thrift store or garage sale but I have a basement full of books I haven't read yet.

I find that my interests are ever evolving as I meet new people via pen pal and postcrossing sites and learn about all their interests. I usually continue to research and explore all the fun hobbies and crafts you tell me about.

Enjoy travel and in particular road trips to the southwestern United States visiting National Parks and Historic Sites. I have enjoyed some interesting train trips recently.

I like to take in a live play especially 'fringe theatre'. I enjoy a good production of Shakespeare.

The Eagles, Jazz and Broadway musicals.

Currently enjoy The Walking Dead and shows like Survivor, Big Brother, Dancing with the Stars. Love light murder mystery shows like Castle or Bones or Murdoch Mysteries etc. I'm all in when it comes to Hallmark Countdown to Christmas movies or the Hallmark Mysteries. I often watch low budget disaster movies on streaming services.

Rather fond of tea...especially chocolate orange but love to try new and different.

Always happy to receive stationery and postcards.... notecards, post its , stickers, washi and air mail stickers from your country. An unused postcard always welcome especially Lantern Press.

I also recently started to enjoy making ATC and ephemera for junk journals, so items like fun papers and scraps and die cutouts are also welcome.

Postcrossing meetup cards.

Mail art decorated envelopes.

Word or phrases stickers.

rubber stamps

Love Christmas all year.

Looking for washi tape,stickers,notecards and postcards that have bicycles, anchors,typewriters,fountain pens,envelopes,mail related and images of wine glasses and wine bottles.

PLEASE NOTE: SEEDS FROM OUTSIDE THE COUNTRY ARE NOT ALLOWED BY CANADA CUSTOMS EVEN IF THEY ARE FACTORY SEALED.

I do not sign up for something I cannot complete. I will not 'flake'. I will resend if necessary. Please contact me with any concerns. I realize the mail is truly snail like (and getting worse as time goes on) so I give plenty of time for the mail to get here. Hope you will do the same.
