About Me

I am in graduate school working on my Ed.D. in education and at the dissertation stage. I teach as an adjunct at a small University in South Carolina and hope they hire me full time soon. I have fallen in love with teaching at the college level. I sew to help with stress and started my business - daisylanedesigns.net - last year. I have 2 crazy dauschaunds and an even crazier roommate, who is a nurse.

Favorite Music

I like alternative rock, classical, christian, gospel, bluegrass - almost anything but hip-hop.

Favorite Books

Since I have been in school I have not had a chance to read much for pleasure. I just buy the books I want to read when I get through with school. I love mysteries - the silly ones- not the gorey ones. I love the ones about the cooks - can't think of the name now. Also an extreme Harry Potter fan!

Favorite Television

Survivor (I love Rupert!), amazing Race, NCIS, anything HGTV

Favorite Crafts

I am a crafter from birth and will try anything once. I have done welding, scrapbooking, crotcheting, needlework, rug hooking, sewing, jewerly making, cooking - you name it I have tried it.

collections and wishes

I collect frogs (rain forest frogs are my favorite), angels, antique textiles and handkerchiefs.. I like unusual things and items from other areas of the country. I like postcards and am starting a collection of handkerchiefs with the state map and name on them. I want to make a quilt from them. Chocolate always makes me happy - the darker the better. I am very easy to please !

other info

I don't like creepy crawly, morbid or pagan things although I do like goddesses. I have an allergy to perfumes and strong scents, esp. the bath and body works kind. I wear khaki and blue or red all the time. I like quirky but not teenagey (I don't know how to describe. e-mail if you have questions)

colors

My kitchen is light yellow and I use apples and teapots to decorate. My bedroom is done in pastel pinks and blues with a lot of quilts. I like antique girly stuff in the bedroom. My bathroom is yellow with lots of flowers, esp. tulips. Livingroom is in transition. I am going to use burgundy roses and stripes in linen. My office is pretty much anything goes. I love storage containers and unusual glass jars to store things in.

things I would like

I am girly without being frou frou (if that makes sense) I like shabby chic and chippy white furniture. I love soft things and comfort. I love to pamper myself and am addicted to soaps and lotions (but not with a strong smell.) If you have any more questions, just PM me.

Comment: Thank you for the long list of web sites and the packets of worksheets. When I have time I'm sure I'll use or share them but I was hoping to hear a story about your teaching experience as part of the swap.
Response: I am sorry you are disappointed. I sent what you requested in our e-mails to each other. I would be glad to offer stories of my experiences and advice if you will let me know what you are interested in.

Thank you very much for the ATC blanks! I really like the stamps you used on the envelope too. Where did you get the awesome return address stamp made?
