About Me

All I can say about the past two years is when life gives you lemons make lemonade. Due to medical issues I no longer make ATCs and do fiber arts, although I still do make some mini quilts and soap when able.

I'm an eclectic eccentric great grandma enjoying the golden years with my cats (and my SO). I practice Yoga, Reiki, aromatherapy, and other alternative health methods.

I'm a second-generation stamp collector and have been collecting both WW and US for 70+ years. I prefer stamps before the self-adhesive era as my world stamp album only goes to 1970. I really appreciate US stamps from 1975 to 2000 as I recently upgraded my US album. My US collection is complete from 1922 to 1974 and I have all special delivery and airmail to1974.

I don't send extras and I don't need any so please don't feel you have to send anything. I give hearts for honest effort not extras.

I don't care for politics, organized religion, dogs, avocados, and people who put exclamation points at the end of every sentence..

Favorite Music

Folk/World music, 40s Big Band, Grateful Dead, Classic rock, Classical some Country

Don't like rap and heavy metal; mostly like music before 1975 or so.

Favorite Books

Anything by Michener, especially liked The Source. I worked in libraries for almost 50 years so have read a lot. After I retired I put down the books and started living. Life is getting shorter every day. I do like time travel and historical novels but I consider historical to be at least 100 years in the past; not 1970.

Anything by Preston and Child

Favorite Movies

Mostly oldies like on TCM. Gone with the Wind, San Francisco, Titanic, Harry Potter too many more to mention.

Not crazy about science fiction, horror, violence.

Favorite Television

House, NCIS, CSI, Murdoch, Gray's Anatomy, Disjointed, Outlander, Virgin River, Shtisel, Brit comedies, Documentaries, Historical movies, etc, etc, etc.

My best-liked series have all ended so I'm looking (mostly without success) for new ones. Any suggestions?

I don't care for violence, horror, science fiction, cartoons

Favorite Crafts

Junk Journals Quilting, ATCs, Fiber arts, Embroidery, Stamp collecting, Soapmaking Silverplate butter knives, Antique/vintage sewing machines, Gardening, Camping.

Comment: I am SOOOOO sorry that it seems like I took so long to rate you. I just discovered that I wrote the rating on another swap that was named almost the same as this one. Big OOPS! Anyway - this is what I wrote in the comments on that swap on December 7: How fun! Learning abstract! I know nothing about what makes an abstract work or not, as I am a realist when painting. I love the colors and vibrancy of the ATC. Thanks! And I loved the tiny envelope you made to put the ATC in :-)

Comment: You are so funny! The "ugliest background" you ever made - haha. Actually I rather like it. The green and blue blended together nicely providing a bit of texture. And of course I like the added plants :-) I had fun with the one I did. I lightly put on white paint and then pressed black paper into it. Then refined it a bit and made Birch trees. Loved how it worked out.
Response: That sounds like a wonderfully creative way to make that card.

Comment: I never even thought of doing "dirt" and how nice you made it with the circles! Can't wait to get out and play in my dirt; already thinking of starting my plants inside, but today is very overcast, so not much sun would get into the window. The Hudson's Bay store is still there, if you went downtown.
Response: I know how you feel -- I am so ready for Spring and playing in the garden

Comment: Thank you for your Morse code ATC - it is fun! BTW, I made this same mistake before - this swap is actually for TWO ATCs and not one. It is OK, no need to send a me a second one. I thought you would want to know if you are joining this series of swaps in the future. Happy swapping!

Comment: Judith, thank you so very much for this gorgeous ATC that you sent me!! I think that Pheasants are gorgeous birds, I see them sometimes around my house, but the most popular bird neighbor I see often are Turkeys! I love watching birds as well! I love this ATC so much, I am so excited and happy to add it into my collection:) Thank you so so very much again, I am so grateful to have been your partner<3<3
