UPDATED PROFILE 2/20/2023

• Swappable Items: I haven't quit so please do not write QUIT on my labels. Please don't send me items without contacting me first. I am actively swapping Traveling Sticker Postcards but not much else these days due to time constraints. I am still receiving random swappable items & do send them out as I receive them, but please do not send me large amounts without checking with me first as they may sit for several months before I can get to them or get them back out.

*PLEASE DO NOT MAKE FB'S OR SHEETS WITH MY LABELS. * I am not accepting new penpals at this time.

• My Aunt Gina passed suddenly 2/2/2022 in a tragic accident. It's so painful to know that this world has lost such an amazing soul. It was such a privilege to know her in this lifetime. This accident has changed my life in many ways. I will be spending less time swapping/crafting and more time with my loved ones moving forward.

My name is Stephanie, She/her. Late 30's, reside in Florida with my life partner & two wild but mostly pleasant children. I have too many pets/livestock, a decent garden, and a large property that needs a ton of work constantly. It borders a nature reserve so we have all kinds of wildlife from coyotes to turkeys to wild boars. I rock a messy bun & chipped nails daily because who has time to primp when you work on a hobby farm. I am not easily offended. I am a lifelong user of profanity though we rarely do so in front of others we are not close to and comfortable with. I love my animals, my crotch goblins (In the words of Robin Williams, I'm a crude rude dude. Bangarang!), oddities, skulls, stickers, video games, reading, growing things, making my own tea, and hiding inside when it's too hot which is 8 out of 12 months here in Florida. 16+ year recovered addict, survivor, breaking unhealthy habits & cycles one day at a time. Progressive parent. I'm an introvert (INFJ-A), green witch, healer, currently learning herbalism, studying runes, I'm a Heathen, collector of stories, books, stickers, jars, tiny things, & experiences. Florida Theme Park & Florida State Park connoisseur.

I am one of those weirdlings who takes swapping as a commitment. If I join a swap, it is going out to you, most likely well before the last send date. I am extremely understanding, will contact you before ever rating you down, if I haven't received, or the swap wasn't up to the swap standards, and will contact you for communication. I am a big believer in issues being easily solved with communication. All of my social media is linked above other than FB (I will not accept friend requests there as I post private photos of my spawn) and you can find me on any of those. As of 2023 I am not very active on social media though I do hop on from time to time.

I pledge to check the forum and flakers group to make sure the people who join the swaps I host are not flakers or double profilers, and if I somehow miss something and you are flaked on in a swap I host, I will ALWAYS angel once you have rated the person a 1.

I ALWAYS send & I always rate, usually on the day I've received. If I have somehow missed rating you, please message me and I will fix it promptly. I will always angel any swaps I have hosted if you have been flaked on, and said flaker will be banned from joining in on any future swaps I may host as well.

I re-use/recycle packaging and usable craft materials and I hope you do the same! I compost waste, upcycle, recycle and reuse as much as possible.

I had a short lived obsession with the Twilight Saga & founded a group called Twihards that was active 2010-2011. The group is still open, but not active.

Penpals: My letters will slow down when its busy for me but I will always respond. I typically respond within a month, sometimes 2-3 depending on how busy life is at the time. 2/20/2023 I am several months behind on letters.

I would love to receive: pretty paper scraps, stickers, your playlist (especially stuff that is not on the radio), lists of facts about you!

I love tea. Packaged or loose. Black or Herbal. I grow my own tea plants & herbs and enjoy mixing them for tea. I especially love the Tazo dessert type teas lately. They're like a sweet treat without the calories.

Music: I enjoy a bit of music from many different genres. I would love if you send me a playlist as an extra in any swap. I am always searching for hidden gems & music I haven't heard yet (ie: stuff you don't hear on the radio!). Send me your playlist!

TV: We currently use Netflix, Hulu, Disney +, and Peacock, & also have a Roku but I rarely watch tv. Send me your suggestions! I enjoy some dramas, historical dramas, romantic comedies, etc

I am an avid reader. I love fantasy, YA, Romance, and some horror. Reading has been a passion of mine since I was a small child. Lately I have been reading webtoons also. Midnight Poppy Land is my all-time favorite.

I have not been rated for a whole bunch of swaps sadly. Please rate your partners. They put a lot of time and effort into the swaps you receive. Why is this so difficult for people to do?

• I have dogs in my home so the occasional hair may catch on a piece of tape but I tend to keep a clean crafting space.

• Smoke free home!
