About Me

Hi my name is Sherry, but I got the nickname Churlann from my kids a long time ago. They thought it was cute so it stuck with me. I live in a small rural farming community called Pennsylvania Furnace, PA. I have been retired from teaching elementary kiddos, in an emotional support program, for 11years now!
I am a Gramma to 7 beautiful children, ages range from 14 to 7 months and counting. I live with my husband, and our cat, Maybelle. We lost our little Beagle, Angel, during the Pandemic. We miss her everyday. Maybelle has been so entertaining. She is getting big and loves to explore the outdoors. We love having a garden and raising some chickens. We have 12 Barred Rock hens that bless us with eggs every day. My newest hobby is kayaking, although not in January when I am writing this. I got a kayak for my 70th birthday at the beginning of the pandemic. It was the highlight of our pandemic summer! My whole family are all photographers. My favorite subjects are landscapes from my kayak, animals, old barns, anything interesting that catches my eye, and of course all those grandkids too!

I love to read books but mostly in the winter. I love to cook and try new and interesting recipes. I have been gluten free and low sugar for six years now and feel so much healthier for it. So if you are sending me recipes, keep that in mind. Thanks.

I have three grown children, and even though they aren't at home anymore, I still spend time with them whenever I can. We are a very close family. I have been married to the same wonderful man for 48 years and we are happy to this day. Sam retired last summer and it's been going great.

Favorite Music

I love music,!! I have a huge collection of CD's. My grandson wanted to count them all one day when he was here. And there were over 600!! Some of them are signed by the artist. My favorite genres are Bluegrass, Old Timey, Old Country, old Rock and Roll, and some jazz and western swing. We love❤️ to go to Bluegrass festivals and live concerts, at small venues, not the Megatron ones.

My hobbies and interests

I have so many hobbies. I love creating beauty into the world. Some of my favorites are... Sewing, crocheting, needle felting, felt applique, photography, kayaking, reading books, collecting music CDs, listening to those CDs all the time, walks in the woods, and creating with my grandkids. Also watching movies and documentaries, doing house projects, traveling to new places, visiting thrift and antique stores, collecting bells and little thermometers. I love spending time with family and close friends too.

Message to swappers

PLEASE...don't forget to RATE when you receive a swap. I love reading your comments too. I don't archive until rates are done both ways.

Let me know by message if you have not received my swap. I will make it right!! I would hate to get a low rating for something that didn't show up. I am faithful at sending. I love reading the notes in my swaps. I learn so much about people. So if you send me something I will definitely read it.

Things I love to receive

POSTCARDS: I love receiving all the interesting and beautiful postcards. However, I get so bummed when I receive one that has been damaged going through the meter. Hand cancel would avoid this. So if you're taking them to the post office, ask and they will do that for you. I especially love vintage and black and white postcards. Art themed, animals, and birds, patriotic, inspirational quotes, handmade ones too. I love to get postcards from other countries, blank or written on. I accept all pcs with love 😘. I love pieces of artwork, old book pages, old sheet music, pretty art project papers, anything that would be used for art/collage projects and fun sticky notes and stickers.

Comment: Sounds like you had a lovely weekend! I miss corn on the cob. Corn in Korea is different and sweet corn has a really short season and is hard to find. Thank you so much for the extra notecard! Cards are hard to come by in Korea so I always appreciate them!

Comment: Thanks for the great letter! I've actually been to State College to see Ed Kowalcyzk perform (lead singer of the band Live). And you know I always scream when I see cats!! Except in their faces, mine tend not to like that ;) It sounds like you have a lot to be thankful for! Helene didn't affect the Triangle nearly as bad as the mountains. We were very fortunate.
Response: So glad you are safe❣️

Comment: I absolutely love this card you picked out (and I see you sneakily not writing on the photo part of it; that's so thoughtful of you) 🌸 I'm so happy for you getting a new washer! We got our dryer repaired last month and it's so refreshing~ 💜 How was the festival? Hopefully not too soggy from the rain. I bet your husband's performance was wonderful! ✨ Thank you for the wonderful card and the super cute extras. Though, honestly, I was having so much fun reading that I almost didn't see them! 💜
Response: Aww, thanks for your kind words.

Hi Sherry, I'm still missing a rating from you and my PM to you is still unread. Please let me know if you need a re-send or what happened. Thank you

Hey Sherry, I sent you a message a couple weeks ago about a rating I'm missing from you that I would like to get sorted out. Please check your PMs and get back to me. Thanks!
