**im back from my break & ready to swap & be penpals! **
Tuck ins: If you're not sure what to send my way, I love stickers (no kiddy, reward or puffy), interesting notecards & postcards, washi tape samples, sticky tabs & bookmarks. I also like to receive real life movie ticket stubs, shopping receipts & any type of piece of information from your hometown! I use them for journaling.
I do not want used stamps, ribbon or any type of crafting things like yarn & thread, handmade envelopes, scrapbook paper, etc. I simply don't use them.
Ratings: I don't open my mail the same day I receive it. I usually rate 2 days out of the week when I gather all my mail, sit in a quiet room & open it. Due to my Adhd if I were to open it the day of, I will more than likely get distracted by something & completely forget I ever opened your mail. I thank everyone for your patience when it comes to rating you.. I promise I pledge to rate everyone. If I haven't received something from you, I will contact you first before giving a low rating. I am currently up to date with ratings as of 11/26.
Theme: When it comes to decorating my swaps I always do it according to the seasons & holidays. I check everyone's profiles to make sure whatever theme I have going on isn't in your dislikes, if it is I will try to cater to your preferences. I use my Halloween stationery throughout the whole year.
Recommendations: I am always looking for something new to watch while eating dinner or working on swaps. I have most streaming services so feel free to suggest movies or shows!
Reading is a passion & I could use more books in my TR list. I'm looking for recommendations in the thriller/psych (the more twists the better), contemporary fiction, dystopian sci-fi, lgbtq+, young adult & poetry... I'd love to know what you're reading! I'm not a big fan of historical fiction, sappy romance/chick lit or memoirs but I'm open to giving it a try. Send over your goodreads username if you have one!
Writing prompts: What song are you currently obsessed with? How is today's weather making you feel? What made you smile today? What is on today's menu?
In my home we believe black lives matter, no human is illegal, love is love, woman's & lgbtqia + rights are human rights, this land belongs to the natives, science is real, mental health matters & hate has no home here. Keep all your negativity to yourself & don't send it my way.
Hi, I'm Ali. I'm 29 & I live with my wonderful partner & our 11 month old pup in a geese filled state of felicity. I watch too much tv, read past my bedtime & have an immense fondness for food. I'm scared of mostly everything, scream with joy when I see a dog & am deeply in love with Halloween.

I do not celebrate Easter (bunny stuff is okay but nothing religious), 4th of July, Columbus day, St. Patrick's day, & Thanksgiving so please don't send me anything related.
Lately I've been receiving not so happy mail; I don't expect a full art project but I would appreciate a note, stickers on your envelope, anything that makes it more personal. I hate having to trash swaps right after because it looks like it took 10 minutes to put together for an easy rating.
No tea, please. I don't drink it. it will just be left in a cabinet until I remember & be thrown out unless I am in a swap where I can send tea bags.
For the most part I don't like being sent religious things but if you celebrate Islam, Judaism, Buddhism, Hinduism, Wicca, Paganism, etc.. & want to send me things based on your religion for educational purposes & you're not trying to convert me then I have no problem with that. Please no Christian or Catholic things.
Certain scents such as cigarette smoke. If you're a smoker please try to keep it away from your swaps. & Essential oils. If you difuse oils please try to do it away from your swaps as the smell lingers & I get chronic migraines. If this happens I will either throw away the swap or try to air it out. Also, I don't want to buy your Young Living essential oils.
Cars, wedding, baby shower, very old school things, sports, steampunk, used stamps.

Please disregard. I'm trying to get caught up.
I think I may have messed up this swap. Please let me know when (if) you receive your halloween washi tapes. So sorry if you don't receive them soon I will resend. We had a family emergency.
I sent a swap to you on October 15th for UHM National Cat Day. You should have received by now. I sent you a PM asking about this two times. First time was 5 days ago. You have read them and I know life gets busy. I'd like to close out my swap board and know you've received okay. Please rate so I know you've received. Hope to hear from you soon.

Got your letter a few days ago, sent my reply to you today! Hope it gets to you safely 😊 Take care~
