About Me

I havenโ€™t been on in a while and looking forward to swapping again. ๐Ÿ˜Š Iโ€™ve corrected my last name from Korzenaskie to Cloud, and updated my address. Recently went through a divorce and Iโ€™ve gone back to my maiden name. Iโ€™m a US Navy vet and served 4 years active duty and 6 years in the reserves. My first duty station was Naples, Italy for 2 years. I then spent my last year and a half in Charleston SC and stayed for a total of 16 years. Loved Charleston with all the history and beautiful beaches. I still go back and visit friends as often as I can. I now live in Illinois, which is where I am from. We have lots of wineries here and I love visiting them and trying out the local wines. I love the outdoors, and l love going hiking, bike riding, and jeeping! My dream for the future is to buy a camper and travel the states.

Favorite Music

Country music

60's/70's/80's rock

Texas Swing

Big Band

Oh, and love some Rat Pack music too!

Things I want to try

Favorite Movies

My fav moives are romantic comedies, and love stories, as long as they don't make me cry too much. I like the happy ending. Life has enough sad endings. My fav old movies are:

Casablanca

It's a Wonderful Life

Fried Green Tomatoes

Dirty, Rotten, Scoundrels

I also love old Charlie Chann movies that I used to watch with my dad when I was younger.

Favorite Television

Parenthood- I loved this show and cried most of the way through it. Happy tears and sad. I have many parallels with this show (as many people have) and some I wish I had. It was beautiful seeing how a loving family and forgiveness work. If you have that, be thankful. I thought they did a great job showing reality of life and not just sugar coating it.

The Middle

Modern Family

House Hunters International

Dr. Who

Grimm

Supernatural

This is Us

Big Bang Theory

The Walking Dead

Victoria

The Blacklist

Gotham

Life in Pieces

Better Call Saul

Last Man On Earth

Last Man Standing

Mom

Outlander

Favorite Crafts

ACT's

Collage art

Re-purposing old boxes, tins, domino's, wood blocks

Personal items

Lotions with fresh scents such as white linen or cotton.

Candles with fresh/spicy scents such as cinnamon, hazelnut, pine.

I don't wear much make up except for blush, powder, mascara, and neutral eye shadow.

I love coffee and mugs.

Tea of any flavor!

I love all colors, but my favorites are autumn colors, burnt orange, brown, muted greens, gold. I really love so many colors from muted to bold.

I love milk and dark chocolate

My sock size is 8/9 USA

Wish List

ATC supplies

Vintage ephemera

Chipboard

Anything Tim Holtz

Stickles

Glass beads

Collage sheets

Pretty notecards

Small notebooks for altering (like small composition notebooks)

French themed ephemera

Vintage lace

Dislikes

I'm not into the cute stuff like Hello Kitty, Kawaii, anime (unless they are dark and gothic), Disney, children/teacher stickers.

For the Yard Sale/Thrift Store swaps, please do not send any stuffed animals.

Reading

I love to read many different kinds of books such as travel books, history, biography, and fiction of course. I now travel back and forth to work 40 minutes each way and have started listening to books on CD. I love it and have finished so many books! Iโ€™m now listening to the Harry Potter series.

I love Poe, Shakespeare, Frost, Dickinson, Fitzgerald, Hemingway, Tolkien, Wilde, Whitman, Emerson, Thoreau, Browning.

I really love the young adult books such as the Hunger Games series and the City of Bones series.

Thank you for the beautiful journal page tat you angeled for Donetta. You are a sweetheart. I left Carbondale on Friday and I am back in Florida. One of these days we are going to have to have a southern Illinois meetup. Pat๐Ÿ’•๐Ÿ’•

Jan, I want to tell you how much it meant (means!) to me that you helped to "angel" so many of my swaps when I was struggling with yet another surgery and the pain and frustration that came with the process. You and Mandy mean the world to me, and I consider you both to be wonderful friends. I do hope we have he opportunity to meet at some point...you are a very special person, and a wonderful and generous artist.
