About Me

To explain my "1" rating... It was giving by a new member for a postcard she says she never received. I did resend with a tracking number but she refuses to change the rating, and has since left Swap-bot. I DO NOT FLAKE ON SWAPS! I enjoy reading my partner's profiles and seeing what we have in common and making my postcards more personal.

First and foremost I am looking for people who want to correspond via postcards on a regular basis! Please let me know if you are interested.

I'm mostly doing postcard swaps now and have discovered Pinterest and all of the swaps that go along with it. "Electronic Hoarding" has consumed many hours of my life. I love it.

I love swapping stamp bags,and postcards.

I live with my 7 year old son, Evan. As I mentioned, I am sadly unemployed, but when I did work it was in the field of Developmental Disabilities/Case Management. I have been newly diagnosed with Fibromyalgia.

Evan and I gave life to each other. He is an amazing little guy and loves all things Spider-Man. He also loves candy, marbles, silly bandz and dinosaurs.

I love any and all postcards and stickers. I especially love handmade things. I I also enjoy anything related to Celtic Heritage... And I have a soft spot for anything with a cyclops on it! If you ever don't receive a Swap from me, LET ME KNOW! It means it's been lost in the mail, as I send out ALL of my swaps and take a lot of pride in creating them.

I have recently gone back to my original love- making jewelry. I make a lot of things to sell on Etsy, but I also make a lot of things simply for friends and family. It brings me a lot of happiness to surprise people. Some of my items can of course be found on my etsy and insta

Please, please, PLEASE don't send me anything that smells like smoke. I'd rather not get anything at all then something that I have to put right into the trash. Sorry smokers! I used to be one too, and now I just can't stand the smell!

I am also seeking Catholic Prayer cards or items with Saints on them!!!!!!!!

Favorite Crafts

I love to make and send my own postcards! I also love to receive anything handmade. I especially love when people make something or draw something when they usually don't- I love to see what you come up with, so don't be afraid that it's not good enough! I like the following subjects/items: postcards, dogs, butterflies, ladybugs, glitter, hearts and stars, scrap booking materials, stickers, nail polish, jewelry (I never wear gold though), soap, magnets, playing cards, Religious items ( any religion), clovers, plants, used stamps, ink drawings, zentangles, address labels, tea, old photos, graveyards, interesting headstones, Prayer Cards, Day of the Dead, Evil Eyes, Bollywood style pictures and jewelry, charms, beads, eggs, stencils, notesheets, keeshonds, scrapbooking paper, mermaids, all things Legend of Zelda, things with my name on it, rainbows, good pens, palm trees, suns, moons, candles, chocolate, anything for the bath, rubber stamps, things for my hair and socks. We have a shortage of socks in this house. I'm a size 9, and my son is a toddler 10. Oh, and my absolute favorite thing that I can't find anywhere is black, salty licorice!

We LOVE SPIDER-MAN!

POSTCARDS:***** ZAZZLE and VISTA PRINT are fine by me.*******

I'm all about gay rights, animal rights, human rights and treating all living things well. So I might offend at times, which is fine with me.!n

Favorite Television

I'm a huge fan of Broad City!!!

Favorite Books

My all time favorite book is called "The Abortion: A Historical Romance" by Richard Brautigan. Read it! Read any Brautigan book and you will fall in love!

Hearts and Stars

I give hearts wherever I can. I don't understand people who are stingy with the love! Even if you're a little late, or whatever, as long as I get something I'm happy. Swap-Bot is for FUN- right? So let's have fun and not take ourselves so seriously!

To Trade!!!

I'm always willing to trade DC/MD tourist type post cards for tea, stamps, doo-dads and gee-gaws.

I would also go bananas for used foreign and domestic postage! So before you toss those envelopes just tear off that stamp and save it for me! Please! :-)

Comment: Amanda, thank you for the two postcards. I am from New England and have never heard of Goddard college. What town or city is it in? Shirley
Response: It's in Plainfield, Vermont which is right outside of Montpelier. It's okay, most people haven't heard of it. Bernie Sander's wife, Jane was provost when I went there in the 90's. Great people. Thank you for the heart!
