STUFF THE MAILBOX 46 Someone HACKED my accounts. I stopped getting swapbot swap signup or reminder emails and I thought it was swapbot being messed up. It is worse: I did not sign up for stuff the mailbox 46. I don't have the stash to do a swap this size so I wouldn't. I received a rating today which is how I found out. I contacted the swap coordinator. I cannot see the swap in my current, sent or archived swapbot folders.

I am usually early in mailing out trades. If you haven't received mine in a decent amount of time, please let me know. I try to make every trade a happy one for YOU! If it is late, it is definitely the mail system.

Hi! My name is Deborah, and I am 54 years old. I have 3 adult children and 3 grandchildren. I have had several serious health issues including cancer, sepsis, and a time on life support. As a result, I consider family, friends, and making new friends the #1 blessing in my life. I'm a very easygoing person, and I do not sweat the small stuff. I am not easily offended. I believe in putting kindness out in the world.

Making art is therapeutic for me and it makes me very happy to share the things I create/collect and hopefully brighten someone's day. These swaps are meant to be FUN. I'm not here to read postmarks or to critique art skills.

Right now I am working on the following crafts: collage, mixed media, gelprinting, acrylic painting classes, art journaling, mail art, and artist trading cards..

I do this list to make it easy for swap partners. Swaps should be easy and fun:
