I'm a quilter, paper crafter, card maker, and enjoy Bible journaling, making junk journals and writing penpals. I love gardening, reading, thrift store shopping and spoiling all my many animals! My favorite types of music are contemporary Christian, new age, classical pop and country music. My favorite types of books are cozy mysteries, gardening, birds and inspirational. I love British crime dramas, Hallmark mysteries, old black and white horror movies, and anything Godzilla and Jurassic Park lol!

Ladies, I am so very sorry for my lateness on some of my swaps. My mom was put on hospice care 3 weeks ago and I’ve been helping my sister take care of her. She went to heaven at 5 this morning. We will have many preparations for her funeral, so I apologize for not getting them out on time. I appreciate your patience.

Ladies, I apologize for not getting my swaps out timely and upsetting anyone, that wasn’t my intention at all. Obviously I have too much going on in my life right now to be able to keep up with the swaps. Again, I apologize. I’m dropping out of swapbot, so please don’t send me anything else.
