About Me

I am easily amused and also pretty easy to please. I have a soft spot for animals, especially kittens. I love colors in pink, blue and purple ranges, especially together/combinations. I like reading witty, personal stuff. When I'm in the mood, I like to go to junk shops, thrift stores and yard sales to get things -- locally and on trips, too. I tend to lean left but try to stay open-minded. It does not bother me that my friends and I often have different opinions — but I don’t tolerate cheating, lying, or selective misinformation. I believe in live/let live as long as nobody's getting hurt.

Comment: Hi Lou! Always great to be partners with you! Thank you for the great photos - I never get to see squirrels in an upright position, as MGM chases them every chance she gets! LOL! I also love seeing wild turkey! All the best! Hugs, Happy Swapping, and Snapping! ;)

Comment: Thank you so much for the great swap! I love the stamps you sent and the paper you wrote on was perfect! There is not an interesting story behind my username. I just put together random words that I thought sounded good together in hopes it wasn't taken already. LOL Also, I do enjoy movies but I am not up to date on what is new. Maybe I should look into the AMC subscription. I love the Mr. Zip postage. I don't have any so that's exciting. Thanks for hosting so many great swaps!

Comment: Thank you so much for your lovely swap. I loved to read about your kitty <3 The three kitten on your card look so cute. I also had once a red-gold tabby and a grey tabby cat. The red also was named Leo. The vintage stamps you used on the envelope are gorgeous. I LOVE them and will be in a good use for future creative projects <3

Comment: Thank you, Lou, for this swap I received last July! As you know I've been away from SB almost a year and a half and therefore am very late in getting this rating to you. I actually JUST opened your envie. Can you believe I let it sit unopened for so long? I'm sure it's because I didn't want to open it until I was ready/able to rate immediately too. Anyway I loved the two little notecards in PINK and the two extra cards. And yes I did LOVE that bright pink notecard on which you wrote your note! 😍 Also thank you for the lovely variety of postage stamps you put on the envelope! I always love to see that. ❤️...

Comment: Hello Lou! What an awesome assortment of notecards! If I could rate more stars I definitely would. I love the hand cancelled stamps. I get tired of the ugly black mark the post office likes to put on vintage stamps. These are beautiful and perfect. Thank you for making my day!

Comment: Thank you for the lovely letter (I enjoyed reading what you wrote), notecards, and sticker sheet. I do appreciate the many pretty stamps as well. It’s, mercifully, cooler in Singapore these days but the air is still sticky and humid. 😳

Comment: Thank you! I so enjoy reading your letter. I did see the new Beetlejuice movie with my friends and we all enjoyed it. I also enjoy libraries though I tend to check out e-books nowadays which means I don't go to the actual library as much anymore. :( Thanks for the adorable cat notecard, vintage postage stamps and cat stickers. So much fun opening this! Happy swapping!

Comment: Thank you Lou. I'l try to come back with further comments. 🤗 I'm back to add to this swap. Oh my goodness, all of the unused old(er) green stamps. Love them!! I love how you matted lall of the 1 cent Bobcat stamps on yellow cardstock! Plus the very cute black cat yellow note paper. You went all out with the yellow everywhere and all of your creative art work (handmade little yellow hearts 💛 on tan hearts on the back of the envelope). There's even more! I'll have to send another message to thank you for it all. Everything is in pristine condition. A perfect swap. 💛
