About Me

Hello Swap-Bot Peeps,

I just discovered this cool place yesterday. Where have I been? Well I am here now and ready to swap stuff. LOL I love crafting, and thrift stores, baking and watercolors. Lately I have been totally into upcycling things. In fact, I am sure that I have crafting ADD. I start a lot of projects and never finish them, because I get bored. The secret to my success is anything that can be completed in one or two sittings. Can't wait to see what all the creative people on here create! I do have a craft fear that my work will look like a 12 year old in art class, but what the heck, I'm up for some constructive criticism!

OK Some things about me (very random list)

Love to Read - Stephen King is my favorite. I am his number one fan (lol) Also, James Patterson, Alexander McCall Smith, Margaret Atwood, Tabitha King, I belong to a Book Club that meets once a month - I have really enjoyed reading books I would not have chosen for myself and discussing with others. Goes to show that I don't know everything =) I have two grown sons, and 2 beautiful grand babies. I like grands much better than children. Been Married to a wonderful man named Gary, Forever.
Have 2 dogs - Brandy and Candy, neither of which I named (sadly Candy passed away, Jan 2015. RIP my good girl) Have 2 Beta fish and 2 little frogs( also sadly passed away) Love the beach and the pool Love flowers and gardens and ponds oh my Love love love to travel. anywhere, anytime Love to Cruise. 15 and counting I am unemployed and loving it, Baby! Avid Crafter. Am an amateur watercolorist. I can crochet but not knit I am a Libra and a very typical one at that. I'm not lazy just too tired to move. I drink 5 hour energy shots almost daily. (No no no. Can't believe I ever did that!) I am a terrible housekeeper and need to have company once in a while to force me to make it happen. I love to laugh and have fun and find humor in myself and the craziness that is sometimes, my life. I will not keep a secret if it has ANY comedic value.
I love Jesus (wow that so should have been on the top of the list) Born Again Baby I miss my sweet Mama who died in June 2009. I miss my Pops who died in 2005 I am grateful to have a FABULOUS step Mom who I call Nana. I miss my German Shepherd, Beau who died in August 2009 I have a fabulous Sister named Leslie I have a fabulous BFF named Susan I love thrift stores! I love upcycling stuff.
I am only Green when it doesn't take any effort on my part =( I love to eat and cook and bake and try new things Won't go out in public without my make up on.

I am truly BLESSED and have a pretty good life.

I look forward to ALL forms of artwork. If you made it, I will appreciate it. :)

Comment: Thank you for the card! It's great that you can have a great holiday season with your step-mother! My father and I have been debating going to the Christmas Town at Busch Gardens, but we weren't sure if it would be worth the money. I am glad to hear that it is nice; we will have to try and get up there this year or next. Thanks again!

You will NOT believe this!!!!! The original card you sent me for the QTA PC Swap #9 just arrived!!!! LOL Even the only 44cent postage can't stop these cows arriving to England!!!! Love the card by the way :-) Have always wanted to go to an Amish community. Such a different and interesting culture. Many thanks Robbin. I am sending you a postcard now :-) cheers, Alicia

Hi Robbin! Thanks for the little letter with the swap you sent! I did see the Lovely Bones movie, I liked it, but I think I like the book better. I do need to re-read it one of these days. I haven't read the Time Travellers Wife, though I loved the movie. The book club you're in sounds cool, I wish there was something like that around here. I just moved to this town about a year ago, or city I should say! But haven't found any clubs like that. Though i do frequent the library! Right now i'm reading the Black Dagger Brotherhood books by JR Ward. She's a romance writer, and the books are vampire, action, and romance all thrown into one amazing series! If you like True Blood you might like this series. The first book is called Dark Lover. I was getting them at the library, but it took too much time between books so I just went out and bought them all!!
