☆☆☆☆NOTICE 10/30/11☆☆☆☆

Ok, I need to let you know that my family and I are making a cross country move this week. I will not have access to a computer during the transport/move. We plan to reach our destination by the 9th. This is, of course, worst case scenario. I must apologize to my partners because for the first time ever I know I will be late on a couple of swaps...all my stuff was packed on me before I was able to finish. This move is unexpected, which means that it was NOT planned. I apologize in advance and to those that are still having to send my way, please HOLD on sending until I have a correct address to post here.

My Wall of Shame

I never thought I had to include this in my profile, but here it is...damn shame I tell ya! Not only do feelings get hurt, but a slight anger lingers..

@outsideartist for Altered Cigar Box Swap #2 - This was angelled by the wonderful @cajunhillbilly

@SIEN for I Love Kawaii - INCHIES!

@lyn44246 for ATC addicts - favorite colors ATC pair! which is a dang shame because I was really looking forward to this! update on 9/3/2011- this was angeled by @thisismeAXiD

@socialbutterfly for Random Postcard Swap #5 this swap was wonderfully angeled by @123Poggy123 thank you for sending more than expected!

QTA - Key ATC angeled by@Juliajae. Thank you so much!

If I haven't rated you, it is because I have NOT received your swap. I always rate as soon as I open, and I never open my mail away from my computer(yes, it may sound weird, but that is where my desk is)

I am adding the note below for the coordinators that need to verify certain things in participants' profiles. I have yet to be rated by:

☣ @SpringinStep for Harry Potter Bookmark Swap #3 - Prisoner of Azkaban

☣ @mimisart for Random Envie Swap #1

☣ @hunnybunny1020 for A Handmade Victorian Valentine

☣ @badgerlore for Postcard Penpals

I have contacted them. Many attempts have been made, but I am still waiting for a response. :)

I am having somewhat a hard time creating holes for my wonderful Rolo's, so I have been on the lookout for a Sizzix cartridge #655762 Telephone and address. Apparently it is a retired cartridge, and no one has it in stock! Would love a trade, cc transaction, whatever, but this one is something I would love to get my hands on soon!

I really hope you don't feel/get overwhelmed at looking at my profile's length, but how else will my partners get a glimpse of what I like and my personality?

Ok, on to the profile

Yes, that's right, I am a proud sahm, and somehow manage to stay sane! I am a HUGE crab, which therefore makes me naturally love water, and very emotional. II have multiple personas, but that does not deem me crazy, at least not yet. I am a true and sappy romantic with a fancy for things on different ends of the spectrum. Colors, music, books, themes, movies, and tv shows.

Currently, my fave color is pink, but that might be a little obvious. Although I also like turquoise and black. I enjoy anything that is Parisian/Vintage French themed. I am leaving behind the cute-sie stuff and have been drifting to slight steampunk, or more adult themes. I enjoy all colors, but my least favorite is orange.

I also like deco tape, Female superheroes, herbal tea(no vanilla please nor English tea please), stationery and journals. I also accept FB's. No Slams or LB's please, unless I am in a swap that involves this. I also love to make people happy, and try my hardest to please even random strangers. I love the ocean, lakes, rivers and the sun. I love the rain and I also love the rainbows. I love to take pictures and I mostly love music and dancing every now and then! Yes, shakin the bootie is a HUGE stress reliever pour moi. I love love, and if the world had more of it, well, it would be that much better!

Books by Suzanne Collins,J. K. Rowling, Chloe Neill, Richelle Mead, Maggie Stiefvater, Melissa De la Cruz, Cassandra Clare, Pittacus Lore, P. C. Cast,James Patterson, Alyson Noël, Kami Garcia,Melissa Marr, Elizabeth Chandler, Michelle Zink, Nancy Holder, L.J. Smith...and lots more. Sure, these might seem a little young adult-not suitable for me, but they are more than that!

I guess this is where I might creep people out. I have my sweet dark side. I love learning about all things supernatural, witches, vamps, lycans, the walking dead. Sure this might seem a little creepy, but life has so many possibilities, so why not this. I also like fantasy art, cute and gory graphics, and scaring the crap outta my kids and partner, lol.

Yes, I am a mom on the run for most of the time. But I try my best to make time for all the swaps that I sign up for. I have been sending out swaps usually almost right after partners have been assigned. Send date is the date that I put it in my mailbox, yes people, I live in the middle of nowhere, and this is how I mostly do it. If it snows real bad, then, this affects mail, as it does in most other places. If, and I imply IF for some reason you have not received a swap, or it has taken more than 2 weeks after my sent date, please send me a PM. We will try and figure it out together. This of course applies to US, if you are not in the US, please allow 3-4 weeks, as I do the same for international partners sending to me. If for some reason you have a question, feel free to ask. If I could help you in any way, ask. If you need conversation, send me a pm, if you need a shoulder, well, I guess I could lend it to you, cyber speaking of course. I am a full believer in karma, and therefore I try not to do or treat others negatively. If I do act rude or negative, well, something triggered it, and I apologize ahead of time.

I am open to one on one trades, and if you need me to host I will. I can send international as well. So the further you are, the happier I would be in swapping with you privately!

Please remember to rate. I usually do right after I figure out what swap I just received. It is simple and common courtesy, and just puts a smile on my face knowing that you received my package.

I do not have many dislikes, but I do ask that if you plan on sending me anything religious, it might cost you a heart. I like new things, so I live with an open mind and an open heart. It is such a free way of life, and the plus is that I learn more! I leave you with this: dance, life is short so just dance and let the music lead you to peace and relaxation.

Music frees the spirit.

So what are you waiting for, LET LOOSE BABY!
