I have 2 lovely children, a 5 year old and a 3 year old. I am married and we have 2 dogs as well. I enjoy letter writing, doing diamond painting, paint by number, building Lego kits, sewing felt plushies, watching movies, going to amusement parks and fairs, adult coloring, crafts with my kids, and thrift shopping.

I love doing brain teasers, puzzles, math problems, logic puzzles, high school and college textbook questions, workbooks and similar things for fun. I love thinking and learning. My brain thrives when occupied.

I am into anything true crime related. If you have a local case you'd like to share, I'd love to hear about it.

I resell thrifted items on Ebay, mostly vintage things. I specialize in vintage baby clothes, so that is a big passion of mine. I have a lot of fun thrifting and reselling. I am also a Doordash driver and love doing that a few days a week. Recently I completed training to become a Crisis Text Line counselor (volunteer). That has become one of the most rewarding things I've ever done! I really enjoy helping people on the platform.

Some things I like are peacocks, 90's stuff, Nirvana, Post Malone, all types of stationery, stickers, grunge, neon colors, Beetlejuice, Goosebumps, Forest Gump, Mickey Mouse, under the sea theme, outer space theme, cute pens, colorful things, coloring small pictures or postcards, mixed media art and all things vintage.

For swaps: Postcards I enjoy are: handmade, any of my above interests, non-travel themed. If swap calls for travel themed I like bright colors and greetings from.

Things I'd love to receive are: stickers, address labels, swap cards, stationery and letter sets, cool pens, lined cute paper, memo sheets, letters, vintage unused postage stamps, a doodle from you, squished pennies for my sister's collection.

I don't really care for washi samples, reward stickers, ribbon or twine, or friendship books.

I love receiving decorated envelopes!

Letter swaps: I love newsy, lengthy letters about your day, hearing about interesting things that make you YOU and seeing what things we may have in common. If you aren't into writing long letters, no worries, I love EVERY letter I receive.
