Update 9-2-15: I have two 1's because On 9-12-13 I had a heart attack, swapbot was not possible for me at the time. I am just now feeling up to returning. I've checked into sending to bring the 1's up but with 1, the person is suspended and with the other the person hasn't been online in a year. I will try to find two swaps to angel to make up for the swaps and post them here. If you know of anyone needing an Angel, let me know.

Hey y'all, my name is Donna and I like cowboy boots, horses, good food, strong coffee, banjo music and books. I am a Mama of 3, Grand Mama of 4 and grateful receiver of more good gifts than one heart can hold. I fight for joy and find it in the most unexpected places. I make quirky look normal, relish in my small town Southern way of living, and am learning that it's all grace--every last bit of it.

I'm 53 years young and recently disabled due to a genetic heart condition called Hypertrophic Obstructive Cardiomyopathy. I have 3rd degree heart block due to surgery to try to correct my problem (septal myectomy), and now I'm dependant on a pacemaker (my heart don't beat without it) and a ICD.

I have two dashounds Darlin' and Dolly and two maltese Benny and Bella that keep me very busy.

I make quiet books and would love anything that could be used in them.

I started swap bot in 2008, swapped a few years and after my surgery I stayed off for two years.

I always try to send my swaps on time, if something comes up and I can't send on time I will contact you and let you know.

I would love to receive:

Cute buttons

Crinkle material

Tiny noise makers to sew in stuffed toys

Sequins

Small ric rac and trim

Any color or size felt

Cute chrildrens cotton cloth

Polka dot cotton cloth

Any small print green or blue cotton cloth.

Seed beads in any color

Glass Beads

Small Ribbon

Sewing Threads in all colors

Small Lace

Small Pom Pom Trim

Wonder Under

Quilters pen

Felt shapes, numbers or letters

Any handmade useful item

Any DIY kit with instructions to help me learn a new craft.

I'll add more as I think of them.

Dislikes

There's not much I don't like

no dead bugs

no witch stuff

I'm not a huge user of scrapbook items, I actually draw in my journals

I have no use for buttons

Don't need beads

Don't need stickers except to seal envies.

I like most music, country, rock, piano, love Christmas Carols, Gospel.

I will read just about anything I can get my hands on! The Bible. Love books set in the South, Anne Rivers Siddons, detective novels, etc

I rarely watch movies. Most of my favorites would be old classics such as Madam X and Imitation of Life. The Bible would be my favorite.

Big Brother, Gunsmoke, Golden Girls, Big Brother!

Busy (Quiet) Books.

If you wish to send something for my sweetheart he loves sweets of any kinds, books on cd, he likes listening to them in the car also. He and his family are huge card givers so I think any unused card or notecard would be appreciated.

They love to tear up toys, the little dollar store ones are great because they will only last a day or two. The less stuffing the better! They love the squeekers! Tiny treats are great, they are small so it has to be small!
