ATTENTION SWAPPERS: I have covered many in postage that have not added enough to their swaps, I have sent all swaps on time or well before time due. I can't afford the time I take to make something special for folks, pay the proper postage only to receive low ratings!! I love swapping and I will miss it but just don't have to time or energy to bother anymore. HAPPY SWAPPING YA'LL

Just want to let you all know to double check your postage. I have had to pick up and pay extra postage on the last 6 swaps I have received, The postoffices have electronic competition now and are really becoming sticklers, I pray noone has had to pay extra postage on the things I have sent out. IF SO.,,, I appologize! JUST BE AWARE how sticky they are getting.

I am a Christian stay at home mom that loves to do all kinds of art, my favorite art is drawing and painting. I homeschool my children of which three of them I graduated .(one graduated from ps) I have one more left with four years to go, I live in a little corner of Virginia where fast pace living is nonexistant. I live on 28 acres and have dogs, horses, and lots and lots of God's creations. I am very involved with my church (nondenominational) and put the Lord first in my life.
