*** Updated, 5/5/13 For all those waiting for my to host more of my anything goes swaps, i plan to get a few more of those going here soon. I just found out this week that i have MS and i have been going under a lot of treatments and tests so i need to get all this figured out before i get all crazy again with these swaps. but i do plan to get them going again soon so i am going to work on the swaps i have joined to date and catch up on some pen pal letters, as soon as everything settles down again i will get back into the hosting again. Thank you for understanding and for all of you who have joined all my swaps and wonder when they are coming back. I just have to focus on my health for the moment and as soon as all the medical issues are straighten out i will be up and running in the game again. :)

Just wanted to start with a foot note... I send out all my stuff for swaps the day that names come up me to send to. If by the end of the swap and you are in the US (outside of the US takes longer to get to so that is understood.) but if you have not gotten anything from me and I am on your list to get from please let me know and I will resend the items from that swap. with snail mail anything could happen to it. But I never don't send anything. so please let me know before you rate me as if I didn't do it, because I always send out right away! Best way to solve a problem is good communication. I am a firm believer in that. I personally do not try to do any rating for at least a month unless I receive the item then I post a rating right away! So please if you have any questions I am open to talking them out :)

ok so HELLO from Sacramento CA. I am in love with POST CARDING!!!! I love getting them in my mail box and sending them out as well. I also like writing letters, so if you are looking for a pin pal that writes long letters, that would be me :) I am 35 years old and my partner (Alicia) and I have been together for 7 years and have been married for almost 5 years. My partner and I are raising my 14 year old son, Shannon. They get almost as excited as I do when a new post card comes in the mail. We cant wait to see where the next one is coming from or where the next one is going out to. I love all kinds of postcards. there is no one type that I like. I love seeing the area in which people life in and just the cute little funny cards as well. I enjoy reading a little bit about people that fits on these cards as well. Its all like having friends all over the world. I love to read, write Cross stitch. I love cats. We have 4 right now, Peepers, Cooper, Ramsay and Bella and we also have a rat named C.B. I am a open book as they say so feel free to ask me anything. This is all a new hobby for me and I am loving every moment of it! I also collect pencils. I don't know why or how it happened but I love them and all the different kinds that you can get with different stuff all over them. they are awesome :)

BY THE WAY!!!!... If I ever forget to put a postage stamp... please don't rate me a 1 or something like that... just let me know and I can either send you a replacement stamp or the money you had to pay. I have only been known to do this once and I felt like a monkeys butt!!!

I love any kind of postcards! All I ask is that you put on it where you are from so that I can know where you are coming from. Just something that I like to have in building my collection! Thank you ( A few favorites of mine are waterfalls, light houses and areal shots. but I truly am happy with anything that comes in the mail with my name on it.) I have to thank the many people who have sent me some amazing cards!

I've just started making my own swaps. So this should be a lot of fun.. If you have any questions ask away. I don't always see swaps that I am looking for so I figured that the best way to see them is to make them. I love black and white and vintage swaps as I have LOTS of them so that is what I am going to be focusing on and your regular just anything goes types of swaps too.. I'm looking forward to seeing how this part of swap bot goes. :)

There isn't to much music that I wont listen too, I do however have a hard time with rap and heavy metal... I don't like music that makes my ear want to bleed and that I cant understand what is being sung about. That is just me personally

I LOVE to read... If I sat here to wrote out everything that I like to read I would be here all day long. If it opens or I can get it on my kindle I'm reading it. I grew up reading VC Andrews. And I have read the Harry Potter books more then should be humanly right!!! and I just loved the Hunger games books. I just love love to read!!! I have just found a store where I can get used VC Andrews books and Danielle Steels book for pretty cheap and that made me hecka happy :) now I can collect again

I love to write. so if you are looking for a pen pal... you found a good one. I have been known to write really long letters, they may start off a little on the short side till we get to know each other and then its on lol the longest letter I have ever written was 21 pages... that was to a friend of mine that I had known for 12 years and we hadn't been in contact for a few years lol. I don't see writing another one of those for some time to come but it has been known to happen so I hope you like to read! So if you are looking for a pin pal friend... message me and we can exchange address. :) I answer all letters, sometimes it might take me a little bit to get right back to you but I do write back. If I get behind do to work issues or school issues with my son it maybe a little bit before I can get back to you but I will. No letter sent to me will go unanswered!

I am a substance abuse counselor working in a DUI school to try and help prevent clients from getting more DUI's then what they have when they come to us. I have been in the substance abuse field for the last 5 years and I love what I do. I have my own history of addiction and have not been drunk in a little over 11 years now. So it feels great to be the one that can give back now :)
