HELLO Swappers, I am a 52 year old woman that has a strong desire to meet interesting people and enjoy some of my spare time swapping trinkets so here I am.
I love the company of animals and appreciate nature. My dream career is to open an animal rescue and surround myself with other folks that are as passionate as I am about animals and their amazing gift to us. My best friend and furry child is a Lynx Point Siamese boy named Simon. He is my snuggle baby and can really make me feel better when life gets me down. I have many other animals in my house as well. Meika is my sweetie cuddle kitten.
I have a quick wit, and great sence of humor. I can be outspoken but am kind and giving. I am a great listener and like to problem solve.
My interests include but are not limited to:
RVing, Swimming, Dancing, Singing Road trips in the car or on a motorcycle, Going to garage sales and Thrift stores.Shopping and selling on eBay, Reading on my Kindle, Going to movies in the theatre as well as movie night at home, Boating, Crabbing, Shrimping, and fishing, Airplanes and flying, Board Games, Travel, visiting open houses, Cooking and trying new kinds of foods, I enjoy interacting with animals of all kinds. I love flowers and would like to have a big garden and fresh flowers in my house all the time. I love to have garage sales, I am great at it and make good money whenever I do. Sometimes I find things at garage sales and thrift stores and make money from them at my sales as well as list them on eBay and Craigslist.
I listen to all kinds of music from Country, some Rap, to Classical. I love to dance and if it has a beat I can move to it.
Law & Order SVU, Walking Dead, Animal Planet anything,, The Big Bang Theory, House Hunters, Master Chef, Storage Wars, Love It or List It, Say Yes To The Dress, The Good Doctor, 911, Botched, Dr. Pimple popper, The Resident, Station 19 and adding stuff all the time thanks to the invention of the DVR.
Cats, Hummingbirds, Snakes, Lizards, Birds, I love all animals really but the ones above are favorites. From the tinest mouse to the Elephant I really like animals more than most people sometimes. I am a great defender of animals and their comfort.
Pinterest.com, Facebook.com, eBay.com, Half.com, Amazon.com, Craigslist.com, stumbleupon.com, lolcats.com, youtube.com, you have to check out offerup.com if you haven't. I have been surviving off selling my things here.
Sushi is my all time favorite, I like Thai food, BBQ, Steak, Seafood, Mexican, Indian, just about anything really but I could eat sushi every day. I was just diagnosed with type 2 diabetes and am learning how to feed myself healthy, sushi has to be without rice or with very little rice but It's still my fav food. Good thing I love vegitables.
I have tried all kinds of things as far as crafts go. If I see something someone made instead of purchase it if I feel I can make it I will do that first. If I can't make it myself, I will more than gladly purchase from the person who made it. I can cross stitch and embroider, I make fabric breakaway cat collars, I love to color like a kid and my next thing I want to try is Zentangle.
I collect Cat items, (my cat likes fuzzy balls, those sticks with feather ends, and catnip) hummingbird stuff, and little things that will fit in my type drawer shadow boxes. Little things that interest me have been tiny ceramic animals that are purchased glued to cards, I have coins from other countries, Funky little stuff that just catches my eye.
I like dark colors, jewel tone rich colors. I am not really into pastels. My favorite color is black, I like the new burnt orange that seems real popular now, I like blue, red, true deep pink, purple, dark greens, grey, white and I like crazy patterns.
I do not care for yellow.
Things I woudn't mind getting: Zentangle kit and instructions, stickers, cat lovers items, new travel mugs, stationary, slipper socks, Orange curd, postcards, erotic art like Olivia art, coffee theme items, caramel is a favorite treat, bracelets,old antique pictures of people or animals, stories of your lifes embarrassing moments, stories about your pets, beads, fat quarters with interesting prints, hummingbird theme items. PLEASE DON'T SEND IF POSSIBLE: Clown Items (they scare me lol), reward stickers or anything that smells of smoke. (Throat closes up)

I loved my boomerang card, the cats are so cute. I loved the fairy dust too. Thanks.
I hope you continue to host the Boomerang Q&A PC Swaps. I love this idea. I had to think really hard on the questions to ask you. I read the part on your profile that sparked an "ah-ha question". Once you get your p.c., you will see why. :)
Thank you again! Joy Hurley aka: SwapsAreFun
