About Me

Hi!

I am a 51yr old mom of two boys and I have been married 28 years now to a wonderful man who puts up with my crafting. Both of my sons are autistic (ASD).

I love butterflies and woodland animals such as foxes and deer. I look forward to going to Disneyland in the future.

My family and I do celebrate secular holidays.

Please message me if a swap is late or gone missing. Depending on when the USPS picks up the mail, it may be postmarked the day after I SENT it. This should not cause a problem as I send my mail off days before the send by date.

Favorite Crafts

I am back to making books! I have a lot of fun making journals, magpie books and deco books.

Mostly I have been diamond painting and bead embroidery.

This is a picture of diamond painting using a light pad. It can help quite a bit for those that have difficulty seeing.

I tend to do diamond painting with special rhinestones. I just enjoy all the colors. Similar to what you see below. You can see more on my IG link at the top of my profile.

Favorite Music, TV & Books

I prefer listening to YouTube the most. I will have it on in the background while crafting. I do watch some shows on Netflix but it is on rare occasion. I have been watching DARK and Lucifer as of late.

I have actually never had a favorite book. I used to read lots of books as a teen. As I became older, I just had worse and worse reading comprehension. I read passages over and over and nothing stuck. I found it very frustrating. It took me a while but I found out it is from a symptom of fibromyalgia called fibrofog.

Small Things I Enjoy

I love stickers, except puffy. I subscribed to Stickii and would by all the packs. They are awesome stickers that are non kiddie, non alpha, great for planners. I highly recommend them. Check them out at this Stickii Link

I do enjoy stamped images that I can color in and add to my journals.

I do like Kawaii stationery but I am not picky about it. So if you are in a Kawaii swap that is particular don't worry about what you send to me. I am okay with receiving Diaso, American Kawaii, and cheap Sanrio.

Disney characters, especially Minnie and Mickey. Oh and Stitch.

Postcards - No preferences.

RAK

Had a bad day, week, month? Running low on note cards, stationery but want to keep swapping? Message me if you would like a RAK (Random Act of Kindness) and I will see what can be done.

Babaswork

No Thank you, please

Please as a side note, I do not wish to receive anything religious. I am not religious but respect all religions and the people who practice them.

Sadly, candy treats I cannot have. I am on a special diet from my physician.

Please no clothing or house hold items.

I really don't care for glitter.
Please Note: A tiny amount well stuck to the paper such as on a card or sticker is fine.

I don't care for confetti or sequins.

I personally don't use temporary tattoos so they just get passed along.

I personally don't use puffy stickers as they are don't match my aesthetic for journals and so I just pass them along.

I personally don't use classroom reward stickers but I do pass them along to a few teachers that love them.

Comment: That place seems like a good one to try out - I do hope you feel closure there, for me it was like the 5 stages of grief at first. Coming out on the other side, I like it over here, where things finally make sense and I don't beat myself up over and over for "why am I like this" moments - I gotta do things my way, which might mean making accommodations - right now trying to get that moving for the new building at work we are moving to maybe next year.
Response: I am finding myself going a bit easier on myself and thinking things from a better perspective for me. Less critical

Comment: I know a thing [or 3!] about procrastination...! hehe :P Did you take those computer based tests when you did it? I liked some of them, they were fun. I am nor a DR but that one diagnosis you got before... disagree with that one. I am glad that it's no longer there and you are not dealing with that.
Response: Yeah, I find them stressful though.

Comment: I am always ALWAYS behind so please don't worry on my account!! XD Now that I am catching up more on your letters, SO glad they removed that other term from your chart - that one did not seem right to me and I am glad you found a caring doctor and could advocate. It is so so hard for me personally to find quality care these days.
Response: Finding a doctor is a pain then finding one that believes you is even more fun though these newer online Zoom appointment places are nice. I have found it easier to find one that is more tailored to my specific needs.

Comment: A [late] welcome to the club - the ND club - or as I call it but others do not like it sometimes - the "neurospicy" club ;) it's chaos here but those who get it, get it. <3 I find that there are meds that do help with the symptoms that stem from or coordinate with being ND - and they help alleviate some of the mental health challenges that come with the diagnoses. I def would get more opinions and advocate for some other options in that space if you want to try different ones - catching up on your letters and I do see things got better there] <3
Response: I love the term neurospicy. It definitely makes sense some days haha.

Response: It is so fun to dress up for Disneyland trips!
