NOTE: If I owe you a swap or I am late on a rating it is because I was hospitalized very recently, and numerous Tests were done and it was confirmed that on top of all my other Medical problems that I do have, it was confirmed that I also do have Parkinson's Disease, Although it was caught early and I am being controlled by Medications.

Although, it took the hospital staff awhile to get my Pain Medications that I do take on a regular basis for severe chronic Pain Syndrome due to Fibromyalgia, Rheumatoid Arthitis, Crohn's Disease and the list goes on and on to get my Pain Medications straightened out.

I love Postcards (unwritten on and in an envelope), Stickers, Winnie-The-Pooh/and Friends(Tigger, Piglet, Eeyore etc), Tinkerbell, Anything Disney, Snoopy, Anything with Cats on it, Stationary Sets, Stationary, Stickles brand in Diamond, Gel Pens (Cool Colors), Glitter Glue Pens, Glitter Pens, Notecards, Suzy Toronto stuff,Twilight (New Moon and all that), Counted Cross-Stitch Linen or other fabric, magnets, keychains,Fairy's, Angels, Wooden Mounted Rubber Stamps, Embossing Powders, Scrapbooking stuff, Un-Used Forever Stamps, Diddl, Wal-Mart/Target/Michaels and Jo-Ann's Fabric and Crafts Gift cards, Yankee Tarts & Candles, Suzy Zoo,Colored Envelopes, Cookbooks, Craft Magazines (Cross-Stitch, Paper/Card making, and Other Crafts also) and Food Magazines, Goosberry Patch Cookbooks, Beads, Shot Glasses, New York Giants, I love the color Purple, Bath and body works items, Anything with Wolf's on it, Butterflies, Daisy's, Rainbows and Pansie's and many other flowers and much, much more! I LOVE anything with Butterflies on it such as stickers, notecards, stationary sets, I also love the Flower Daisy's as well as to love Rainbows. I lost a very, very good friend to Breast Cancer in 2007 on my Parents 50th wedding anniversary, and before my surgery for Crohn's Disease she said the following to me "Lori, think of us in a field of daisy's with Rainbows and Butterflies chasing us". This is how I became to love Daisy's, Rainbows and especially Butterflies. I like Butterfly Stickers, Notecards with butterflies, Stationary with Butterflies and I think you get the idea!! :=)

Enya, Yanni, Celine Dion, Abba, Elton John and many more

Puzzle Books, Word Search books, Danielle Steele, Nicholas Sparks, Nora Roberts, Robin Cook, I also love all different kinds of Craft books from Making Cards to Cross-Stitch to many others, Cooking Books and much, much more.

Top Gun, Officer and a Gentleman, Tangled, Anything Disney, Monsters, Inc., Toy Story (All of them), Narnia, Notebook and Dear John both by Nicholas Sparks films as well. I like a vast variety of films and books as you can see so rule of thumb would be "Anything Goes"!! With the exception of Nudity and Gross bloody stuff as that kind of stuff I really do not like at all.

Counted Cross-Stitch, Scrapbooking, Paper Crafts, Making my own Greeting Cards and Envelopes and always needing different pretty papers to do so, and so much, much more. Did I mention that I really could use some Stationary Set(s)!! I cross-stitch on evenweave Linen unless it definitely says that it is for Aida Fabric and then I will use Salamn Cloth which is very similar to Aida Fabric but it does not look or feel like Aida fabric and instead it looks and feels like Linen and no one will be able to tell the difference even up front close up except for yourself!! And, it is very, very affordable I think I paid about $8.00 for either half a yard or so. Also, be sure to check this website out as this is where I do all of my Cross-Stitch Shopping now and Peggy and Rick (Owners) think that is great as to what JoAnne Nantz did to me which was to ban me from coming into her store or onto the Premises and I was welcomed by both Peggy and Rick with open arms and Peggy told me that I am not the first customer of Nantz's to come to her and wants to know why she is getting all of Nantz's customers and I tell Peggy it is your Personality and how you present things as Nantz started putting things on hold for me I DID NOT ask her to do so And then all of the sudden one day Nantz decided she could no longer do it and apparently she says she sent me an E-Mail stating that I was not to call her, Not to come on her Property and she did not even give me the chance to pick my things up as she put it out for people to purchase and told me it was gone all of it was gone. She will not deal with any company that does not either have a E-Mail address or a toll free number as she told me it is too expensive for her otherwise. She also does not go to the huge Cross-Stitch Convention in February to see and purchase all the new patterns, fabric and more stuff!! Rick and Peggy have no idea how she runs a business and especially when she is closed from Sunday thru Wednesday's as she claims she needs the time to do her framing.......yeah, right.....LOL!! The website you need to check out is www.craftyframer.com You will keep on going back there as there is new stuff uploaded on a daily basis and she will do her best to get in whatever it is that you are looking for. She has now since I started shopping there created a "Lori's Wish List" and a "Lori's Want List". Peggy works with my checkbook and not the other way around

I also love to write to my many Pen Friends/Pals and cannot turn anyone down either. I love Pen Palling and all of my Dear Friends as they not only mean so very much to me but they also do keep me "grounded" if you know what I mean. They are the best friends that I do have and some may live very far away from me such as England and I am in Florida, United States of America but one lady named Pol (Short for Paula) and I have been writing and typing and sending packages to each other for at least more than 6-years now and we met on a Postcard Trading Mailing List which now is still there but not as big as our Postcard List is as she asked me if I would like to be Co-Owner with her on her Groups and I said sure as I wanted something to keep me busy and this was the perfect opportunity for me given to me by my "Sister". Pol (only her close friends now are allowed to call her that) is much closer to me than any of my own Sister's which is very sad to say the least!! Pol makes up for that missing link(s) in Spades. She is always there when I need her and visa versa. She is closer to me than my own sisters are and I do consider Pol to be a "Sister" to me as she does to me!

I am always looking for new Pen Friends/Pals and swappers of friendship books, friendship sheets, slams, crams, Deco's etc. As well as the fact that I am also always looking for new long letter pals and such!! :-)
