I am 41 and I live in VA with my hubby and daughter. They are my world! The best part of my life is being a mom! When your gone no one will remember what kind of car you drove or your desinger purses but my daughter will remember that she had a mom that loved her! I am truly blessed to have the wonderful family and friends that I have!

I add and delete little things on my profile depending on my mood. I do have everything in categories so you can read only what you want/need to.

I would describe myself as a fun and easy going person. I have a wicked and sometimes sarcastic sense of humor. I love dark things, rock music, and going to bars to see live bands. I love "girls night out" with my friends. I enjoy all different forms of art. I love to go to museums, plays, theater, etc. I also love to create my own art/crafts. I enjoy making things, it makes me happy (:

SPOILER ALERT: I post many pics of my swaps on flickr so if you want to be surprised you may not want to look at my flickr pics until you receive your swap.

I promise to rate fairly and promptly. If you don't receive a swap from me please pm me before rating as I do send out all of my swaps.I in return will give my fellow swappers the same courtesy.

I have chatted and swapped with many, many amazing, talented, and kind hearted people on sb. I hope to continue swapping with my sb friends and to make many more friends on here.

MY LIKES

These likes are only to give you a feel for the types of things that I like. I don't want anyone that reads my profile to feel stressed about swapping with me. I can't stress enough that what I have written on here is just meant as a guide to help you get to know me a little more, not as a list of things that I expect in any swap. For me this site is a way for me to swap with other talented artists! I think that we ALL have an artist inside and I appreciate everything that I receive from you!

Reading, gardening, concerts, going to movies, wine tastings, going out with my friends, board games, wii, crafts, family time.

MY DISLIKES

I really don't have a lot of dislikes. I am not picky and I like to try new things. If you put effort in to your swap then I will like it.

A major dislike is a flaker! If you don't plan on sending then don't join the swap. I don't like it when people post pics of someone's art only for the purpose of trashing it. I don't like bullies.
