About Me

Happy Greetings!

I'm a neurodivergent historian, teacher, and former Yinzer living in Rochester, NY. I love any and all surprises, going on adventures with my spunky 8-year-old, hanging with my hubs, playing games (cards or board games), doing embroidery, rollerblading, camping, and cuddling with my cat.

*UPDATE-mail seems to be moving slowly in my area. If you haven't received an item from me, please feel free to send me a message!

I'm new to swap-bot, but I send items promptly- hopefully a day after receiving my partner assignment. Don't hesitate to reach out if you don't get something immediately or if you're wondering about your item. I'll always resend a swap if you feel that yours got lost in the mail!

Current Wish List Item: I'm trying to collect used stamps from the Carnival Nights series for my first junk journal. I adore old-fashioned amusement parks and carnivals and thought it would be a nice theme.

Favorite Crafts: I'm in a fiber arts kick at the moment. Currently, I'm working on a ghost camping cross-stitch pattern by The Flossy Fox Shop (https://www.etsy.com/shop/FlossyFoxShop)

I'm also working on a design for a textured embroidery piece.

I love to knit, but I'm terrible at it! My cat, Captain (Lord of the Seven Sills) enjoys the habit more, I think!
