About Me

I am a happily married forty-six year old mother of three girls (one 16 year old and 10 year old identical twins).

To wander through museums, visit historic sites, even spend time at old cemeteries, has always been a favourite pastime of mine. To exam the past gives one great opportunity to redirect the future.

I am an avid reader. Amongst my favourite books are: "Wuthering Heights" by Emily Bronte, "Uncle Tom's Cabin" by Harriet Beecher Stowe and "The Picture of Dorian Gray" by Oscar Wilde. When surrounded by books, I am most content.

I am fascinated with the written word, cannot abide clutter, and love to run. Baking and ironing are great stress relievers for me. Coffee and stationery are my two addictions.

Other Likes Include: Owls, earthy colours, sunflowers and daffodils

PLEASE NOTE: I always complete and send swaps in a timely manner. If you have not received something from me, please let me know immediately.

Comment: Actually I was pretty psyched to receive these bookmars - they're kinda cool! I'm especially interested in the one on "The Cellist of Sarejevo" - I'd love to read this book! Thanks for the informative little notes, too, I appreciate them! Also like the sunflower paper, pretty stamp and stickers on the envie. Great swap, thank you!
Response: I am so glad you enjoyed the bookmarks and would definitely encourage you to read "The Cellist of Sarajevo". It really leaves you thinking about the harsh realities of war.
