I'm celebrating 11 years with swap-bot! Woohoo!

I have a snail mail group on Facebook called Snail Mail Joy. We have Swaps/Wishes/Tags/Wacky Wednesday/RAKS/Giveaways and more! (link at the top of my profile)

Looking for good swappers who enjoy snail mail. If you want to join, please send me a message via swap-bot letting me know you have requested to join. I know most of you by your swap-bot name, so I may not recognize your first/last name on Facebook.

If you have low ratings or you're listed on a flaker list on swap-bot or a blacklist on Facebook don't ask to join. I research before I accept any new members!

I love snail mail! I'm known as @grammypammy here! I've been in swapping groups since 2008. I follow through with all my swaps and I don't send junk. I've never been listed on a bad swappers list.

I run 2 groups on Swap-bot they are:

RAKS ONLY USA

Snailed It

I also like to be active in groups that I've joined.

I also run a snail mail Facebook group, find the link at the top of my Profile.

I send out a lot of snail mail each month!

I also recycle a lot of my swap stuff and if I can't use it in a craft or for personal use, I will send it to another partner. I don't want to offend anyone, but I know that most swappers do this, and I don't mind when it happens to me.

I'm married and have 4 adult children and 3 grandchildren. My husband retired from the military in 2019 and I'm a retired teacher, but we are busy even in our retirement years.

My furbabies are a male Shih-Tzu mix named Jasper and 2 guinea pigs names Homer & Marge.

I'm a Christian and active in my church. I volunteer in our Kid's Church. My husband and I are both active in church ministries and my husband has a street ministry where he goes and feeds the homeless once a week and we also supply clothing and sleeping bags to those in need.

I also take care of the church ministry for the shut-ins and send them Faith Happy Mail each month. When a member in the church needs encouragement of any kind for any reason, one of the pastors will contact me with their address and I'll send Faith Happy Mail to them. I love to encourage others!

My all time Favorite Cartoon is The Flintstones. The first episode was aired on the day I was born and I didn't find that out until I was older but I had always loved the show so I thought that was pretty cool to find out.

I also like: The Jetsons, Scooby-Doo, Smurfs, Belle, Hello Kitty, and most Disney characters.

I enjoy watching musicals, comedies, romantic comedies, drama. I watch OP Live, Cops, Law & Order SVU, CSI, NCIS, Unsolved Mysteries, Forensic Files and all 2 Chicago shows. I also enjoy watching Flea Market Flip, Baking/Cooking Competitions, Tiny House shows, Buying Houses/Homes in various states/countries.

I enjoy reading and read mostly Christian Fiction. I also like devotionals or inspirational stories. I have found that I also like listening to faith based podcasts.

I like to play games on my iPad. My current favorite one is Happy Color, it's so relaxing! I enjoy strategy or brain working games, and time management games.

I also love books that are easy crossword puzzles, Sudoku, word search and fill-it-in puzzles.

I love paper crafts like ATC's, handmade envelope making, mini pocket letters, making bookmarks, altered paper clips/binder clips, card making. I love to learn new types of crafts too, but I don't usually try to create them if there are too many steps because for some reason, they never turn out the same as the picture.

There's not too many things I don't like to receive in my swaps. But I definitely don't like to receive these: (if I receive one of my dislikes in an RAK or Happy Mail I won't rate down but neither will I give a heart and I love to give a heart to most every swap I get).
