Hi there! I'm Robin. It's nice to meet you.

I haven't been active in about 5 years! So much has changed since I was last on Swap Bot.

I am married, and we have a 2 year old son. He is very active and keeps me on my toes.

I work from home. It can get very lonely, which is why I thought I'd come back to Swap Bot.

If I mark it sent, that means it was put in the Outgoing Mail Slot in our bank of mailboxes that day. I may mark sent on a Sunday, but it won't get picked up until Monday.

Please, please, please contact me if you don't receive something.

COMMUNICATION IS KEY! If you are going to be late - let me know! And be honest about it from the first message. If you are crazy swamped at work, everyone in your house came down with the flu, your cousin's best friends uncle got a flat tire and you had to go help, so you couldn't possibly mail your swap on time - let me know!

I've been waiting 15 business days before reaching out to check on a swap that hasn't been rated or received. I'm not counting Saturdays and Sundays because I've seen a lot of you mentioning that you don't get postal service on Saturdays anymore.

I solemnly swear that I will rate all swaps! 1, 3, or 5 - you will be rated. And I tend to be very free giving with the hearts! If there is the unfortunate necessity of needing to rate a 1 or 3, I will contact you before rating. I will always write a comment with my rating as well.

I used to love reading books. I could read 2 - 3 books (or more!) in a week. However, in 2017 I was in the hospital on life support. Ever since then, I have had a really hard time concentrating long enough to read more than 20 or 30 pages at a time. I don't know if the hospital stay is the reason I can't concentrate, but that's when I kind of slowed down with reading.

I like to read series. I want to be with the characters longer! But. . . some series just drag on forever and it feels like most of the books are "filler" books. So I say anything from 3 - 6 books is a good series. Anything longer than that, and I find the quality suffers.

Anything that isn't toddler music? Haha!

Taylor Swift, Kelsea Ballerini, Alexandra Kay, Ben Platt, Gracie Abrams.

Oh gosh. I love reality TV. Even though I know it is FAR from the truth. Definitely like The Bachelor, The Bachelorette, and Bachelor in Paradise. I have gotten Dan into it as well. He acts like he isn't, but he gets upset if I watch it without him!

Currently binge watching -

The Resident

911 Lonestar

I saw a partner who had an ABC's of what she liked, so here goes ! I'll keep filling it out. . . It's strangely hard to list 26 things that you like on command!

B - BLUE (any shade), beaches

C - Coffee

D - dogs, daisies

E - Elephants. They're my favorite!

F- flowers

G - green (dark green)

Q -

R - reading - tell me about the latest book or article you just read, rainbows

S - Snail Mail - we all do!!, Socks, Stationery, Stickers, Snowmen! - I just started collecting them last year.

T - traveling

U - unicorns - more realistic than cartoonist. My mom collected unicorns, so they hold a special meaning to me

V -

W - winter scenes - I don't like ACTUAL winter because it's so cold. But I LOVE how picturesque fresh fallen snow is. And frost covered trees.

X - X-Files

Y -

Z - I couldn't think of anything that started with Z. BUT I do have an affinity for people who have the letter Z, especially a double Z, in their name.

I would love to travel more! Anything related to travel, foreign countries, maps, etc.
