39 years old, married, and mother to a fabulous 16-year-old child (Nova).

I am into mail art, BTS, hooping, easy gardening, geeky stuffs.

I have 3 cats, 2 Siamese mixes (Mini & Koko) and a tortie (Princess Kitten Pepper Pinky Potts aka Pepper). Two dogs, both rescues, brindled hounds-of-some-sort (Merlin & Misty).

All of the above keeps my life busy. Checking the mailbox is the highlight of my day (Mon.-Sat.)

I prefer heavy alternative music, genuine lyrics, music that transports me to another part of the world...

SCENTS:

I adore patchouli, sandalwood, beachy, lilies, pomegranate, berries, cinnamon, rain...

TASTE: I'm not a foodie, but I do like healthy food.

I have switched from coffee to tea and am so happy i did!

TEA FAVES: lapsang souchong, herbal, dandelion, red, black, lady grey, rooibos, yerba mate, berry, flower, full-leaf, loose. I prefer organic teas and without "natural flavors". Celestial Seasonings' Morning Thunder is my current fave every day tea.

That being said, I am always up for trying new teas!

ZINES

I collect & make zines and would love to receive more! Would love one made by YOU, too!

• eights (in any form, it's my favorite number)
• silhouettes
• trees

My favorite number is 8. I live my life by it. If two roads diverged in the wood and one marker said "Path 2" and another marker said "Path 8", I would take 8 every time. No questions asked, even if it looked spookier or was full of spiderwebs...

I'm a bit obsessive about it really, sometimes, some would say. But it is a symbol (infinity) that I put my faith into and I follow it when it comes in front of my path.

I would rather pay $8 for something than $6.97.

I put :28 mins on the microwave instead of :30.

I pay $20.80 to fill my tank instead of $20.00.

Ok, you get the point - I'm done now...
