If you'd like to get to know me a bit...

I’ve moved around a lot & have lived in Austin, Boston, New York City, Los Angeles & Istanbul, but now I call Houston home. I've worked in book publishing, as an ESL teacher & now do marketing for a university. I’m married, no kids but am a dog mom. I’ve worked in dog rescue & am kind of obsessed with dogs and animals in general! I'm a vegetarian and love all animals, including farm animals.

I LOVE Fall, Halloween and Christmas! Anything goes for Halloween including dark and scary and creepy!

I love to travel and explore nature & plan excursions with my little terrier mix dog, Murphy Brown. I get to visit New England a lot with my husband for his work, so we plan as many excursions as we can.

Swapping has been SO MUCH FUN to see all the beauty in details in the mail I get. And planning and sending swaps has been such a great creative outlet too!

PLEASE NOTE: I originally joined swapbot as @dabble in the aughts but am not able to login to that account. I’ve put in 2 help tickets requesting the accounts be merged but haven’t heard anything. The 2 users I owed swaps to aren’t currently active. Swapping is one of my favorite things, and I take my status on swapbot seriously. My recent history is reflective of my commitment to the community. ❤️📫💌

  • LOVE washi

  • Dogs, terriers

  • Black cats

  • Flowers, plants, cactus, trees

  • Birds, owls, raccoons, opossums, woodland creatures like deer & foxes

  • Camping, campfires, forest, pine cones, cabins

ARTS & CRAFTS

  • I've enjoyed exploring drawing, mixed media, collage, painting, lino cuts, stamping & photography

While I don’t dislike religion, I’m not religious so those items aren’t for me.

I LOVE having the opportunity to be creative and giving & doing swaps! I get just as much enjoyment if not more out of planning, preparing and sending swaps, although a mailbox full of happy mail is a pretty joyful thing! :)

Comment: *squee* I love the pancake art on the envelope and all of carefully chosen pancake themed items. This is one of the most thoughtfully packed happy mail I have received! Makes me want to have some pancakes right now! I just had some great ones at a NY themed place called Murray's Tavern here in Austin - Boxty potato pancakes with Clotted Cream and Seasonal Fruit Jam and they are the best pancakes I have ever had in my life!

Comment: Wow, It's been a minute since we've swapped Heather and miss that too! How was your Christmas? I'm sure amazing! It was here! Especially spending time with my grandkids. But at the same time, I'm sort of glad Christmas is over. Anyway, TYSM for the Joyful greetings Bulbs card, the Pipstickers, and for the 6 vintage stamps! I absolutely love what you sent! Not to mention your very nice note in the card! However did you find the "Katie Daisy" Christmas cards? I've never seen them before. Just like a lot other cards I've gotten and have never seen before. When I do internet search for different Christmas cards, I find not much of anything, bummer! Well, I wish you a Happy New Year for 2025! I hope it starts out wonderfully for you!
Response: I discovered Katie Daisy on Instagram. I follow various artists and people who are in the snail mail community. Many of the artists have shops on Etsy. Some are affordable or affordable in sets. It depends. Happy New Year!

Comment: Thank you for the cute card and the lovey note. I hope you had fun with your Christmas cookie cookbook. My little Jack-a-bees can be quite vocal. Bella likes to sing and whine especially when someone closes the bathroom door. Bunky likes to go stick his head out the dog door and bark for a few minutes to tell everyone dinner is done. They crack me up daily. Happy Holidays

Hi Heather. Thank you for mentioning your previous account @dabble in your Profile here. I know it's difficult to get accounts merged on SB these days, but hopefully you'll get assistance with that soon.

In the meantime, you probably should update your mention of that account and note correctly that you owe 10 people, as the swap had 10 partners. Only 2 rated you a 1 with no ratings from the other 8. @marinda was one who gave you a 1 and she is active still. You could arrange to clear that 1 up with her and she can still update your rating on the other account when she receives your swap. If the host of that swap is still active, she can give you the info for other 8 partners and you can see if they're still active.

Then you can make notations in your Profile of what you're doing to proactively complete that swap with your other partners. I hope this is helpful. Hopefully you can get your accounts merged soon.

@takehimaway Hand lettering books got my attention! I'm trying to catch up on swaps after an insane month. Once I catch up, I'd like to do that. Thanks!
