It's not about worrying about what's down the road, or where you will end up, it's about enjoying where you are right now.

Sugar Addictions:
Marzipan! But otherwise...more of a salty snacker

Things I collect or Adore:

1. Homemade Gifts - I am overly sentimental and just adore things that are homemade, so if you are crafty, or bake, or take photos, or make mix Cd's, or write, or make jewelry or...whatever, I'd be touched to have the gift of your time. I also do not have young children of my own, so if you have kids who like to draw or make crafts, I would love that!

2. Christmas - Anything and everything that celebrates both the spiritual and secular components of Christmas. I love snowflakes and pictures of red Cardinals in the snow!

3. Other Cultures - I am very open minded and would love it if y'all want to share something from your faith or culture. I work at a University and like to have things in my office that celebrate various cultural traditions.

4. Used Audio Books - I commute 90 minutes each way to work and listen to books on CD to pass the time. Since I listen to these once and pass them on, I don't care if they are beat up. If you are out yard saleing or thrift storing and see them for 50 cents or so, I would love it if you sent me one!

5. The Philadelphia Soul Arena Football Team and Jon Bon Jovi!!! (I know the Soul is gone, but I still want to collect memories of this fun time.)

6. Squished Pennies from those machines at tourist attractions.

7. Old Wheat Pennies

8. Old Family Recipes especially with explanations of who made it and why it is special to your family.

9. Beach glass - especially blue!

10. Lucy from the Peanuts comic strips, especially in her little Psychiatric Help 5 cents booth.

11. Pug Dogs

12. Niagara Falls

13. Keith Urban *giggles wildly*

14. Funky bandanas and scarves to wear while riding in my new convertible. Woooohoooo!

15. Books (all kinds, but especially Sherrilyn Kenyon, Charlaine Harris, Maya Angelou, Nora Roberts, Mysteries, Vampire Novels, & travel picture books)

16. Gardening Supplies (seeds harvested from your garden would be way cool!)

17. Recipe Books (or copies of your favorite recipes would rock!)

18. Purple Elephants

19. Rubber Ducks

20. Postcards or Photos from your neck of the woods

21. Bits of interesting cloth for old fashioned patchwork quilts I make.

22. Bucky & Satchel from "Get Fuzzy"

23. Interesting Bookmarks

24. Snail Mail supplies

25. Anything pertaining to Ireland, Irish/Celtic Culture

26. Harry Potter (I love Luna Lovegood and I believe in Nargles!)

27. EDWARD CULLEN & anything Twilight related!

28. Sookie Stackhouse & anything True Blood related

29. Dark Hunter novels, especially "The Simi" !!!

Other things about Me:

I have listed my "likes" above as requested, but I mostly like the "attention and connection" of being part of this group, so the postcards, cards and notes are more than enough for me!!!

I could continue on and make a list of things a mile long that would please me, but I'll end by saying that I am not picky and will appreciate whatever you are willing to share.

I am a 42-year-old Psychologist/College Professor, married to Rich (TripletA) and we are the proud parents of two naughty cats (Piper & Phoebe). We also have outdoor critters and our back yard is a certified wildlife habitat. I love to cook, garden, enter snailmail contests and read.

Thank you advance for everything you do to pass the joy and peace my way. Your time and efforts will be appreciated. Love y'all bunches!

Vickie
