Hunbun

I appreciate the thoughtfulness when swap partners add extras, but I'm almost out of crafting storage space!

A few things about me: (1/2026)

*FUCK ICE * 52yo, female, married w/ 4 kids (2 grownups, 2 college students) * she/her * LBGTQ ally 🏳️‍🌈🌈 * INFJ * Enneagram type 6 * atheist * I cook several hours a day--all gluten-free and vegan * constantly reading, don’t leave home without my Kindle or a book. I read 10-14 books/month * unrepentant potty mouth * I love coffee all day and white wine at night * NPR is my jam * I don't really listen to music often; my brain works in words. I also don't watch movies often, maybe once or twice a year. My attention span just doesn't allow me to. TV shows (on Netflix, Hulu, etc., we don't have an actual provider) work better, but I would much rather be reading than watching. * I like to write and receive long, newsy letters, though I warn that I'm not terribly efficient at time management so I might not write for a month then three times the following month. I'm full of surprises that way! * Mail art delights me. #NoPlainEnvelopes * Addicted to experiments with Gelli Plate transfers

LIKES:
