About Me

Nancy here or rather “Nan” as I prefer. I am a wife, teacher and mom of 3 fur babies. I am 35 years old and love love love the art of snail mail.

My hobbies include:

  • gardening

  • hand lettering

  • postcrossing

  • hiking

  • fishing (fresh & salt water)

  • camping with my husband and dogs

  • sending happy mail

  • painting and drawing with mixed media

  • vlogger

  • photography

  • cooking (send me a family recipe of yours)

  • loom knitting

I am a P.E. and dance teacher for pre-k - 5th grade and it is the most gratifying job I could have!! Scented stamp pads and reward stickers always appreciated.

My husband and I try our best to live a farm to fork lifestyle as much as we can in an organic way. We compost, can, pickle & dehydrate all things from our garden so truly nothing goes to waste! This life did not happen overnight but one small step at a time in the right direction. REDUCE, REUSE, RECYCLE

We have 3 dogs: Blanche (15 yr old Boston Terrier) Rose (8 yr old Pomeranian) & Sophia (4 yr old hound/ lab mix) our “golden girls”

Start with using glass jars and stainless steel straws for your water both can be ordered online.

Comment: Thank you for the adorable letter and the stickers! I had a lot of fun reading it. I'm a bit curious about the enrichment teacher thing -- I'm a nontraditional teacher about to embark on finishing my bachelor's, and I am planning on proposing a non-credit high school level philosophy class at an NPO for formerly incarcerated individuals as my capstone project. I'm not sure if that counts as enrichment, but they are otherwise only taught GED classes and vocational skills. Anyway, sorry for my life story lol. Thanks again!
