    hello everyone

    My name is Joe. I am a part-time scrapper with a full-time job from South Jersey (near Atlantic City). I began scrapping in early October 2012 to supplement my family's income since my wife was laid off over two yeara ago and exhausted her unemployment benefits. We have two children - a boy 2 y/o and a girl 6 mo. This summer our economic situation forced us to move in with my in-laws. Working hard to scrap myself out of this situation!!!
