    Greetings from the Garden State

    Hello,

    My name is Ed and I hail from New Jersey. I have been lurking on this site for a few weeks and figured it was time to say hi.
    I work as a firefighter/emt and I am going to school to become a paramedic so I have little free time. I used to scrap for extra money and as a hobby but I just became a dad to twin girls so any scrap money is now formula/diaper money



    I usually scrap computer parts and after reading from this site I see I was not getting the most for my money. I look forward to chatting with all of you and I wish you all a safe and happy 4th of July!!!!

    Welcome to the forum. Congrats on the girls, just wait to see how your life changes when they start talking. LOL I had one daughter and it hasn't slowed down in 30+ years. Mike.

    Welcome from a sandbar off the coast of NC, Ed! As the others said, congrats on the girls!

    Now..could you kindly take back your fellow Jersey folks who've invaded my sandbar for the summer?
