    Cool Hello from the miserable sunshine state!

    What's going on everyone?

    Very new to scrapping (just a few months now) and learning little by little as I go. I've been creeping on this forum for the past couple of weeks soaking in what I can from you guys so I figured joining would be the right thing to do. Maybe I can share a worthy find or some random tips of my own after I gain some more experience. Right now it's been a part time thing, although I really wish I could make it a main bread and butter deal for my family and I. I can't believe how addicting it's been. Even pretty therapeutic at times. Right now I manage a storage facility, which is what got me hooked originally. People toss out some pretty cool/valuable things sometimes, it amazes me. After a while it became too hard for me to ignore all that profit piling up in our dumpsters. One day I just dug in, and here I am.

    Hope to get to know more of you and have some good conversation. Thanks guys.
