mmbstaley Posted January 4 Posted January 4 Hey everyone! I'm Melinda - known as mmbstaley everywhere online - yeah, that name dates WAY back to my first years on the internet and I've never changed it because no one would recognize me if I did that 😅 Add me to the list of I've been scrapping since my oldest kid was a baby and the paper scrapbooks are a bit cringy to look at design-wise now but they hold lots of special memories. Once I discovered scrapbooking at the craft fair in 1996 there was no turning back and while I still might dabble in other hobbies for a while I always return to recording my memories on a scrapbook page. I moved to digital scrapping after we got our first digital camera. I loved the ease of altering things to be just what I wanted and ctrl+z to undo and redo things until I got them just right. Plus after making multiple copies of the paper scrapbooks for grandparents for years I embrace the 'scrap it once, print it multiple times' ease now. I do miss making physical things at times though as I don't do it enough now. I'm currently located in the Richmond VA area where everyone is freaking out about the possibility of snow and ice to come later this weekend. We haven't had a decent winter storm in a few years, so I'm not minding the thought of it much other than the fact that I have to take my daughter to work Monday morning and well they have very little snow equipment and no one knows how to drive in the stuff around here. We used to live in Colorado where the mention of 3-4" of snow only elicits a yawn 😂 I guess we will see if the weather forecasts are anywhere near close to right in a couple of days!  1
norton94 Posted January 4 Posted January 4 So great to see you here Melinda! Good luck with the weather! Much of dealing with it is what others around you can tolerate with infrastructure/services and practice. I live in Iowa, so we get practice, but even an inch can bring some places to a stop.
