    My name is Squirrely, yes in real life too since I was a lil one. I'm rather ditzy, trip over my own feet and am all over the place = Squirrely. But I do love scrapping, and have BIG plans for an art journal for 2017, so I was told this was the place to be. :) And I'm happy I am. Thank you Laura for getting the door unlocked for me!!

    Oh, and I have 3 grown kids, 4 grand ones and 2 fur ones. You'll meet them all soon enough. :)

    Aww, that is a cute name! Welcome Squirrely! No feet needed here (so worries about tripping) ... just typing fingers and scrapping hands!!! ;) Looking forward to meeting your family virtually through your pages and getting to know you better. Also can't wait to see what you do with your 2017 Art Journal!

    I left in 92 as well Christa, but I came back in 2010. When the grands started coming I came-a-running ;).

    And thank you everyone for the very warm welcome!

    Welcome!! I'm pretty klutzy too! It's great that no walking is required here. I love that you moved back when the grands started coming. I look forward to seeing your gallery start to fill up!
