i'm a shy housewife (not a very good one! haha) with 10 grandchildren. my husband is a data engineer. i love scrapping, altered books, rubber stamping (new at this), beading, and many other crafts. i make interactive journals for children, which i sell or give away. i want to instill a love of reading and journaling in children! i love using the internet to find unusual items for my books. i also love the "free stuff from the internet" book to find interesting things and ideas. my husband and i love boating and try to go out at least twice a month. we also have two manx cats who are bizzarre to say the least. i'm not sure i'm doing this correctly, so would love input. thanks, net
