Hello Forum!
After a long day stamping I love to pull up a chair and read the latest stamp chat online, sometimes adding my two cents, so I was delighted to discover this forum.
To briefly introduce myself, I'm a retired industrial electrician enjoying the sunshine of Florida after a lifetime in Michigan. After our move, I took a brief hiatus from collecting - everything was packed away awaiting a stamp den. I'm now back putzing on my stamps and loving it!
When I was 7, my dad gave me a shoebox full of stamps and I was hooked. I collected worldwide for many years until the mid 90s when I began to narrow the scope of my collection. I'm now down to mainly specializing in Ireland and also puttering with a few other collections. I'm an APS member and a life member of the Eire Philatelic Assn, and I also found an active local club which is quite lively.
My other hobbies include spoiling my two mini schnauzers, riding my bike 5-10 miles a day if possible, cooking (which is why I need to ride the bike!), embroidery, reading, gardening, and geeky stuff like science museums. My hubby is a computer buff and an all around super nice guy.
Looking forward to making some new friends! Happy stampin'!
