Scrollcrazy Posted February 23, 2016 Report Posted February 23, 2016 Hi all. This is a wonderful site. I just recently got back into scrolling after about 10 years. Loved it then, love it more now! My precious husband built me a wood shop and him and my 3 beautiful daughters stocked it with tools I could only imagine in my dreams. I am on disability with osteo and rheumatoid arthritis so, I have to pace myself. But, it's ok! I now have a place to go and be creative again. Even if it's just sitting in my shop and admiring all my pretty tools. It's very meditative and helps when the pain keeps me from scrolling. Thanks for this site!

Ladies are a bit out numbered here so its good to have some female company, though I must admit the guys are a laugh a minute sometimes. So put your feet up and enjoy the fun.

Jim McDonald Posted February 24, 2016 Report Posted February 24, 2016 I use my sawing as therapy and to let the day "fade away". It is very good for my concentration and blocking out everything around me. There is no bad day sawing--just days that are too short. Scrollcrazy and Phantom Scroller 2 Quote

heppnerguy Posted March 12, 2016 Report Posted March 12, 2016 Welcome to THE VILLAGE. We all are glad you have landed here and hope you find it a friendly place to hang out. My wife also has RA and so I can understand how difficult it is to do almost anything. I hope scrolling is a good medium for you. I am sure you probably have to be careful how long of a time you can scroll but what ever time you have with it is good time. I hope you log on often and get to know everyone here as it is a really great group of people here. Dick heppnerguy Scrollcrazy 1 Quote
Ninuninu Posted March 27, 2016 Report Posted March 27, 2016 Hi Becky, welcome to the village. I have to agree 100% with you - very meditative and relaxing. Happy scrolling or tool gazing! Tony Quote
