O My Gosh I am Loving Lightroom!
This is just a gas! I am working my way through Scott Kelby's book, and having so much fun with my old photos.
I haven't been scrapping much because I have been scanning a lot of old photos and playing with Lightroom. I know I still have a lot to learn about PSE, too, and the Kelby book on that is next on my list, but for now, all I can say is: I am amazed at what Lightroom can do. Some old scanned photos that I thought were beyond hope are coming to life. I am probably still quite heavy-handed and clumsy in my use of LR adjustments, but I am having a great time with it and still learning. I wasn't sure if LR would be as useful on scanned photos as on digital photos, but it seems to be. AND, I have finally gotten all my photos organized on my computer! I just posted a page about how much I love Lightroom here.

I love your page by the way!
 And I couldn't agree more! I am happy to hear you are finding LR useful for scanned old photos - I have not scanned too many yet but plan to and it will be fun to play around with them a bit.

Slightly green with envy regarding your organization of your photos.... time, time, time.

Lynn, check out all the old threads here for places you can find free presets. They are really fun too.

I love your layout Lynn, and I'm all enthused with lightroom right now too! I've been taking a digital Photography course with John Greengo who works with Art Wolfe Travels to the edge TV series. I love his method of organizing photos through Lightroom and so am doing mine by the same method.
I truly believe learning new things keeps the mind young!!

I'm loving it too. I'm taking a break from about everything to get it learned. lol.
I just can't get used to not having layers.
