Hi Irene,
I have subscribed to LRCC & Photoshop CC for almost 3 years. I use Photoshop for PP. Last year I decided to create and use a LR catalog. However, I still do not import via LR. I have my own system. So, my New Year resolution was to learn LR. I decided to redo my entire Photo Drive organization as a first step. Began yesterday by creating a new folder, called Photos 1-15-17, on one of my 3 external drives. I have always stored my photos by year/folder name/photos. Not a very good system. After reorganizing, I will create a new catalog in LR and import the newly categorized folder, Photos 1 - 15 - 17. I have Scott Kelby's LightroomCC book and access to youtube and Kelbyone for tutorials and learning. I'm about half finished with the re categorizing. Before I import to LR, I'll reformat my dedicated internal Photo Drive and import my new Photos 1 - 15 - 17 folder from the external drive. I backup my three internal drives to externals and the Cloud. I'm pretty excited about the new approach to photo cataloging.
Thanks for the post and good luck on your pp and exposure endeavors.

Great goal! You remind me that I need to backup my LR catalog to one of 2 new Seagates I purchased this past November.
