    Thumbs up Good morning all, newbie here

    Not new to being frugal, new to this forum and website! I am a SAHM Mom of 3 , ages 8 weeks-10 years old, my husband works the traditional 40 hr week AND has started his own machine shop out of our garage, so some weeks he works 65+ hours. I am an xray tech by trade, still have my certifications, but cannot work due to hubby;'s demanding schedule. So, while he earns the $, my job is to s-t-r-e-t-c-h it as far as possible- always looking for new ways to make that $ go, go, go as far as it can. Big Suze Orman fan, just getting into Dave Ramsey, working our debt snowball. Our big plans- to pay off all debts but our house here in NH, and move to upstate SC (where my FIL and his wife live, Greenville area). While we anticipate moving before we can buy a house outright, we hope to pay at least 50% cash, between equity in our home when we sell and savings. So... a lot to do. I hope I can both teach some on this board, and learn from those here as well- looking forward to sharing the journey! ---and dang, how do you edit your title? I can spell, really, but it;'s so early - just diving into my coffee this a.m.!

    Hello. Welcome to the forum. I'm new here too so I have no idea how to edit a title here yet. Are you able to if you click on "edit"? Some forums will let you edit the title, others will not.

    There is a LOT of information here. This is quite a compendium. There are tons of frugal tips, and the money section is where I'm lurking.

    Have fun!
