    Default Another newbie!

    I am so happy that I found this site! A quick snapshot of my life: Dh and I have almost killed his credit card debt and are ready to save up for the adoption of our first baby. I am always on the outlook for ways to save money, but with our new goal, I am especially excited to save pennies! Every penny we can save is going into the adoption fund. Our goal is to have $10,000 saved by April. We are both teachers, so you can imagine that our incomes are not huge! LOL I'm looking forward to getting to know you all and learn lots of great tips, too!! Now I'm off to check out more of this site. . .
