New here from So Cal
Here are my answers to the questionnaire.
How did you hear about frugal village? Searching for frugal ideas to help save money
What interests you here? Developing a budget and sticking to it so we can reduce our debt and save, save, save!
What will you contribute? I will try to contribute as much as possible. Hope I will learn a lot and be able to give other newbies an idea of where to start and how to stick to it.
Do you know any other members here? No
How many kids? Ages? Kayleb, 10mths, 2 dogs and 3 cats
Tell us about yourself. DH is in construction so work has been slow and unpredictable but he just scored a great new job so I hoping that we can now create a budget, stick to it and start living better for less. I know that we make more than enough money between to two of us yet we are always broke. That's not the kind of life that I want to live anymore and I think that maybe I finally go DH on board.
Do you own any pets? 2 dogs, 3 cats and 2 fish tanks
Occupation? Accounting Assistant, Riverside County Transportation Commission. My dream is to one day be a SAHM but I'm not sure that will ever happen
Married or single? Married, 10/22/2006
Interests and hobbies? Saving money, shopping(those 2 clash), Gardening, cooking and spending as much time as possible with my family
