    Default New guy from Nevada

    Hi from Northern Nevada. I learned about Frugal Village from my girlfriend, and thought I would see for myself. I have been learning frugality from her, but still have a long way to go to catch up to her. I have 2 kids, a daughter that just graduated HS, and a son who is 16. 1 dog, a Rhodesian Ridgeback named Bonds (yes, I am a Giants fan). I'm a cabinetmaker for a company that builds cabinets and fixtures for retail stores. I was laid off for 6 months but recently was hired back. Guess they liked my work.I live check to check, so hopefully this site will be good for me in saving money.
