    Default Howdy from MO

    Hey y'all. I'm not sure if I said howdy before when I first joined, but just figured I would again if not. Not a stranger to being frugal, just getting back into the swing of things. I live just outside Independence, MO. It's not the most expensive place to live, but with 3 kids, any frugality I can gain is well worth the effort.

    Hello and thank you to all of you.

    Maui, they may be terrific people, but there seems to be many that can't seem to do a complete job or do it right. I grew up and lived in KS up until June 08, and have been in two houses here now (renting) and both seem to be plagued with harebrained designs in plumbing, electrical, etc. It's frustrating, but its cheaper to live on the MO side of KC than it is to live on the KS side, so I live with it.
