    Red face Making a single income work!!

    How did you hear about frugal village?
    I Googled "frugal forum"

    What interests you here?
    That everyone here is working towards the same basic goals that I am. Who better to learn from than those who have "been there." My biggest dream is to own a home that can not be taken away from my family. Seems like a small dream in comparisson to some bigger things in life, but I have moved over and over again and I must leave some stability for my daughter.

    What will you contribute?
    Honestly all I can contribute is my sarcasim and maybe make some people smile sometimes

    Do you know any other members here?
    None yet...

    How many kids? Ages?
    1 daughter, 2.5 years.

    Tell us about yourself.
    Just a mom in debt trying to figure out how to fix all the financial mistakes I have made since I turned 18. Now that I am 27 it is time to grow up and be responsible for my accounting.

    Do you own any pets?
    Used to, but not anymore

    Occupation?
    I work from home for the same company I have been with for 4 years.

    Married or single?
    I am married.

    Interests and hobbies?
    I love to crochet, sew, knit, read, video games, live music, bicycle rides when it's beautiful out, etc...

    Can't wait to jump in people, just don't know where to get started...

    Welcome! I am new to the forum too. I started by jumping into a couple of the challenges.

    Mostly I just wanted to say that I LOVE Avatar (the show), so I think your avatar is awsome!
