    Default Hello from Edmonton, Alberta

    Hi, I've looked around this site for a while, but just finally got around to joining lol

    I'm 40 and a sahm of 4 kids. They range in age from 20 down to 6. The oldest is helping out his grandparents, the second one is in his 2nd year of university, my daughter is in grade 11 and has type 1 diabetes that keeps trying to kick her butt and the youngest is getting tested for autism and other developmental difficulties.

    I like to sew, scrapbook, read and bake. I am looking for more frugal ways to live so that we can get on top of the bills coming in so I can stay at home a while longer until we get the youngest's health issues figured out.

    Stacy

    I am hoping you can share some info about health care in your country. It would be interesting since we have health care reform issues in the US. Everyone always throws Canada into the discussion.
