Newb!
Hey guys I'm brand new to the site! I just got laid off from my job and am currently trying to downscale almost everything my husband and I do. Which I am finding is somewhat hard to do when we have downscaled almost everything before hand. We have been working on paying off my student loans since August and have right about 8k more to go on them, down from the 20k that we started with. We are large believers of if it isn't broke don't fix it and buying things used. Our friends think we're nuts sometimes but, eh.
That's about where we're at and I'm excited to be a member of this forum!
Oh and the two blogs in my sig, one is kinda a food/whats going on blog and the other is our debt blog. I try to post in them on a regular basis but who knows when I get to them
.
Hi everybody!

Travel light. The baggage of the past can only hold you back.

Thank you so much for the warm welcome! Since I have been laid off it has been so important to tighten up more than we have before, which is how I found this website.
