    Smile Hello from upstate NY

    Hi everyone. I found this site last night and browsed some of the forums and articles. I really liked what I saw and so decided to join today.

    My dd and I have been shopping and cooking frugally for over a year now and have saved a lot of money. I have also paid off 2 trucks and an RV last year. This years goal is to get rid of a credit card balance and pay off our tractor.

    I'm mom to 3 grown children, grandmother to 9 and great grandmom to an adorable, feisty "almost" 2 year old.

    Looking forward to chatting with you, and sharing ideas and experiences.

    Thanks, NikoSan999. I can see you have challenged yourself to accomplish much this year too. And you are doing it. Kuddos to you!!!

    I'm not sure where to begin with a challenge, but I think I'd better start soon, or be left way behind. LOL

    Glad you joined us
    From another NYer here.

    Just jump in on any of the challenges.
    They really help to motivate you.

    Wow, thank you for all the warm welcomes. Just wish they could help to melt some of this snow. I too, have already had enough of winter. Can't wait for spring. Anxious to get my garden in.

    Howdy to my fellow New Yorkers. What section are you from? I'm in the Lake George area. Oh, I hope it's alright to put that in here.

    Well, just wanted to say thanks for making me feel so welcome. I never expected so many responses so quick. This is a great site with super friendly people.

    I'm heading to find my first challenge. Will post when I get it.

    Ok, I'm back. I looked all over and can't find the list of challenges. Is there a list of challenges, or is the joke on me?
    I'm not feeling too bright right now. But, I'm still grinning.....
