Hi from WI
Hi,
I am a Christian homeschool mom of 4 trying to live a more frugal life. My dh got laid off about a year and a half ago and had to take an $8 pay cut in job.
It's been tough for sure but really want to learn how to cut any more corners that I can.
I also moderate at The Homeschool Lounge on the Frugal Living site in case anyone is interested
Looking forward to meeting you all.
Julie

Aloha and welcome from Hawaii!!
Travel light. The baggage of the past can only hold you back.
