    Default New Here

    Hello all! I'm new here and just thought I would introduce myself. I live in Missouri with my hubby of 21 years. We have three kids ages 19, 16, and 9. To tell you a little about myself the questionnaire asked these things:

    How did you hear about frugal village? Google d for a frugal forum

    What interests you here? Find out what others are doing to be frugal.

    What will you contribute? New friends.

    Do you know any other members here? I don't think so.

    How many kids? Ages? 3 (two girls-19 and 16, and a boy-9).

    Tell us about yourself. I drive a school bus so I call myself a working stay-at-home mom. I love to read, and find ways to stay frugal and organized.

    Do you own any pets? Yes, a dog, a cat, a fish, and LOTS of farm animals.

    Occupation? Bus driver and stay-at-home mom.

    Married or single? Married for 21 years to my high school sweetheart.

    Interests and hobbies? Reading, sudoku, and cross-stitch.

    Don't mind Russ the cookie hound... tell him you made a batch for him though & he'll probably be your friend for life.
