Hi There! :)
I just signed up for this forum, so I thought I'd introduce myself.
How did you hear about frugal village? A Google search where I was looking for some info on Dave Ramsey.
What interests you here? I've been a huge Dave Ramsey fan for several years, but I was never able to get my husband to pay attention to our finances until about a month ago. Now he's on board and we are going to start working the baby steps as soon as we catch up on some bills that are behind.
What will you contribute? Um...a friendly smile and words of encouragement to kindred spirits.
Do you know any other members here? no
How many kids? Ages? 3. I have a daughter that just turned 5 on Thanksgiving and twin boys that just turned 2 in October.
Tell us about yourself. I am 27 years old and have been married to my amazing husband for 5 years. I am originally from Northern California, but my husband and I moved here to Nashville just before we got married. My job transferred me here. I also just got a second job delivering pizzas so that we can get our snowball rolling.
Do you own any pets? 1 cat
Occupation? I work in corporate retail during the day and moonlight as a pizza delivery driver.
Married or single? Married
Interests and hobbies? I don't have much spare time, but when I'm not working, cooking, cleaning or kissing boo-boos I like to run (I try to do a 5k a month) and I'm a total book nerd.
