    Default Jumping In!

    Hi! I'm a 34 year old Special Education Teacher. I live with my DH and our two cats in Upstate, NY. DH is a firefighter/paramedic and works part time for a Doctor's office. He is also a full time student working on becoming a RN! Whew!

    I am looking for ideas to save money and help pay down debt. DH and I realized that we were living the high life for too long and if we wanted to purchase our forever home and start a family, we needed to buckle down! I find I really like Dave Ramsey because he is easy to follow.

    I'm looking forward to getting to know everyone on the boards!
