    How did you hear about frugal village? I found FV online when looking for ways to pinch pennies (or more of them).

    What interests you here? I love reading all the creativity from others who don't want to spend a lot to live a great life.

    What will you contribute? I may have some ideas, but mostly I will contribute my support for the frugal lifestyle.

    Do you know any other members here? No.

    How many kids? Ages? I have 1 son (Sam, 17), 1 step-son (Travis, 23) and 2 step-daughters (Holly, 26 and Jessica, 28).

    Tell us about yourself. -- I am an active mother and grandmother who believes that the best gift you can give your kids and grandkids is time. I am married to my best friend and together we strive for a lifestyle that is not based on how much you make, but how happy can we be with what we make.

    Do you own any pets? 12 dogs, 7 cats, 7 ducks and 2 horses.

    Occupation? My husband and I just started a logging and milling business this year.

    Married or single? Married

    Interests and hobbies? Cooking, gardening, hunting, trapping, fishing, camping, snowshoeing, jogging

    Oh yes, we love animals. We usually have more - chickens, pheasants, cattle, pigs - but we have downsized due to not being home enough with the new business. Kinda miss having them all, too!
