    Default Um. Hi.

    Hi. I'm new.

    Here's my question thingy.

    How did you hear about frugal village? Stumbled across it in an insomnia-induced web browsing session.

    What interests you here? Yes! I'm just awed by the amount of information here. A lot of it I already knew but a lot of it...wow... I love learning new things! Especially when it means my family lives better and healthier and we save money.

    Do you know any other members here? Not that I know of.

    How many kids? Ages? One daughter, 8 years old.

    Tell us about yourself. Um. I can never answer this question. My name is Chele'. I'm 35. I've been married for 13 1/2 years. I'm quiet a lot. I learn things on my own a lot (with lots and lots of library books!). Seven months ago we made the decision (again) for me to be home full time because it would be better for all of us. I'm still trying to restore the order from the year that I was on that funky out of the home shift (my schedule was nights and I didn't see anyone for about a year because they were both on day schedules).

    Do you own any pets? Yes, two cats.

    SAHM or Working mom? Aren't SAHMs working moms too? ALL mom's work. Just because I don't get a pay...check... oh. Sorry. Just had that argument with someone so I'm still a little and all about it. Um. SAHM.

    Married or single? Married.

    Interests and hobbies? Cross stitching, crocheting, candle making, cooking, woodworking, aromatherapy, reading, all sorts of things! Am currently in the process of trying to teach myself to sew something besides little tiny pillowcases (!). Um. Yeah. More things. There's very little that I won't try. The Mister says I'm "crafty". Whatever that means.

    Hi chele, welcome to FV. We have some things in common. I do a little needlework and I'm learning to sew. I also love learning things from books and I try to learn something new every day. You'll get a lot from this site. Have fun and start posting.

    Thank you, Rhonda!

    I figured it out! I had just missed what I was looking for 'cause I was having a short circuit in the brainpan.

    I think so. Isn't it like spitting distance away from Port Richey?

    Wait... I'm asking you. I think it's about an hour northwest of me.
