    Smile Hello from Texas

    Hi,
    My name is Mickey and I live in Texas. I have visited here several times but never have gotten around to posting anything. I am a 40 year old wife to Robert, and mother of two girls, Lilly(15) and Anna(9). I work for a tax company Jan. thru April and then I work from home the rest of the year. I also sell at our local Trades Day, (aka flea market) each month. I sell gift baskets of all types and handcrafted clothing for children. I also sell home made candies and jams and relishes. I love crafts!!! I have read many of the posts on here and have decided that I will try to be here on a daily basis to see whats going on. My husband and I just paid off our home. We also paid off our car and are now only dealing with our regular bills, (utilities, insurance, grocerys etc..) I do have two credit cards of my own, but they have small limits. I do well grocery shopping, I love to clip coupons and see how much I can save. I have gone into a grocery store and bought $100.00 worth of groceries for less than $50 bucks. I really do try to be frugal with my spending but I would really appreiciatre any ideas on how to save more money. Also, how does the thing work where you list debts and the change that you save. (I said I was new to this!!) LOL Looking forward to hearing from you guys!! Looks like a fun place.
    Thanks!!
