    Default Another New Gal

    Hello, I been lurking here for a couple of months and decided to join in.
    Became interested in becoming frugal after adding up all my credit card balances. (It was quite a shock putting them down on paper and adding them up). I realized how much we were living outside of our income when hubby had surgery and was off work for two months without pay. I'm not one to look back though--only looking to how I can change the future and learn from past mistakes. My hobbies are gardening and cooking. I been mainly into flower gardening but next year I've made up my mind to start growing some vegetables as I really do like canning. I've learn a lot from lurking these past few weeks and look forward to joining in.
