    Default Hi, I'm new

    I've lurked this site for.ev.er. and finally decided to sign up.


    How did you hear about frugal village? Ummm, gosh, I think it was an internet search a few months ago. We went through a tough financial patch when I first started working and I was looking for ways to cut some corners. I used a lot of the freebies links and the freebies are still rolling in.

    What interests you here? pretty much everything. My husband makes fun of me for being a tightwad, so it's nice to find my own kind here.

    Do you know any other members here? No, I don't think so.

    How many kids? Ages? 2, girls, almost 8 and 5

    Tell us about yourself. Gosh, these questions pretty much covered a lot about me, but I guess I can add some more.....

    I'll be 31 in 10 days or so. My husband is in the Air Force, and we are stationed in Utah. Because of this, I'm used to being on a tight budget. I have a BS in Accounting and work (part time for now) for an accounting/consulting firm.


    Do you own any pets? Yes, a dog

    SAHM or Working mom? Working. I'm an accountant. By day.

    Married or single? Married

    Interests and hobbies? I knit. Almost too much. Wait, I'm not sure you can knit too much...it's a functional hobby - I can make stuff to wear or use, and it keeps my hands busy while watching tv at night.

    Anything else, just ask!

    That's a nice, easy going, old fashioned name for such a high octane pooch!
