    Hi! I'm Stephanie and I've been kind of looking around here for a couple of days. Just thought I would introduce myself. We don't have much credit card debt, but we have well over $40,000 in medical bills just from the last year. So we really need to be extra careful about everything in order to get those paid off! I've already learned a few things just from looking around, but more than anything I need encouragement from others who have been there, done that!


    How did you hear about frugal village? Google search

    What interests you here? Money saving tips, environmental tips, tips on simplifying life

    Do you know any other members here? Nope

    How many kids? Ages? 2 boys, Logan, 2.5 and Noah, 1

    Tell us about yourself. I was a real estate agent until I had my youngest child. I decided to stay home at that point, the loss in income was a big hit for us, especially in January when my oldest child was diagnosed with hypophosphatasia (rare bone disease) and in July when my youngest was diagnosed with celiac disease. Whew, what a year!!

    Do you own any pets? one cat, Asher

    SAHM or Working mom? SAHM

    Married or single? Married to my wonderful hubby, Dillan

    Interests and hobbies? my kids, my faith, scrapbooking, organizing, cleaning
