I just joined the group today and am very new to posting anything online; so, please forgive any and all mistakes. Am a little nervous, but -- here goes nuthin

My husband and I live in a log house in a rural area of North Louisiana (although our hearts belong to Tennessee and the Smoky Mountains). I worked as a legal secretary for almost 24 years prior to retiring for a multitude of reasons all rolled into one big ball (stress factor, my health, my mother's health (stroke/heart) and the desire to spend time with my 4 young grandsons, ages 5 and down).



Love to cross-stitch, general crafts, read and spend time on computer. With my husband now being the only one working, am interested in the "frugal" aspect of life and placing a greater value on my time, the almighty dollar, etc. The different areas of this e-zine greatly interest me and am looking forward to whatever tidbits any of you can contribute in those areas.

My husband and I both love to go "cruising" to the antique and muscle car shows in our 1985 Chevy Monte Carlo SS. (He loves to fix it up--as most men do) In short, we're old enough to have our kids raised and a few grandchildren, but we're still young enough to enjoy spending time together in some really fun ways.

Hello!!! I am just curious on what a creative memories consultant is? I reside in Chicago, IL and I have never heard of creative memories? Is it for scrap booking??

Hi Everyone ....another newbie

What an enjoyable place this is turning out to be !

I found these boards while looking for other frugal sites. I,too, chose to leave the other board after they started charging a fee.

A little about me......We live north of Pitts. Pa, ( but root for the NY Jets, not Steeler fans, LOL !!). I am originally from here but my DH is from Upstate NY.

We just celebrated our 5th anniversary in Oct.
We have 1 son who just turned 4 in Oct. too

Im a SAHM for now but starting to look to return to work
My DH is a mechanic for a major airline

For fun on the weekends, we like to hop in the car and just drive.....go exploring the areas around us. We also love yard sales and flea markets.

We are big sports fan.......NY Jets, Pitts. Penguins ( I like the Avalanche too ) and Nascar Winston Cup Racing.....Dh loves Dale E. Jr and I like Kevin Harvick ( cant help but like Tony Stewart cause he is so darn cute when hes mad !!)

Any other sports fan around here ?

While Im asking, anyone else from Pa. ?

I look forward to talking to all of you !!!

I'd new and would like to introduce myself

Good morning everyone from Florence AZ. I am 47 years old and newly (January 23) married to a wonderful man. It's the second marriage for both of us. We have 3 great kids, Bobby 18;Ashley 12; and Nathan 9, so as you can see I am starting over at being a full time mom since Bobby moved out on his own. Tommy and I met online 16 months ago. He moved to AZ from NC last February, so never give up...the right one is out there somewhere and you'll find each other if it's meant to be. I am a certified nursing assistant for 24 years and my husband is a maintenance mechanic for the school system here. Loosely translated that means that he is expected to (and CAN ) fix just about anything.Hope to make some new friends here and exchange lots of ideas and hopes and dreams.

Hi, I'm a mom of two wonderful kids ages 14 and 5. My husband and I just went fulltime with our business at the end of last year.
Needless to say we have also been very frugal lately. So far things are going well.

Hi everyone!

I am so happy I found this site. I, too, was on the frugal-moms forum but just could not pay the fee. Our budget is very tight and my dh will be retiring soon. I have one son in elementary school. Yes, I am an old mommy. I hope to join in the fun conversations on saving money. I was bitten by the frugal bug about eight years ago.
Frugal friend,
Mary
