Default Hello.

Hi.

I haven't found a general "Newbie" thread yet, so I'll introduce myself here. I'm a used bookseller, ex tech writer, wannabe fiction writer. I have a part time job in a farm stand, which is hard work, but i love it. I grew up in L.A., moved to the low desert in college, then followed my guy to the high desert, GA, FL, and finally New England, where we've been for 15 years now.

I'm married, no kids. LIve in a log house on the side of a hill next to a ski resort. We bought on the downward slope in real estate years ago (Geo Bush Sr, term 2).

My immediate goal is to get rid of at least one of our cc's with my salary (we live on DH's income). My long term goal is to get rid of all but one or two of them and put something aside for our retirement.

Glad to see a common-sense board. I belong to a lot of "how to save money" groups online, but many of them get more and more elaborate over time. I don't mind graphics etc. but I'd rather have content.

JD

Sorry, I just found the intro thread, pls. move this. My apologies! jkd
