The Frugal Girl

FEBRUARY 18, 2024

I’ve been an architect, day-care teacher to toddlers, and library clerk, but am currently a SAHM to a 14yo son and 9yo daughter. It’s important for my mental health to know we are doing what we can to protect our future selves. My son is allergic to dairy, wheat, nuts, eggs and peas. We share our home with a 70lb rescued mutt.

The Frugal Girl

NOVEMBER 13, 2023

My degree is in mechanical engineering, but I’m just starting a transition to nursing – before I got pregnant with my son, I was working as a nursing assistant while my husband finished grad school, and planning to go on to nursing school. I love winter – trees on my favorite trail 4. What’s your best frugal win?
