About Me
My name is Carrie. I’m a 26 year old woman living in the San Francisco Bay Area. My day job is prepress and marketing in the printing industry and at that job I work hard to think of ways to make our printing more green and more efficient. (At this time, however, I’m undergoing treatment for Hodgkin’s Lymphoma and am on disability leave.)
My dad’s side of the family has many members who are (not officially diagnosed) obsessive compulsive hoarders. I have no doubt that hoarding is genetic and I fight the urge on a daily basis. Striving to be frugal, green, clean, and organized are tools I’ve found to combat the hoarding urges.
Since I live in alone in a high cost of living area and want to have plenty of money left over for saving and investing, I work hard to stick to a budget and live within my means.
About It’s Frugal Being Green
It’s Frugal Being Green is the story of my trials and tribulations related to being more frugal and being more green as I live my day to day life. I hope to succeed more often than I fail but it’s a struggle and a journey.
