I'm Back and with a new word...FRUGAL

I took a short break to have my third child, but now we are all used to each other and have a somewhat steady routine.
Having 3 small children with gas prices averaging $4 a gallon and milk almost $2 more per gallon (and can you believe a 20 oz coke is $1.39!) , I'm learning everyday about being more frugal! As I’ve always been frugal, for the most part, I started to look into being greener as well.
For instance: I conserve water in my home, along with electricity. Primarily because I want to keep the cost down. BUT in doing so, I am also being kinder to the environment by not wasting unnecessary water OR using more electricity, burning more fuel and leaving less of a carbon footprint by cutting back.
While it may not be in our nature, we can often make do with less. Look first for monthly expenses that qualify as luxuries. Cut down on meals away from home and cook up all the goodies in the pantry and freezer before you head out to the grocery. Look for other ways to shave unnecessary spending from your budget. Driving is my big issue since I now drive a huge tank to stowaway all my children and get around for work. I am struggling with it, but am having luck finding ways to reduce my driving.
Whether you choose to live frugally, or you choose to live green, or be a tree hugger, or be conservative, it's all the same in the end. Just a matter of the words you put together to describe it
