Hello blogging world!

This is my very first attempt at blogging. I've been thinking about trying it out for a few months, but, being new to the world of blogs (I read my first one in February), and having an innate need to 'figure it out' first, I've been waiting and reading, hoping to learn all the rules first. I've since come to the conclusion that the world of blogging is so very vast that I will never learn all the customs and rules of blogging communities, so I might as well just jump in.

So here I am. A blogger. Yikes, hope I don't screw it up! I don't know if I like the name of my blog, but I do know my favorite blogs are about frugality, so I'm guessing I may end up writing about this topic a fair bit.

I'm also quite passionate about social justice. I can see myself also writing about topical news, and my reactions to it. That's not really about being frugal, but I couldn't come up with a title that encompassed both. As this is a trial run, and as I'm not looking to develop an audience for this blog, I'm allowing myself to experiment a bit, even if that means not being focused. Really, I just want to practice writing.

So let's give it a whirl!
