As I sit here

Well I am sitting here plotting the day as normal.  With the day I have to go out for about an hour if not longer around here this morning and drop off some more paper work of course.  Then again it is funny that I get the task of doing this around here.  Then I will come back and start cleaning like a mad woman once again for the place.  So now to really plan the day so I can get some things done and off my mind around here.  And yes I will be doing everything on the cheap today.  My Niece is getting sick of the cheap side of life that I do for the can also.  She also realizes that we have to cut the bills around here while we are at it all since some of us have to to streach the money out.  There are alot of things that some do not understand of why I went this way.  The folks who question in what I do have not been totally broke also and they do not run my household at all.  Just like last week when I went out for acouple of hours here.  They are down to collecting cans again for the end of the month around thier place.  My place is no differant at all at this point in time.  With alot of folks they are still broke and will be broke.  I have cut alot of things around here and will continue to do so and my Niece can get mad if she wants to.  Also the water bill is still about 15 dollars this time around and I am hopeing it will coninue to be like that when we move.  It is amazeing in what a low flow washer and not flushing the cammode all of the time can do for the place.  What gets to me the most is that after some seen my washer they wanted it and wanted to take it out of my place.  I laughed and told them to go get one for thier place.  They diden't of course.  Pluss the person that really wanted my washer told me I was stupid for getting the drying racks also for the household.  The person that told me that does not have a clue at all in how cheap I really am around the place.  I laugh all the time about when most people try to tare me down.  Most of who does that is not coming over to my place anymore.  Just like I told another Niece and you always thought that the grass was greener on the other side and the joke is on the girl still.  Just like with the Niece that is here in my household I have learned more in your place at this point even though it drives her nuts that I am really cheap around here.  She knows that I am trying to get her ready for when she does fly the coup around here that she knows what to do.  Then it is not a total shock when my Niece leaves here.  What went on was that one grew up way to fast and the other got the mushroom syndrome.  The one that ate crap as I say when she moved into Nancy Hammond's place knows in how to run a household by 19 and can if she wants to by this point.  The other was basicly spoiled untill she moved into someplace that was non relaited to her and got took big time.  Last time I talked to her she could not appologize enough to me for what she did and how she did it.  And she knew that she made the mistake of going to where she did.  All I could tell her was now I am happy that you diden't come here to my place at all and I got new appliances out of the deal.  I did not say that I scraped and scrimped to get them and on top of it I went on the cheap/frugal side of life.  Some of the children in todays world would not understand and rant and rave becuase they have to have the new gadgats out there.  This is why I like the Amish community so much now days.  You get what you get and tough.  Pluss there's no power out that way at all.  I can deal without power alot of the times eather way I look at it around here.  So eather way I am hopeing for a cheap day for the place and go from there.
