Now for the long day

I know it will be a long day now around here.  Well I will get the dishes done and start cooking around here for part of the day.  I pretty much shocked the doctor when I said I have to make sauce since I am totally out at this point and I was not budgeing off grandma's recipie.  The funny part of all of this is that my Niece is going to be in shock when she gets back to the homefront today.  I say this is becuase I guess I am suppose to start cooking with a nasty kitchen around here.  Well all this will change around here becuase I am putting my foot down for the place today.  The laptop is gone for at least a couple of weeks untill she learns that the chores come first then play later around here.  So now at this point the fun part will start when the dish water cools down to where I can put my hands in the water to get to the dishes.  The joys of being a parent around in today's world and kick some toush still.  With that being said also the poor girl will know what cheap is all about after today also.  I am willing to go even cheaper around here without a problem and it is a good sign that I am about ready to do all of this.  So now to get everything down on paper for the place once again and go from there.  At this point alot of the name brands are going out the window around here and alot more scratch cooking will be done also.  It scared some folks that I found the noodles for acouple of dinners around here for dirt cheap at Ollie's the other day.  Pluss now that there are some things that need to be done eather way I go around here it will get somewhat hairy at first untill some get use to the fact that I am running the household again and not them.  Once I get that set as of today then I will watch the heads spin around here also.  The other part is I will not get to wierd around here being on the cheap/frugal side of life at all.  At this point in time I know where to get the dry bulk for the household and afew other things while I am out of the household.  I also got asked today in where I shop at again.  I started laughing and said all over except at Sam's club at the moment.  So the person asked how could she hide the cereal that was the off brand.  I told the gal here is how I did it keep the old box and shove the new bag into the old box and that is how ya trick the children and the Husband.  Feeding 5 kids is hard in todays world.  Since the prices went sky high on alot of things.  Also I said I do pull out the trusty old crock pot and it helps for dinner when you are that busy during the week.  There are ways to trick folks in the household when you are shopping at the discount stores also.  I get a huge laugh every time out of it all when my Niece asks can we go here for food instead and why are ya doing it that way.  Since I do use coupons around here at places like Kmart, Walmart, and some of the dollar stores it does help around here for the budget.  As I told someone again today that Dollar General takes the printed coupons and so does Walmart.  Ok I never said that I did not believe in the coupons at all becuase they all do help out for saveing money around here for my place.  Also I told the Gal today that I do alot of things from scratch in my place.  Pluss in how I have cut down on alot of things around my place also.  And yes Momma's out rule around the households.  And on Tuesday I will tell the Gal that works on me also about http://www.hillbillyhousewife.com/ for dinner ideas also.  Some of what I cook has came off of Susanne's site.  Now with the salt pork I had to go else were for it and it is not that bad if you eat it every so often.  That was the funny part and my Husband started hollering about it.  Since I do not make it all of the time around here he deals with it.  I am not a total salt person myself around here and I do not use it unless I really have to at all.  This is why I do not mind salt pork every so often around the place.  Now at this point also I know that Kmart had some things that the card goes further for the household also.  Just like when I bought the KitchenAid stand mixer for my place.  I have used the KitchenAid appliances more around here than anything else that I have.  When I reach for the KitchenAid around here some know that they are in trouble with myself cooking also for the place.  Eather way around here alot of the attachments came from http://www.kitchenaid.com/ and shop for the mixer or the food proccessor that you have and get the price.  Shop all around for the best deals also.  I will have some of the appliances out as normal in the new house also when we get the green light to move on in.  With some folks they did not like the fact that after I did not get my one Niece that I really started on the cheap/frugal side so I could get better stuff to work with for the can.  At this point I am still pretty cheap around here and I am getting cheaper by the day around here now.  It was the 3 days of where my Niece has been out of the place by this point in time and I got some things totally straight around here also.  I also warned my Husband if you hear me you know that the girl is home by that point.  Now since I have some other things done around here all I have to do is wipe down the one counter now and start cooking around here.  I have stewed in this for the past 24 hours practicly and now I am madder than ever that I have to do and not her.  I havent bothered to start cooking at all since I had 3 loads of dishes to do around here and then some.  Pluss not only that I told my Husband you better start backing me in a hurry also around the dump.  I have also scared the poor michanichs at the shop also and they work on the 18 wheelers.  I was calm about it and that is what scared them the most I am thinking.  When I go to swearing alot that is when you know I am ok around the place when I go totally calm then worry.
