Shaking my head

Well I am shaking my head around the can here and now I know why.  I had dropped the paperwork off Saturday morning to the bank and held my breath on it to see how long it would take to get to the proper person.  From Saturday until yesterday that is just plain out nuts in my book around here.  So the real house is still up in the air around here to say the least.  After that phone call I ended up getting told the other.  All I can say is WOW on that one.  It just make me wander about what has really happened over the years now or should I say what I do not know in what went on.  There has been so much that it hurts around here either way I go.  Maybe that is why I pretty much kept to myself over the years around here in NY State also.  I have also went that much cheaper around the can while I have been at it so I do stay inside more often.  It seems strange that some things have came along more than others also for the place here.  I have also seen alot of fraud go on in the city also with alot of things like the Social Security and welfare systems.  That includes the food pantries on top of it.  One is Nancy Hammond for the food banks around here.  I would not have said anything about it if I did not see it and I seen what Nancy Hammond did.  She had all 4 kids at different addresses to get more food from the food pantries around town.  After that I had tried to get away from that madness while I was on the system for about a year here in the can.  What can I say I had a cruddy job at the time and just had enough to pay the bills so I thought around here.  That is why I got started being cheaper/frugal around the place here.  In turn on my time off from the job that I just hated I started reading on line to get some ideas around here to help out.  When I first started the cheapness for the place I got torn down around here by Nancy totally.  Until I had about 50 dollars left over at the end of the month around the can in just little things that I was doing.  Now over the years around this place I have added alot of things that save money and have been cut down by the worst ones that have cut me down to the point of I had dread when the one would come over to see the new thing that I was doing at the time around the place.  Now that I still cook, shop, and many other things on the cheap for the place I still get cut down by Nancy Hammond.  She has done that for the past 15 years to me that now since my Niece is here under my roof that I have others to protect not just myself anymore.  In the past 4 months around here the girl has learned more than living with Nancy Hammond, her other aunt, and one of Nancy Hammond's friends.  My Niece also has found out that my Husband and myself are not the "Rich Folk" that Nancy Hammond has made us out to be at all around the place.  So that explains alot of in what my sister in law always said to me before she passed away over 4 years ago.  Now since I have been teaching my Niece that it is ok to shop on the sales pluss discounted stuff for the household and to cut down on alot of things that she uses around here.  The funny part of the whole thing is that since my Niece has been here alot of things have been making since in what I have shown her also.  Just like with the milk gravy that I make all of the time with the salt pork.  My Niece just looked at me and asked what I was doing with the milk and flour out for dinner one night.  I shook my head and asked if she was use to the packets or jar gravy and she said yes.  So I got 2 teaspoons of flour and about 4 cups of milk then whisked it all together over high heat until it got thick enough for my liking and put the dipper into it.  The poor girl liked the gravy so much that there was none left by the time we were done with dinner that night.  Now I get to teach her how to throw a huge dinner on the table a week from today around here.  I will start prepping this up coming Wednesday and have my Niece right there by my side around here to show her what to do.  With such a big bird that I want to cook for the place here I will need to dethaw the bird in the tub again this year (laughing at this again), just like I have done with acouple of birds in the past for dinner.
