Wandering once again

I have been wandering once again this morning.  I know that my Niece is not feeling good around the place only because she got up for about an hour and went back to bed.  I think I will let her sleep for today and check on her every so often here.  So with this morning I have been listening to the news as normal around here and NY State is screwed and a huge money situation that could have been avoided totally.  With alot of the Medicaid claims around here half the people do not need it at all nor food stamps here in NY State.  I know of one household that does not need it at all between the both.  This is what makes me mad around here is that some figure they can use and abuse the system and think nothing of it at all.  I know that the cut off is 2100 dollars if that for 3 people in the household for everything except HEAP.  Also I have not asked for a red hot cent from the Hammond's at all for child support around here for their one Grandaughter that I have in my care.  What does this say about them not giveing a rats behind about some things.  So at this point in time I can tell the State in how to cut alot of the crud out of the budget and it is not worth wasteing my breath on it at all.  So now I will controle my budget and go from there.  There are alot of ways to do this for me of course and it will get done around here weather some like it or not.  I enjoy putting the screws to NY State with all the taxes on the power bill also around here.  This is why I have been turning things off during the peak hours for the power and hanging laundery on the drying racks around the place even more so during the past 7 months around here.  When the taxes are more than what I have used for power then there is a problem here.  Now with that being said around here I will be putting my foot down that much harder in the new place when we get into it.  There will be more laundery hanging up than some will realize and alot more things turned off also in the new place.  As I say we do not need any lights at all to run the household and I just do not care if some like it or not around here.  So either way I will win alot of battles around the both places just because I can.  With today I have to get some laundery done and hanging here in the can weather I want to or not.  At this point I am still trying to get some things packed here in the can to make it easier on myself for when we all move out of the can.  That is the bad part of the whole thing around the place.  With only the packing that us gals have done around here it seems like it is not enough even though part of my liveingroom has boxes to the gills around the place.  So eather way I need to get more done today and I may just do that today with parts of the kitchen and my Nieces room again.  It is not that bad and I have came to realize this all.  After 17 years in one spot I knew I had alot of things here in the can and I have utilized the space totally being in a 700 square foot can.  There will always be the nooks and crannies that you can find something to stick in when you have a stocked up place.  With the dirty laundery it goes into a bag out in the hallway untill I get enough for at least a load or 2.  Just like I have a bucket for the shampoo and conditioner in the bathroom at this point.  Some folks I did shock when I was useing my Sister in Laws stock when she passed.  I did not have to buy bar soap, shampoo, nor conditioner for about 4 years around here at all.  By the time I figured it all out I saved about 3 grand around here in that stuff totally.  So now I can say I will never do it again around here and go from there on cleaning out someone elses place.  I may be tight with money at all costs for the place but, to forget in what you bought is just plain out nuts.  Also I did get alot of totes from my Sister in Law and it has helped out in that department around here on the packing.  That is how I got alot of my bedroom packed up also.  It was already packed and all I have to do is move the totes into where they are suppose to go at the new place.  My Niece will come to realize this all when we all start to move around here in the fluke that was pulled so will other folks that are going to help out around here when the time comes.  One friend gets to sit there and look pretty and instruct totally when this is going to happen.  So now I can say there is a reason to my madness on saveing money and go from there.  Between the coupons and several other things that I have done and about ready to do for the place.
