Shaking my head
Well I am shaking my head around here to say the least out of the power company. It is alittle hard to take a reading when there is not one dang pwoer meter on the side of the house. So I see where this is going to go around here to say the least. Once the power company gets their heads out of some place then I will start cutting back on the power also around here to say the least. This is why I have the lines up down stairs besides it is better to dry the bigger blankets for the bed also without them smelling musty. Oh well at least I know in what I can do around here to cut the power down when some get the meter on the house here once again. I also have enough candles to last for a good while also around here for light in the mornings when I get up very early. It works for my place and the last go around I got 300 tea light candles for free with a shoppers card. With almost 11 dollars so far on the Kmart card I think I will be getting more candles that are nonsented around here once October hits again. With some people that is what got to them about my place totally when I started lighting candles and got enough light to see in one room with, around the trailer at the time. Now is no differant at all since the place is bigger to say the least. Between some appliances that are power hogs around the households everywhere. I will say that I do not even want the A/C unit even here this summer at all. It was nice and cool without it in the worst days of this past summer. Also since I have enough window fans around here I can use them up stairs to move the air around to keep cool with this summer. With that being said there are alot of tricks to keep the house cool compaired to the trailer any day of the week. Now that I can say that the bills have came down around the household now without some here it is nice let me tell you. It seems like the both of us can controle the bills alot better now becuase I do not need to do some things around the household and my Niece is not taking up alot of it at this point in time also. I know that the water bill will be down from when the girl lived with us over at the trailer and so will the power bill. There is nobody watching T.V. untill 3 am at all anymore and I had stopped that within 2 weeks of the girl moving in with us. The perental controles did wanders for the trailer totally. I have came to the point of I am so glad that I told my Niece and her boyfriend no at this point in time still. I do not care if some are mad at me for it still since I could see what was going to happen. Now at this point the bills have came down around here and that is including the grocery bill my Husband and myself would have been stuck paying for everything in the household and I was not going to chance that at all. Also for the past year around here my Husband and I were talking anout cutting off the house phone totally. Since the both of us have cell phones I was figureing why bother to have the house phone going and the bill to go along with it all while we were at it all. So that got shut off on Monday of this week and I have not missed it at all. My Niece would have freaked out in why I canned the house phone. With that being done I have notice there is alot less stress on my part after I have thrown the girl out then told her boyfriend no on top of it. The phone went and afew other things here in the household and the mooches have not bothered to ask for a dang dime nor a pack of smokes off of us in the past 2 months. I have been impressed as of late around here to say the least in that I have been totally streaching things out to the max and cutting more over at the stores and off the bills around here without help at all. Also now it seems wierd that I can get alot more done without some people here all of the time and I do not have to keep at them to go looking for a job or reminding some to streach out the dollars that much farther in the household.
