Sitting here thinking
Well I am sitting here thinking to say the least yet again. I am still cutting on the budget around here and figureing out where else to cut here. The weird part of this is that I know where to cut and have not made the move as of yet to do so. Ok so I will have to call the cable company to start cutting in on that part of the bill of course. There is about another 50 pluss dollars I can cut from that bill at this point in time for the household here. Since both of us, myself and my Husband, really do not watch the one movie package at all around here why bother to have it at this point in time. There are many ways that I can still save here in the household and still be on track with the bills here. The poor woman at the water department thought that the water bill was for 3 months around here when it was for 6 months at 95 dollars. I did not give up in what I do for here at the house to save on the water at all at the office. Some were shocked at the idea in what I really do to save money on things like the water bill totally. The HE washer helps out for the place so does running one sink of soapy water and one sink of plain water. Also I do not flush the cammode all of the time around here unless the one duty calls. Between the dishes, cammode, and the washer they take up more water than what some realize for the household. So I have cut back on the bills and it does not seem like it at all at this point in time. I am always working on it all for the place. Just like with the power bill here I have been working on that part since we got the meter put back into the house here. This is what alot of folks do not realize also about the household with the power issue at hand. WIth like the computers they still hog up the energy even if they are off. The power still goes in becuase to keep the battery going and charged. I know this totally for the place. What I do is turn off the modem and the cable boxes during the day alot of the times here and that is about 30 dollars a month with that part done. Also while I am at it alot of things are on the power strips totally so I can turn off things at one switch and have it unplugged totally. I do not mind unplugging things at all around here to say the least. It drives some folks that I know up the wall when I do this part of things here at the house. With that said I have also pretty much stopped using the dryer around here for most of the laundry that we have. There is one person who uses it around here and that is maybe once a month or so for another households laundry. So now at this point in time most of the bills are not that bad for the house here at all and that is looking at the trailer with the bills over there totally. Over at the trailer the power bill was just over the top most months even at 95 dollars. With nothing running at all the bill was still 16 dollars a month around there. There is something going on over at Sabre Park with alot of the bills over there to say the least. So now at this point I am happy to be out of the trailer park totally to be done with all of what went on. I would rather pay the 65 dollars here at the house than the 95 pluss dollar power bills at the trailer. I know someone that hardly had things going at their place and they had an 800 dollar bill there and that was across the street at the trailer. So either way there is still drama at Sabre Park and I refuse to be a part of it totally. With that said some folks noticed that I had started really keeping to myself the last year that we were at the trailer totally. Pluss some also noticed that I was doing what I had to do in the mornings so I did not have to deal with anyone at all around the park. I guess that is why when I went to the doctors office I combined the shopping after the visit. Talk about doing things while I was out at the time and it was safer around my place. Then this way I did not have to go back out of the trailer at the time also while I was at it all.
