Shaking my head

Well I have to get back up to the store sometime this week around here without question at all.  I forgot about the snot rags as I call them around here so I will have to get some this week and afew other things also for the second kitchen while I am at it all.  So as I sit here I am making another list up to see what else is needed around here and go from there.  I got to thinking over the years in how long it has took me to get the stock between the trailer and the house here also today.  The coupons have helped out alot here do not get me wrong at all about it.  This is what some do not get in why I have used them around here at all untill they hit the bottom and realize that in order to put groceries and other things into the household at all times that is when they start using the coupons totally.  So all I can say around here is that I can and will use the coupons for the household here.  The cards at the stores help out also along with the coupons to save money for the household.  The one store that I got the points for the gas already today and will let that build here also.  I can laugh sometimes since some days are really that cheap around here also and other days are not.  With that said around here it all evens out around here either way I go.  Also with December and January coming up around here I have to go that much cheaper during the year around here while I am at it all.  So now I will get it all done around here and on the cheap side around here also weather folks like it or not.  Since I have to get out at least twice this week around here totally I will put gas in the truck around here tomarrow.  Oh well at least I can get some things done around here without a problem at all at this point in time.  It comes with the part of being cheap around here for the household also.  Since I do have the nickles to take in around here it does help out around here without a problem at all for things like gas and other things. 

Realizing

Well now at the store today I did pick up things with the coupons and the stores card for under 50 dollars today here.  This is what I get for having a fist full of coupons to take with me at all times when I do go to the stores.  Then the dollar doubler also while I was at it for an extra 3 dollars in savings.  While I was up at the store I did run into the grandparents of the babes that I sit for and they about fell over when they seen that everything was on sale in the cart pluss the coupons that I was carying along with me.  Also with that said at least they know that I am the cheap one out of the bunch of course and will always be that dang cheap.  At this point in time knowing in what I can do for alot of things here at my place to save money here I will be doing alot more than what I have been for the house in the past 8 months here.  This is the good thing after surgery that I can do for the place here.  Also with this week coming it will go back to normal in what I have been doing for the place and save even more around here at the household.  There has to be a way to go that much cheaper for the household here besides in what I have been doing so far also here.  The weird part of it all is that it is all clicking in what I need to do to bring the bills down around here.  So now I will start using the coupons and several other things at the stores and turn off things alot more here in the household of course.  I think that is what is bothering more folks here about me in what I am doing so far here in myown place.  As I sit here and think of all of the things that I can be doing to be cheap around here and knowing that it does bother some people in what I do then I am ok with the idea of going that much cheaper for the household.  Pluss it is extra money that I can put down on other bills that need to be paid while I am at it all here also by keeping everything as low as possible.  Another thing is that some have not got in what I am doing here for the household nor will they if they do not ask me in what I do around here in the area of course.  So now at this point I got to looking at the bill here from the one store and now I know in what to do here to get the extra points also here for the gas.  They will only except 10 coupons per order and it is a hundred points extra for the order.  So I will split up the order from now on around here when I do have the coupons.  Also with that being said here there is still alot that I can do to be cheap for the household and for getting the gas for the truck from now on.  There is just alot of things that I think about and that I can do for the place.  So now at this point some are in trouble with me around here totally.  The other part is that I can go back to the store here and get more with the coupons. 

Shaking my head

Well I will say that the one doctor is mad at me for having the surgery on my neck here.  I could not believe it at all that he was totally mad at me about something that should have been done way before 5 weeks ago and to take a chanse on my health going further into a tail spin.  Finally the nurves that were totally spiked out with the 2 disks that were touching the spin have calmed down for me.  It has been along 5 weeks let me tell you around here of trying to get everything back into gear and doing more also.  Pluss I can hear better now since the surgery around here also.  All I can figure is that some doctors want some of us to suffer more than others in the area and I was not gonna have it anymore at all.  I knew in what was going down and with the depression on top of the pain I got tired of it and quick.  Now that most of the pain is gone out of my neck here and I am doing more around here to say the least I am feeling better over the whole thing.  So at this point in time I will roll with what is going on and go from there as of yesterday on around my place.  I have to at this point so now I may as well do the lifting while I am at it all also.  It makes me mad at time that I could do something at one point in time and after the accident here 11 months ago I can not do as much.  With alot of people I have tried to explain all of this and they do not get it at all about me here.  This is another reason I guess of why I have been going that much cheaper here in the household also.  So as I sit here and think of other ways that will start clicking on doing the cheap thing for the household here it always amazes me that some have cut me down for it totally in the area also.

Shaking my head

Well another day around here to go babysit and be stuck in the house again.  So now at this point in time I am somewhat stuck but not really to what some think that we are.  Since some lied to me on Tuesday guess what the maroon has been busted totally.  I may as well pick up and take the kids out and be done with it all around their place.  And yes I do have the car seats for the 2 girls and tough.  At this point in time since the Grandfather of the kids picked up the boys on Tuesday guess I can take the kids out.  Even the Grandfather thanked me for being outside to smoke instead of in the house.  I told him that I was very picky anyway about it and it got the kids outside with fresh air and he agreed since I knew where I am going to and being at is a non smoking household it is easier to just go outside.  With that said about things here the last babysitter did squat with the kids totally.  Since I do get the kids outside all 5 kids are happier and sleep well at night.  I will keep trying with the kids and go from there.  Also I will be cooking lunch on the cheap side today for them totally.  That and to try something different for lunch.  So now I will see if it is a huge hit in what I do for the place here and run with it.  At this point in time here I can careless in what the father of the kids say at all now to me I will just do and be done with it all.  Now to see what happends today and if I can controle my temper also.  One of these days the kids will see me blow gaskets to stick up for everyone period in their household.

Already plotting

Ok wo I am already plotting for the day around here this morning.  Since I have started in on the laundry around here this morning already for the day here, the dishes are next in line when the hot water tank comes back up in temp.  Also there are alot of things that are going to be done today here so the house is fairly clean by tomarrow anyway.  The nice part is that on some of it I can take my time around here on things that need to be done.  Now also since my place is really not that bad at all it is just the pick up and clean some of the areas that normally need to be clean and if you have a household that does not have the hot spots Bless ya on that one.  So now at this point in time here the place will be clean on the cheap for the day and that is how I like it also.  That is the nice thing about my Husband also is that he does not mind on how the place gets clean as long as it is clean.  So if I do it on the cheap side then it gets done on the cheap around here and I save money also that way.  That is the best part for the household.  So now at this point in time I am also paying from yesterday.  It takes alot out of me with the girls since they are so little still.  Either way it works in how I do things also around here.  In some things that go on it makes me wander about some folks around the area totally.  Since I do alot on the cheap side in my household and I am getting cheaper here also while I am at it all others could care less about running the household on the cheap side with 5 children in the household.  So I will show the Mom in how I have been doing things at my place here and afew other things to feed the children on a budget also here.  With tomarrow I will take some things over with me also for a cooked meal for lunch also.  I will try the one pot meal out tomarrow and see in how they like it then tell mom in how I did that part of it all.  So it is a trial run alot of the times.  Anyway I may as well get started with all of the housework here and go from there today.

Knowing now

Well I now know in what to do around here with the soon to be ex husband around where I work at.  I have my hands full enough with the 5 kids and do not need the extra B.S. from someone who has his head stuck up his toush also.  Today I caught him in a bold face lie around the house and I am done.  Now that I have the car seats for the girls all 6 of us are gone during the day for part of it for the play ground and other places than the house.  So now at this point in time here I will be cleaning myown household tomarrow here without a doubt.  I have no choise at this point in time but to get to the dishes and laundry around here I am almost out of shirts of course.  Never fails that I run out of things around here totally and now I have no choise but to do something about it.  So either way it will all get done around here weather I can or can not do it myself.  There is so much that I have slacked on in the past several days that it is not even funny anymore and that is because I have been hurting around here.  Also it all will be done on the cheap side of things weather some like it or not while I am at it all.  So the place will be clean here as of tomarrow also here and that is how I like it.  It will be nuts around here to say the least and that is ok.  Between the laundry and cleaning the kitchen also.  So now lets see what I can do here and be done with it tomarrow here. 

Let the fun begin

Well today I will be at work for most of the day here again.  So now some things will not get done today of course here and that is ok by me around here totally.  As I sit here at this point in time gearing up for the day of course it is not that bad at all around here once I look around.  I will get to the housework either when I get back or tomarrow around here without a problem at all.  At least there is always something to do around here to say the least.  Also since I am the cheap one here it will not be that bad today at all and with the coupons around the household to shock some folks with today here.  I am hoping that I get the car seats also so we can pick up and go today.  With that being said around here I do have a ton of coupons also for the day if we do get to go out for the day.  So now to really think about things here and start to wander with other things here in the household totally.  There is alot to do in my own household here and it will get done on the cheap side of course.  Since I did talk to my Husband last night he started laughing when I told him what I told some here also in that I did not want their service at all.  So after that I will hit some places today here and go from there either way of course.  Some will be shocked today of course where I will be at since the other baby sitter did not drive at all.  The funny part is that I can get all 5 of the kids into the truck and go if I have to around where I sit at also.  So now also I will be printing out more coupons for places and a quick lunch if need be for the kids totally.  It is one of the things that I have of course here at my place and we can split up what we all get here.  The funny part of it all is that I will show some folks in how it is done for the grocery bill along with other things in the household.  Now that I am dressed and ready to go here for the day it should not be that bad at all around here after this.  So lets see what the day brings here and go from there of course.

When pigs fly and hell freezes

I refuse to have Verizon for anything at all any more after I got told that the 100 decimals of noise on the line was in my head while I was at the trailer park.  After over 18 years at this point the box in front of Sabre Park has either been hit or band aided so dang bad that the phone service and Internet threw Verizon is useless by 6 years ago when I dropped them when the one guy said it was all in my head and went with Time Warner for everything in the trailer to the household here.  After I switched I knew it was not in the trailer at all with the phone period since the cable phone worked fine.  I have asked the guy that comes out once a month here on 82nd street here in the City of Niagara Falls what is worse the one here on the street or the one in front of Sabre Park all of them have said it is a toss up at this point and don't even bother if ya have a cell phone and cable modem pluss it is cheaper than what Verizon charges a month.  With Direct T.V. all I had to do is call the night before for a pay per view and it was on the next day off my cell phone.  Pretty bad when the dish system knows me by my cell phone than the house number more at the time for one pay per view a year.  The band aids out here on this end of town are the same as Sabre Parks Band Aids Period at this time and have been warned by the repair guys for Verizon since December when I moved in around here totally at the house.  Ok so it took Time Warner about 2 weeks to get in the service from the trailer and that is ok since I had the radio and paper with pens around here at the house.  So now at this point I did find what I was looking for with clear phone service threw the Cricket service here and the only complaint is once a week here when my Husband is up in Sudberry Ontario Canada here. 

As I sit here

Well as I sit here and plot out the day I have realized that I am paying for yesterday this morning of course with the 2 hr drive that took place.  All I can say is that at least I do not have to drive like that all of the time around here at all now.  So now at this point in time here when I was in doze mode lastnight around the household here I have relized alot of things that have happened over the past 18 years around here also and that in how many folks that will say that I am in the wrong in alot of things here in the area.  I look at it like this I got taught well by a woman that cared enough to at times let me hang myself to learn my lesson and taught me how to be cheaper than snot also for when I did get out on my own.  So now that the coupons are nothing new to me here for my place at all since I grew up with coupons in my Mothers household totally and taught that the grocery store is nothing but a huge math problem in front of me also.  With that being said here I also got taught that it is ok to speak my mind at times and be totally blunt about thing while I am at it all and let some things go with shaking my head around here at some things that go on.  Now at this point in time I have got the first phone call of the morning here and I will not call the person for anything at this time at all after I got dropped on the curb during the first week after I had surgery at all.  I am looking at it like this since I can do some things around the household at this point in time why should I call for help now when I got dropped on the curb from before from some folks and the ones that stuck by me around here were the ones that shocked me totally and still no matter in how depressed I was they still came over to help me out no matter.  At least I know now what is going on for my place and will do what I can when I can and if people do not like in what I do then don't come over at all.  I do try to pick up things and get something done during the day here and also try to get to everything while my Husband is gone what I do not get to oh well at this point.  Now I will get over to Rite Aid this week and match up my coupons with the sale ad that is out for them this week here and go from there totally.  I will get the bill from there as low as I can get it and really like that part of things here also.  That is the best part about things here at the household is that my Husband does not mind me using the coupons with the sales for the week or the month here in the household at all.  I will start trying my friends idea in how she potty trained her daughter here on the little one that needs to be trained also that I am sitting for.  I want to see if it works out.  I am not saying what it is at this point in time untill I find out first hand myself.  I will also ask the mother of the children about it also if it will be ok to try it out around here before I do.  I will say something tomarrow here and go from there.

Shaking my head

Well I am shaking my head yet again around here to say the least.  With the thunder and rain last night around here I was also up and down all night while I was at it.  More cheap thoughts came to mind while I was sleeping and someone had to drain the one window unit here also.  Since yesterday was just plain out nuts around here and under 200 dollars later some things have got done around here that some folks would never expect out of the household at all.  With that I will say more dinners for under 4 dollars for the week with the leftovers also.  While my Husband and I were at lunch yesterday 2 for the price of 1 person at a local place here in Niagara Falls it is well worth it for the both of us.  I told him what I wanted to do around here for a meal idea and he agreed to it that it was worth a try around here.  Since alot of what I do for the place is on the cheap side alot of the times here it is well worth the trouble to think of what to do next to be cheap on of course.  Now at this point in time I will have to make a trip over to either Aldi or Ollies this week so I can get some groceries around the household of course and I will take the gal that I babysit for also with me.  That is the best part around here is that I am the cheap one out of the bunch and can still have a good time on very little money around here also.  With alot of in what I have been doing it is common since things for the household and it finally clicked with alot of the things that I was trying to do for the place here yesterday.  So I hit the bargins up yesterday over at Walmart and afew other places of course and I had to laugh at some folks here that were shaking their heads at me for going on the cheap things in the cart.  Alot of the things in the cart were under $1.30 per item yesterday.  I look at it as it was some folks just do not care in what they spend in groceries at all and they do not shop for my place at all here nor do they eat in what I cook also.  So it pays to be cheaper than snot in my household in many ways here so I can do other things of course and go from there.  Now I can say that since it has started clicking with being that much cheaper around here during the week here some folks are going to be pretty mad in what I will be doing for the place without a problem at all here.  When some folks figure that it is not ok to streach the budget out to the max in some households it is ok also with some of us around.

Shaking my head

Well yesterday was a long day for me totally keeping up with 5 kids in one household.  The kids are and were pretty good for me yesterday to say the least.  So here I am looking at my place and will start cleaning around here this morning since I came home totally sat down and did nothing.  First day blues as I call it for going back to work around here.  Anyway at least I can take breaks today while I am cleaning my own place and be done with it.  So now I will see what I can get done early this morning just so I can take it easy this afternoon here for the household.  Also I can keep an eye out for the one window unit that I have to drain on a constant 15-30 minuts around here to keep the floor cool here.  Yesterday it went up to 85 on both floors here and it was just nuts.  That is what I get for not draining it all.  So today it will be cooler here totally during the day here and it will be nice.  All of us were looking at eachother when one of the neighbors turned on the sprinkler for the lawn where I was at and said 5 dollars we go raid the poor guys water to keep cool.  We all started laughing and stayed put in the shade.  So now I know I will never listen to the father of the kids again when it is that hot.  I guess the one job that I had comes in handy at times.  So I will see in what I can do for Tuesday and go from there.  That is the nice part of things here and having the truck back here.  The father of the kids about freaked out when I said I will have the truck back by Saturday around here and this week was a fluke.  The guy is like you drive a pick up truck and you're short.  Well you have to watch us little gals around here totally.

Waiting and thinking

Well I am waiting for a phone call and thinking while I am at it today.  Since the door ways and the windows are blocked up around here it keeps it much cooler here in the household.  And yes I started the one window unit back up on the main floor at 3:30 this morning.  With it being 80 on the main floor here that early/late I figured to start the unit up and give it a chance to catch up to cool the place off also.  Also I will be getting water out of the one unit here so I can water the plants for free also off of the one window unit here on the main floor.  When I drain the window unit I put it into a bucket by the door in the kitchen so all I have water for outside many days around here.  The funny part about it all is that I can get at least a full 5 gallon bucket full of water out of the window unit around here.  Anyway with today here I will be getting to the dishes and that is about it for the day here for the household.  And hope that I get called into work and that is it.  So as I sit here and think about in what I can do for the household that is cheap here it seems wierd.  I will also be leaving the one window unit on tonight here since it will be that stinking hot outside today.  Just so the unit can keep up around here and then some.  So now to really start thinking on alot of things around here thru the day and go from there totally.  Either way today it will be on the cheap side around here I hope and it will not be that bad at all here.  I will make sure of it today along with other things to get done also.  Now at this point it has made the news here in the area that almost everyone is sold out of the window units at this point and hoping that some places will get some stock back in.  So I got smart around here and got 2 window units early on here.  So now at this point in time since alot of folks will pay top dollar for window units here in the area to say the least.  I will not be one of the folks that will be in that one at all here in the area.  So now at this time I will be making it off of the 2 that are here and that is it for the place.  I will have my husband play switch with the both prortable units when he gets home this weekend here.  Since the little one does better up stairs and the bigger one does better down on the main floor to keep things cool enough around here.  Now that I can climb the stairs it is not that bad at all here and will drain the one every hour or so up stairs once they get into place here.

Long couple of days

Well it will be a long next couple of days around the house here.  With the heat and humidity the poor room unit can hardly keep up at this point in time and it has not even hit 9 am around here as of yet.  Now I will do all that I can to help keep the household fairly cool of course and it will be hard for the next several days here also.  So now at this point in time there some ways that I can do all of this and still keep cool here in the household.  Since I have at least 3 loads of laundry that I have been ignoring around here to say the least the racks can go up here in the house and I can dry the loads in the house and have the one unit hit the clean laundry here and it will make things cooler and run the one fan out here in the living room of course.  Anyway at least I am thinking around here to say the least on what I can do to be cheap about all of this here in the household.  Since it is Summer around the area here I refuse to run the dryer here in the household totally even with the window units going at this point in time.  There are some perks of being cheap around the household in nomatter what you do.  With that said here there are many things that can be done here for the household that are on the cheap side of things.  I will turn off the computer and the T.V. here shortly to save on the cool air and the power bill also here for the household.  Another thing is that alot of things throw out heat that is not needed here at all that will now be used at all.  My one Grandmother just about freaked out when I said that I have doors closed on the main floor and curtins hung up all over the place to help keep the power bill lower here.  Pluss I am dragging out one of the crock pots to cook in this weekend also because I do not want the extra heat in the house here at all.  What is nice about alot of things is that I am here alone in the house at this point in time here also.  So now to really take it easy here for the next couple of days here and see where I end up since my place is clean.  I did get alot done yesterday for the place and it is not that bad around here.  Ok I am off untill later tonight here and lets see what I can do for the day here.

Shaking my head

Well with the hot weather here in the Western NY area it is hard enough to keep the house cool during the day.  The next several days are going to be worse around here totally.  It got up to 81 here in the house and I know it will be worse tomarrow here with it being over 90 outside.  Oh well at least I can do some things around here that can keep the household cool to say the least.  Anyway I can say that I was right on some things around the household in saying that my cat was totally lazy about the cat box here.  With the one down stairs I got her to use that one also for the household and to save myself from afew other cleaning projects around here.  Now at this point I got the household pretty much cleaned up yesterday even though there is more to do around here without a problem at all.  I do what I can during the day and pay for it the next day as normal.  The joys of having housework is all I can say here.  So now I will see what I can do for today and go from there of course.  It is one of the things of plotting out the day and see what gets done for the household.

Laughing now

Well I am still laughing over yesterday around here this morning.  Ok so I got a load of coupons yet again around here and my poor Husband was madder than a wet cat on a hot tin roof also.  I have noticed at places like Kmart here that what is a huge seller gets discontinued all of the time and theres nothing that none of us can do at all.  Pluss you do not run a sale on the discontinued item at all in my eyes.  So 2 35 packs of water and that is all I could get out of the one store and now I will be back over to the one dollar store to get the water also in the area.  At this point in time since my Husband threw a curve ball at the corporate offices they gave us a 10 dollars off of a 50 dollar bill.  That is not including the $1.50 coupon on other needs, $2.50 off of pet supplies, and another 10 dollars off of a 100 dollar bill at the checkout lanes.  Now of course there are other coupons that I can throw into the mix while I am at it all around here.  That is what some do not understand at all about the whole thing at all about myself and the coupons at this point in time.  There is a system that can be done over it all to get the coupons on onto one bill of course.  My poor Husband knows in how I can get alot of it done around here and work the system on that part of things here for the household of course.  So I will still be saving up the points on the one card for the end of the year here and go from there while I am at it all and tag coupons with the order that I get in December also.  With some folks in the area they do not believe in the coupons along with other things here to save money on at the stores.  When the folks realize that I have a stack of coupons in my hand for the cashier they start hollering about in what I have and is it really necessary for me to use the coupons.  Untill they see my bill after I get done here then they realize in what I have done.  Also the coupons are always there to use at the stores anyway and may as well use them.  I still have 2 10% coupons for another store here in the area and I will use them in due time also here.

Wandering

Well now I am wandering around here once again.  Since we put in a change of address with one bill we never got another bill after that at all.  I guess some do not want to eat for the week at all in what we all owe around here for the one.  I found out last night when my Husband called to say he tried and could not get the cash on the card to cross the border at all and I could not help him what so ever at that point.  Well now back to worrying about things yet again around here and knowing that it will not help at all it stinks pluss painfull on my part.  All I can do is shake my head and think of what else I can do around here to get things paid and done with around here again bill or no bill on it.  So at this point it is something to think over and take it from there totally.  As I sit here so far this morning and have been thinking it seems wierd that some things totally have got out of controle at this point in time and I have not said much about it at all.  I have been keeping it in since some of the people I know pretty much blab to others in what I say and I noticed that years ago here.  The only reason why I know this is because I had said something that was off the wall and it got around totally.  Knowing I have really nobody to talk to that I can trust in where I am at this point in time here it is ok since I still have paper and pen to put things down to get answers on at this point.  I also noticed that I have kept up with the fugal/cheapness here and started cutting more around here in the house compaired to the trailer at this point in time.  Since 3 of the bills have gone that much lower since we moved out of the trailer it is a good thing totally.  It always amazes me in what happends in how the bills drop or go up when you move to a new spot.  It is all over the place though.  I guess that the frugal/cheapness will stick around alot longer than some folks realized with my household at this point in time.  So I will be cutting on the budget that much more around here in the household and I will find the ways to do all of this without a porblem at all.

Long day again

Well it has been along day around here again.  At least I did get some things done around here today for some of the chore's.  I do what I can around the household here and that is all.  So at this point this afternoon I will be hunting down coupons and free stuff on the net and see what I can get now.  Well at least I can save some more money in the household here on my time while I am hunting down things on the net here.  The mail lady does not seem to mind delivering free samples and coupons to me at all and the poor woman is probably wandering where I am finding the things also.  So now at this point in time also all heck broke loose in the neighborhood with the cops looking for a kid this morning.  I had to tell the bird that the guys were not coming to get him at all and he was fine in the house at the time.  This is what happends when you rescue birds out of a police raid in another area.  It was just plain out nuts around here with 8 squad cars on the block.  So all of us will read about it tomarrow in the paper if it hits the blotter here.  Anyway here it is one of the days that I can shake my head around here with some folks and be done with it.  It takes all kinds to make a neighborhood and ya gotta love it around here.  Also I got a walk in today around here and got 10 cents coming back to the house while I was at it.  This is what happends when I can get out for walks here I just can not help but to pick up the cans for the nickles it is a force of habbit with me.  At this point in time around here it gives me something to do other than look for free stuff and coupons with everything off in the house except the raido.  So now at least I can do things alot cheaper here to say the least and being able to here without a fight from my Husband at all in what I do and find.  All he does is laugh about it when I have a really good day at the grocery store or the discount stores and jokes how much this time around.  So it is not to bad when I get the huge pile of coupons off the bills at all now.  At this point I wander in what sites I can hit up today without problems here and see what I can find.  I will let you know later here.

Shaking my head

Well after yesterday I can really shake my head around here and be done with some folks totally here in the area.  After someone calls themselves broke and does nothing to help themselves out at all I have no pitty for that person anymore.  I am looking at it as the cut down 16 years ago about the sales and coupons over at the store that we were all at and I totally lost recpect then and there for some people in the area here.  With that said here I kept up with the sales and coupons for the household and will get worse on it from now on also just to prove a point around here.  That also goes along with what I am doing around the place to cut the costs for everything else here in the place.  As of lastnight around here I have set alot of goals for what I want to do for the house here and I will get it all done around the place here without a problem at all here.  I have also realized that with the loss of recpect here of some people that I get that much cheaper for the household while I am at it all here.  It is a wierd quirk that I have and will always have I guess.  It also works around here for myself and my Husband that I am going that much cheaper around the household.  The previous owners of the house stopped by lastnight to see the house and how I set up things around here also.  Their youngest son was impressed that it looked good with what I have in the household here.  So again I got asked in what I was doing to cut the costs here and I wrote down and told them in what I did to cut the costs here at the household.  Since I have been using less on the cleaners and several other things here it works out for the best around here also.  Also I let them walk around the household here and they were shocked in what I have done for the place.  They were also shocked in the portable window unit for the a/c sitting in the kitchen.  I told them that I run 2 of the units and it cools off the house just fine.  Their son stiffled a giggle when I told them that with the 2 units going it is only about 27- 35 dollars a month extra here and we turn them off at night.  The highest bill we have had was 72 dollars and that was last month here and it was not that bad at all for the place.  I guess this is what I get for being either the tight wad or that dang cheap about things here in the household.  With that being said they did see the hodge podge under the kitchen sink here in the house and started laughing and asked where I got some of it and I told them where.

Shaking my head now

Well at least I know that some folks are alive and well around here totally including myself around here without a problem at all.  Some still swear that my Husband is gonna die here within like the next couple of months here.  At least I can laugh about it all around here now when some can say that someone is going to kick the bucket without proof nor back up in the area.  Oh well life goes on around here either way to say the least and I have always made it with or without people in my life here.  I guess this is another reason in why I went to the cheap side to make it on my own without the help from some people that I know.  Pluss I would never hear the end of it if I barrow money off my family nomatter in what I do so I never bothered at all with that part.  Also alot of the cheap side or the frugal side is working in with what you have in what ever household that you have.  That and working in what you have in the place that you are at.  With that said I will say it I have worked below my means for years and do not care in how rough the sofa looks like to other folks that come over or sees thru the windows in what I have in the household at all.  This is why they make covers or sheets for things like that.  WIth alot of what I have done around the household is to ask myself in do I really need something and if not at that time here I do not get the item at all.  If I can not afford an item also I will save up for it and after that if I want it fine if not then fine.  I know some folks that just go out and spend also in the area nomatter what the cost is to them totally. 

As I sit here

Well I am sitting here plotting for the day around here and I will see what I can get done for the day around the household.  It is one of the days here that I finally got up somewhat early also.  With alot of things I would rather get done early and out of the way here before the afternoon hits of course and that is how I got use to everything here.  So as the washer has been started yet again around here for the day all I can really do is put up with some things that need to be done anyway around here of course.  It always amazes me in how quickly that the laundry always piles up here in the household on me at times.  Since I still have maybe a handful of loads to get done in the basement after 7 months it is not that bad at all around here after everything that I have tried to get done before and after the surgery around the house here.  And thank goodness one window has been left open in the basement to let it air out and get the air moving yet again here.  So now with that being done for the place here and I will get at least 2 racks outside myself here once again so I can hang some of the stuff outside to dry here it will not be to bad at all if I can get alot of it done here today.  As I said it is all in how you use the drying racks here to dry the laundry.  I will be posting pictures of this here this afternoon to show in how I do all of it here.  Sometimes pictures help out better than saying it totally in words.  With that being said here I will take pictures with in how I do it all step by step here and it is an easy way of doing.  In how I load up the racks here they still come out with about 40 lbs of dry laundry by the time I am done loading the rack here.  Everything still drys without a problem at all out side.  Even down in the basement I do not have a problem in how I hang things on the rack.  This winter I am armed with the 2 window units since they are dehumidifiers also for the basement here to keep things dry also.  So now at this point in time I will have the room to get things done here this winter without a problem at all and like it like that.  Now I know why I said no to some people to move into the house with us around here in January also.  With alot of what has happened here so far I did not need the extra stress at all for alot of things that came with letting the 3 people move in.  Knowing that I would have been worked like a dog here with what they did not want to do or bother to do I am better off in not having anyone here at all at this point in time.  That goes along with some other things also that I had to worry about along with it all out of one person.  I guess this is what some did not understand at all here about me also and that it is either my way or there is the door on the being cheaper than snot for the household.  Since I hang the laundry here at the household, use less of the cleaners, and turn things off during the day here they did not like in how I worked the household in that way here.  Since I am pretty much a hard toush on some things here in my own house here I have that right just like when people say not to smoke in their household and people respect that also.  My whole thing is the 3 that wanted to move in would stay up untill 3 am and do not have a problem with it at all and do what they want like watch T.V. and other things instead of looking for a job at that point in time also.  So now that one power bill was 72 dollars and that is the highest bill that I have had in the 7 months that I have been here it is not to bad at all.

Shaking my head

Well I am just worn out in what I did this morning around here.  I did some running this morning and picked up 3 30 packs of water here for the household totally.  I have not got to the other part of the housework as of yet niether for the day and it can wait untill tomarrow.  Some days are like this to where I will try to do and it just does not work the way I want it to at all for some things here in the household.  Other than that I did not really spend at all today for the household at all and it is a good thing.  Now for tomarrow I will get the boxed mac and cheese that is on sale at one of the stores for 50 cents a box and there will be enough meals to last for most of the month around here off of 20 boxes of that.  With that said there is ham and a few other things that I can put with the mac and cheese here in the household totally for cheap meals.  Now if I could just keep a good mind frame after the other day it would be ok.  With today I had and still have a good mind frame for to go cheaper here in the household.  I have to remember to keep my happy place around here and where I want to be at next year around here and I am ok.  At this point in time I am doing everything that I can to get there by going cheaper for the household.  I will not say that it was easy over the years when I began all of this at all.  I am still learning and trying new things for the house here.  It has worked so far and I have been doing and thinking more in how I want to do things also around here to go that much cheaper.  I can laugh about some things that are done around here and they have came a force of habbit with me also during the week.  Little things like turning off things during the day around the household here and the few blow ups in the kitchen while I was cooking also.  At least there are some things that I can laugh about what has happened.

Still plotting

Well I am still plotting around here to say the least for the cleaning.  With being tired on top of it we will see in how much I really get done around here today.  So now at least I got some things done that I did not expect to do this morning.  Oh well at least all the functions are coming back on me now.  Now just to stay awake long enough to get some things done around here for the housework.  With that said I am happy that I got alot of the laundry done this weekend here and hung out side and folded already here.  Some of the neighbors are mad that I put the drying racks out side over the weekend here for to dry the laundry.  I just can not see using the dryer at all at this point when there was a nice breeze outside to dry the laundry that much quicker here.  I was reading last night on a site here with someone who uses nothing but drying racks at her place to dry her laundry.  I had started hanging laundry years ago at the trailer since I did not have a dryer at all 18 years ago.  So as the years went by since I came up to NY State here I started using the lines once again that were in the trailer and ended up getting 2 drying racks at first in Augest for the place.  Then I added the 3rd drying rack about 2 months later at the trailer.  It all worked except for the big towels and afew other things for the trailer at the time.  Now I have a total of 6 drying racks since I do have the room around here in the house and it works great for still almost everything that I need them for.  Pluss I have lines up in the basement for sheets and afew other things also.  Between the 6 drying racks and the lines I have saved over 150 dollars on the power bill already per month around here and that is how I like it.  I guess this is why the one neighbor is mad at me for is that the power bill over here is alot less than their place at this point in time.  That is even with the 2 window units around here going also.  Anyway I am still going to get the dishes first around here and go from there for today when I get to them.  So I will see what happends for the day and go from there.

Plotting

Well now I can really start plotting around here for this week and see what happens also in where I end up around here.  Tonight is a total bust on trying to get any thing done around here and that is ok.  What my Husband told me before he left tonight is ya get done what ya get done around the house and do not worry about it at this point in time.  After a rough 2 weeks around here in trying to get things done and can not get it done because of the surgery here.  So here I am plotting on what to tackle first here in the house and the kitchen is totally overruling around here at this point in time.  It is always nice to know that things will be there in the morning around here and I can keep busy around the household.  As I look around here and see that the house is not that bad around here at all compaired to some places that I know at this point.  At least I can say it is mainly clean around here except the dishes around here.  Then again it is always like this on a Sunday night here and I should be use to it at this point here.  As my one Niece always said that I was hard headed about some things and she is right about that part of it all.  After the car accident I got pretty hard on myself around the trailer and the house here becuase I can only do so much to say the least.  With some things around here I have kept up with it around here.  That is what I do not get at all around here is that I have been moving slower than ever around the house.  Knowing that I just had surgery here does not help out at all also while I am at it here.  So here I have to at least keep trying things and go from there from now on for the place.  What else can I do around here totally.  At this point I have new hope again on things here for the house and I will work on that also this week with or without help.  It has came to the point of this is what I expect and I will keep picking up the pieces like I normally do and figure out a way of doing things better around here. 

Just wandering still

Well I am still wandering around here if I am still doing the right thing by going the cheaper way around here totally.  I will do what I can to get thru the rough spot around here and go from there.  It is one of them days of the flip flop that I end up doing at times.  Maybe I just need an extra lift that I am doing the right thing for the place now and it will be ok in what I do also and the extra thanks from some in the household here.  Or it is just one of them afternoons around here for myself also.  So with tomarrow coming up I will plot out the week around here again and see where I end up for the week also here.  Also I will see if I can go for the most part without some things here in the household also from now on without my Husband here while I am at it all also.  That may help with feeling down about what I am trying to do also here for the household.  Or I may just need a picker up as I call them around here to feel like I am more usefull also.  So now that I have the main bulk of the laundry done down in the basement here I feel better about that part of things here and I can throw in a load of laundry here and there during the week from now on.  I have a long road ahead of me at this point with healing still and I know this totally.  Since it has been 2 weeks as of tomarrow from the surgery and not being able to do much here after that and for about 10 months before that part it has been hard on myself of not being able to just get up and do around here totally.  Pluss I have to watch pretty close with my neck at this point just so I do not undo what the doctor just did to help me out.  So now at this point I will have something every day to do around here from now on so I can get at least something done here and feel usefull totally around here.  It is one of the things here that I have to do so I can try to get back on my feet and get things done around here then try to go all day long after awhile here.  Anyway now at this point there is alot of things that I want to do and it will get done here soon enough. 

A good thing

Well it is a good thing that some places are still within walking distance from the household also.  Also they have cheap bread also where I walked to for the 2nd kitchen.  Pluss there are some folks that I do like to see at different places that work there.  It makes it all nice during the day that I can get out and see some folks in the area here and we all compair notes on being cheaper than snot also.  There are times that all of us need to get together and just talk also around the area.  Then this way we all know that we are on track with some things and where we all want to be at in life no matter what others say about it all  in what we do around some houses.  So now I have new hope around the household again here on what I want to do and alot I have to figure out still no matter in what I do.  At this point in time here at least I can say that there is alot of room to grow and get that much cheaper for the household and still alot of reading to do from alot of other sites to see if things will work for myself and the household.  As I say I will try something for a week and if it does not work out then I drop what is not working for the place.  So at this point in time I know in what I have to really do around here to get everything lower here and it will be done.  The next several days here are kind of hard with the window units going to cool off the main floor here and that is ok since I do not watch T.V. at all hardly during the day anymore and I can stay off the computer while I am at it all for the balance of it.  The funny thing is that my Husband does not realize in what I do all week untill I am laid up for some reason around here at the house.  I still had everything turned off during the week while he was gone also for the place.  It seems strange that I could careless in some things around here totally.  If it was up to me I would not have the cable for the T.V. at all around here.  I would not even have the T.V. even here once I think of it all around here.  That is how I am now.  So besides the news casters saying this is how you can cut your power bill and only toughed on the bare necessities on it totally I started rolling my eyes on what they were saying in the one segment Monday thru Friday around here.  I found myself screaming at the T.V. that morning around here.  I know what I do for the household here to cut the power bill down to about 60 dollars a month around here.  It is knowing when the peak hours are during the day and when the off peak hours go on.  So at this point I have not really ran the dryer at all for what we have except for maybe 20 minuts today to defur some blankets that got washed and dryed out side here yesterday.  Also since I turn off alot of things during the week around here it also helps with the power bill for the place.  I have been doing this for years at this point and it did not matter over at the trailer in what I did to cut the power bill down at all it was still up there thru the roof.  It would get down to 90 dollars and no less in what I did during the day now looking at the house in what I still do from the trailer except I have more room to hang the towels and a few other things here other than that the same as what I was doing in the trailer to the house the bill has dropped below 60 dollars a month around here.  When the girl was saying turn up the A/C units to 80 and acouple of other things to save money on I started laughing and then the talking back to the T.V. around here totally.  Well what they all forgot was that the computers, T.V.'s, and dryers are the worst at sucking the power bill down the tubes here.

Shaking my head

Well I guess that I can shake my head around here after I found another pile of laundry that I found that needs to be washed around here.  So as I sit here and wait for the washer to stop so I can rerun the load back thru around here I guess it is not that bad around the household today.  Since I have been doing alot of the small things around the household to get alot of the things done it has been working better than when I could do everything in one day around here totally before the accident.  With the bulk of the dishes done and several loads that have been out and folded at this point in time it will work around here totally for me and now to just bag and tag the floors again around here along with some other things today I should be ok for tomarrow to just sit around without a problem at all.  As I sit here and think about all the things that need to be done around here totally and that can be done on the very cheap side of things it is not that bad except trying to get things done is the bad part of it all.  I have noticed that I get tired easier than what I did from before the surgery to after around here.  I guess that is why I do not mind so much about not driving around here at all.  I am not totally stuck at home also while I am at it all since I can still walk to places.  With that said it has helped me to get out side more and since I do not go out shopping around here hardly on the walks it works out for the best around here totally.  So I am saving money on that end of things around here once everyone thinks about it.  Also I have noticed that I can make due in what I have for the household after the walks while I am at it here.  Anyway now that my Husband is washing the poor dog at this point in time it works out for the best with me since I do not have to do that part also for the household.  Now to get the move on around here so I can get more done for the household today.

Was wandering here

Well I was wandering about today with the doctors office.  I came out smelling like a rose this afternoon from that office and liked it.  What gets to me the most is that some have not understood that I needed help with some things around here totally and have blew me off around here also.  So now after today here I can pretty do as I please within reason again and if I take my time on it I should be ok for the place.  Also now I will be doing some things that others did not expect me to do from now on for the place here that are on the cheap side of everything from now on.  With alot of the things that I have learned in the past 10 days around here I am ok with totally now.  So the dishes will be done around here by tomarrow afternoon along with acouple of loads of laundry also here and I will be spent for the day totally yet again.  It will be a long road to get back on my feet and I know this without a problem at all.  So others just have to realize this out of me also in that it will take awhile.  While some are still down at the mountian it is a good place at this poitn for them at this point after this go around in how I look at it.  Along with the 10 days of hardly being able to do things here at my place and I was told to call if I needed anything here so I did and got totally blew off also I have came to the point of I will do for myself and my household and when they need something my answer is no from now on with some folks.  So now I will do what I can for tomarrow and be done with alot of things for the chore's here at the house.  Even some basics are big chore's at this point in time here.  So now other things are not at all that huge of a deal around here.  Like going cheaper is not that big of a deal now.  I have figured out that by sitting on my toush that I can do things on the very cheap and still think of other things that I can do for the place here that are even cheaper also while I am at it all.  So at this point even my gas bill for the truck has went down totally in the past 10 days also one I think about it around here.  Also that will be going down even further here soon.  I hardly go anywhere at this point and why should I start now around here in how I am looking at it all.

Plotting again

Well I am plotting for the day here and it may not be a good thing on some folks around me at all.  Like it really matters at this point in time since nobody has been over in 2 days here.  So I guess that I will be taking a walk today and taking a roll bag with me to lug back some things that are needed once again for the household here.  Or it will wait around here either way in my eyes.  At least I can still get things done around here and not worry about it all.  Also I will be somewhat cleaning today while I am at it all for the day just so I do not have to hear it out of some folks that I did not do anything while some were gone.  What makes me madder than ever is when some folks take jabs at me knowing that I still can not do much around the household at all and they expect me to go back to normal within a week after getting bones fused in my neck here.  So at this point in time I guess I will have to do more since some are lazy in the household here or just ignore in what really needs to be done around here to keep it all going.  Also there are inspectors from the City of Niagara Falls running around the area doing spot inspections.  I started laughing about it since the one drying rack sits infront of the one door here while it is full of wet laundry.  It is the perfect spot since it is out of the way and I will not trip over it.  Also I can not get the front door open to save myself at this point in time since I do not have the strangth to fight the door open after the surgery and new carpet at the one door here.  As I say if some do not like in what I can or can not do at this point in time tough cookies on them now.  That was part of the laughture yesterday morning between us neighbors.  Another thing is for the household is that I am doing what I can here to keep it all going at this point in time.  I guess this is what really gets some folks mad at me since I have been going cheaper and still doing that part since I have had the surgery also for the house.  It gives me something to do to keep my mind off the pain alot of the times also.  So while I have figured out ways to keep up the cheapness here and seeing more things that I can cut on while I am at it all.  The funny thing about all of this is that I have been thinking about the things that are more expensive here that I have and the cheaper things will work just as well for what I do around the house here also.  Maybe that is what some are scared of about me also is that I just do not care in what all they do for their own place and I will only controle my own place and what I get also for the household.  I know that other power bills scare me at all times in how much they are in the neighborhood.  So at this point I will keep doing what I have been by turning off things and shopping smarter around my place here from last week on around here.  The turning things off has been going on for about 2 years now and I will keep that part going also from the trailer to the household here.  Also I have kept stocked up on alot of things here in the house and that will never change at all.  Once something that is needed for the household and it is on sale at the stores then I pick it up.  This is what some do not agree with in what I do for that part of things at all.  It is ok that some do not agree that is what makes the world spin also.  So now at this point I better get a move on so things can get done around the household.

Thinking way to much

Well I am thinking way to much again around the household.  With that being said I have been finding the answers to questions that I already knew about and the why at this point in time.  This is what happends when I have to much time on my hands at this point in time here.  While I was mopping the kitchen floor it all hit me around here of the why's in alot of things that have been going on around here totally.  I have came to the fact of I have been droped on the curb so many times at this point that it does not matter in how cheap nor blunt that I am from now on from today forward.  Now I refuse to hardly call anyone for help no matter in how much that I have to do around the household here at least I know that I will be doing alot more on my own here as of today also.  I am not suprized in what has happened at all at this point in time here.  So now I can say that I have been also pretty much thinking of other things here in what I can do to get that much cheaper while I am at it all.  I have stopped drinking totally around the household here after the surgery that I had last week and I have noticed that I have been trying to sleep more around here along with other things that I have been doing also.  Now I know why that I have been keeping to myself more in the past 2 years also while I have been at it all from the trailer to the house.  I have figured out that it does not bother me to be totally alone most of the time and that I like it like this also.  I can not get blamed for things as much if I am out there in the area and what people say about me is on them at this point in time also here. 

Wandering

Well I am still wandering around here if I am still doing the right thing for the household.  I have been fairly cheap to say the least in the past week here and have gone cheaper without a problem at all.  I have also figured out how to get some things done also without help from anyone while I am at it all here in the past week and almost a day here.  It has been hard staying down once I think of it around here also since the neck surgery here.  So now I will do what I can when I can just so I get some things done around the household here.  I guess this is why I have been going cheaper here for the household.  With some folks they are amazed in what I have been doing around here with just the coupons on Friday and Sunday while they were with me at the store.  Even though I can not pick up everything in the stores as of yet around here and this is why I need the help still around here to help me lift.  So after the 10% on Friday at the one store off the bill then to turn around and have the 15% on Sunday here it came out to my advantage totally for the house here.  With that I did get everything stocked up for the 2nd kitchen on Sunday around here and my Husband loved it with the 15% discount for the store.  Also I have 30 cents off gas at the one station here in the area while I was at it.  With the water needed for the household and some other things also while we were at it.  With that being said here there are things that are totally stocked up here at the household and that saves the place money since I do not have to run out every day or every week for food and other things for the household.  Also once I can get something on sale with a coupon it is even better on myself around here with the money that is saved.  I guess this is what makes some folks mad at me totally in how I do things for the household.  With alot of what I do for the household it is not to bad for the bills also here.  This is why I do hang the laundry and cut alot of the power off during the day around here also.  So if that is a bad influence on some folks so be it around here now.  The funny thing is now that I have been belittled for going that much cheaper from some people around the area at this point.  I am not always yelling that I am broke like the ones who love to cut others down for going that much cheaper for their own household.

Gonna try

Well today I am gonna try to get some of the housework done here.  It sounds stupid I know but after a week after surgery here on my neck I am tired of doing almost nothing anyway here for the house.  The nice thing around here is that I can take my time without a problem at all and go from there.  Ok so I still have some pain and that is ok and at least I know when to sit down and rest also around the place because of the pain.  Anyway I found a blubber on my order yesterday from Ollie's and got it fixed.  A $79 dollar candy bar I do not think so, unless I get a naked maid for the house here for the next week over it.  So now I can say that everything is stocked up and under 200 dollars at this point in time around the house here and it is a good thing.  With the coupons and several other things for the bill that I have here it was and still is nice.  I'm just mad that I could not use a double coupon in some places this weekend at all.  So now I will say that I mopped the floor with some people this weekend totally with the coupons at some places it is all good.  Also I will be streaching out alot of the stuff that is here anyway and that is another good thing about the household here is that nobody hollers about in what I do at all.  I think that is the best part about the whole thing around the house here is that I can still cut on the budget here without a problem at all and make it work to my advantage totally.  The funny part is that my power bill is still fairly low for the house here even with the 2 room units going to keep the place cool enough to sleep and work in also.  It is one of the things that I can say that it does take work around here to cut the power bill down.  At this point in time it is not hard at all since I am sleeping most of the time anyway around the house here so I can cut the power off almost totally here and not even think of it at all.  My poor Husband has figured it all out with in what I am doing for the house here is that I am going cheaper at this point in the choise that I have made here after a week ago with the surgery and does not mind it at all in what I am doing.  Since I have not done much this past week around here anyway the poor man started shaking his head and asked what I did for most of the week.  I told him sleep over ruled everything and that is what I have done.  So that is why we have had less going out to the curb for this week except for the recycle bin here with the cardboard and plastic.  It all works well and I do not fill up the trash bags as fast as others in the neighborhood here.  So now I will say that since I have been doing very good after this past week around here and I will start doing things here in the house this week for cleaning and several other things also.  Some of us got to laughing around here yesterday after everything that went down during the day here and that I am the queen of the cheap in my household.  Also I got asked on Friday in how I did everything and got to show some people in what I have done and will do for the house here to cut the costs and the person understood in what I have done and will be doing here.  With that said with today I will have most things turned off yet again since I am not so scared in bending over at all anymore here again.  Also I will be sleeping for part of the day here then I will clean for another part of the day while I am at it.  Since I can take my time around here for the most part here things will get done for the place without a problem at all.  It will just take me longer to get the things done.  Oh well I may as well lay down here get the nap out of the way then start in on the housework.

Still thinking

Well I am still thinking of what happened over yesterday here.  At this point in time here I can say that thank goodness I do not depend on some folks in the area at all still and maybe this is what is bothering me even more here.  I guess this is why the doctor told me to go ahead and walk when I feel like it around here and I still can not drive at all untill I can get back up to the doctors office again here this up coming week.  With that being said I walked to one of the places yesterday to pay a dang bill for the household here and took care of it myself without waiting around for people who promised some things to me around here and told me tough cookies here after it was all said and done.  So now at this point I could really careless in what the one couple says to me now since they are full of crud in my eyes now after this.  Yes I have needed some help and could not get it at all around here from the one couple so one of my girlfriends came over so I could stock up on the water and some soda again to drink around here.  Pluss not only that I had walked over to the stores and got to really thinking about what went on also.  All the one person had to do was bring it to the house and that is it.  I would have figured it out in how to get the stuff into the house after I got back here after everyone left.  Now that I can not even bother to trust some people at all in what they tell me I guess I am better off alone here in the house by myself away from some people here in the area.  Also here I am this morning the one couple has not even bothered to call me thru the week here to see in how I am doing once I think of it also here.  After all said and done here my one girlfriend basicly told me I have to go shopping with you more often to get the better deals around here.  We both started laughing at the one dollar store and the use of more coupons at that store it was all good.  After I got 20 dollars smacked off of the one stores bill and another 7 dollars off at the dollar store I must have done something right for myown household here totally within about 3 hours yesterday.  I figured since I was feeling pretty good yesterday I may as well get something done for the household also here and got it done in what I set out to do.  So now that I have some things done here in the household totally here, I will see what little things I can get done before some get home today and go from there.  Now I am just wandering in what some are and were thinking totally when they left me high and dry yesterday around here.  From now on I know what I have to do for myself and go from there to see what I can do and what I can not do.  What gets to me is that some have not seen me totally down around the household like I am now and they do not want to see me that down to where I can hardly do anything at all.  Maybe that is the problem around here is that some figure that I am going to be around forever and totally ignore the fact that I do need help at times around the house.  That is the best answer that I can come up with at this point in time with some people around the area that I thought were friends.  Or some just do not care in what is going on around with other people at all also is another reason that I have came up with.  Now knowing that I am on my own with some folks here I have came to the point of I am ok with it all also here.  I will not even bother the one couple at all anymore and go from there.  My answer will be no if they all need help from now on from me and tough cookies on their part from now on in my eyes.  That is all I can do at this point in time since I have 4 bones fused in my neck at this point and this is what I am recovering from around here.  I am lucky that I can move at this point in time and still alive from it all.

Tired now

Well I got another walk in today and got some shopping done also.  The poor gal that went with me around here today about flipped out since the one place I had coupons for and the next place the manager pulled out more coupons for me to use also.  So today was not to bad around here at all after all said and done.  With tonight I will be staying home around here and try to get some sleep here while I am at it all.  As I sit here and think of what some folks missed totally for part of the day since they refuse to help me at all now it is on them at this point in time now.  With the dollar store alone the gal that helped me out thanked me so much that I took her into the place today and she picked up some things that she needed for her place that she forgot about last week.  So it all turned out for the best either way that the both of us went this afternoon togeather here.  With some folks totally ignoring me around here and saying oh well we all have other things to do than worry about you here it says something to me totally here.  All I could do about it is get back out side and take another walk to clear my mind about it all here and what I should do about it all.  Even though some things turned out for the best today here I know on who I can count on totally around here from now on here at the house.  As some have told me today they better go shopping with me from now on after today since they found the better deals while with me today than they normally do on their own.  So here I am knowing that in what I do does work around here from now on and I have helped others also today it is all good in my eyes now here once again.  Also knowing that I am the cheap one out of the bunch helps out once I think of it all around here.  With that being said here I can say that I have drove out alot of the bargins today out of just 2 stores here that some were amazed in how I could keep going with the household here and be done with it.  Also the gal was impressed that I had the portable window units down stairs so I could stay on the main floor during the week here without to much worries that without my Husband here and not climb the stairs here.  So yes I was thinking of the safe part of doing things also for my own health and afew other things here totally.  This is why I have most of the house stocked up from coupons and sales that I have picked up along the way here and it has saved me more times than not also from running out and getting more right away.  With today it was a fluke with the bottled water and some soda around here.  So now that I know that some just do not want to learn at all from me nor be around me still to this day here it is ok at this point in time.  Now that I have stopped drinking also here at the household I will be putting that money away around here, since I have fixed the problem totally here in why I have been and continued to drink it is that much better around here.  The neighbors still do not see me out hardly at all unless I need to get things for the household and afew other things and they are amazed that I just do not care if I do or do not go out at all for the day. 

Shaking my head

Well I am shaking my head around here totally.  With some folks swearing oh just call us and we will bring out what ya need for the house.  They are not here at all with a phone call.  I got my mile walk in this morning and stopped for lunch out also while I was at it.  Life must go on with or without people around here helping me out around the house, that swore up and down they would help out.  So I pretty much knew that I had to do without some folks around here and I will hit up someone else to help me at the dollar store when they get here this afternoon totally.  I will say this about the whole thing of today is that I have been going at it all on the cheap for the household totally this week and that is how I like it.  I have also made some folks mad while I have been at it around here.  The power bill for 2 months here at the household came out to be $127.60 and that is with the 2 room a/c units going and about 7 loads in the dryer also.  I can laugh at this time here since I have done most of the cutting myself here for the power bill to say the least.  I do what I can for the week while I am alone and that helps out alot for the household.  I guess this is what some people do not understand at all here in what I am doing.  Since I do have the power strips for most of the electronics and other things for the household to turn everything off during the day here it works out fairly well on my part.  I also turn things off at the peak hours also for the power company to freak out on here at the household.  I figure why bother with some things that suck the power up and cause a huge bill for the place totally.  I guess this is why I have the drying racks in place of the dryer for laundry days and still turn off things that are not needed at all.  With this week I have learned alot here in the household also while I have been at it.  In what I have learned so far is that it is ok to let the house work pretty much fall to the side and sleep for most of the day here along with that I have not been drinking to cut the pain also here.  That pretty much intertwines with the folks that have been ignoring me here saying that oh we will be over if and when you need anything when they could care less about if I am totally out of something or need something done here also.  And fair is fair when they need me from now on I will say no from now on to prove a point that what is good for one then it is good for the other also in other folks books totally.  So now that I have learned also is that I can not depend on some people nomatter what still here and I have to do on my own for the place and myself totally without questions at all.  Again I was asked today in how I was going to manage the next several weeks from the neck surgery here and I told people that I can manage but very slowly to get things done around here also.  I do what I can when I can and that is all I can do to help myself and the household at this point in time.  With alot of the housework here it can wait untill I have the help to get it all done for the weekend here.  That is the honest truth about it.  Now also for some of the stuff I have to wait untill my Husband comes home to help me out on here.  So some of the stuff I have to wait on nomatter what I do for the place and trust me I am one of the hard butts on keeping some things clean for the household totally.  I will get to the crummy bathroom this next week I hope and see what I can do for that room since some do not like to clean that room them selves at all.  And yes that will be done on the cheap side also while I am at it.  This is why I picked up and went this morning knowing that some just do not care in what is falling apart here in the household at all.  As I told someone yesterday over the phone the one doctor did not tell me I could not walk at all here and just not to drive nor get in the car for the week.  We both started laughing and took it from there.  So when you are down and out do not wait on anyone around to start to help when you ask them to.
