Shaking my head

Well yesterday I had over 60 dollars worth of coupons for the store in the dry bulk goods to keep my own house stocked up for sure here.  And I have finally figured out why my one aunt has been madder than a wet cat about me being in town.  Alot of what is going down is on her totally and not on me since I make no bones about what is going on and still do not like her after all these years.  The funny part about the whole thing is that I have not done what she says that I am supposedly doing and since all of the waitstaff here at the TA stop know me pretty well now after about 2 weeks here it is all making since to me to say the least.  Also I have learned that when I get out of the house I am a better person for it all while I am at it and my grandmother does not mind one bit since I am working here.  Now at this point in time here since I have put it all togeather in alot of the whys some are being just totally nasty is because I have out did my aunt and her mouching kids also in the past 18 pluss years.  That is the only thing that I can come up with at this point since I have shown my grandmother in how much NY State is compaired to here in Illinois also.  So I have been stocking up on alot of things while I have been here and some do not understand this at all out of myself at all.  With all of the coupons and sales here it works out for the best on my part either way that I go and my husband does not mind it at all in what I have been doing at this point also.  With that said here I will say that some want to complain on the price of food here they have not seen in what I have gone thru at all in the past almost 19 years and they never will if I have my way.  With alot of things that have been going down at this point in time here while I have been in now it is not to cool at all since I figured as much that things would never change at all with some people.  Now I will do what I have to at my own house to get that much cheaper and do not mind it at all.  That is the best part about all of this here and part of the reason of why I came down also other than to prove the point of my aunt is just plain out there.  So now since I have not asked for anything at all and that is how I like it around here some can pound salt over things.  And of course I get to go cheaper in my own way around here without a problem at all for my own household.  Maybe that is another thing that my aunt is worried about with me is that I am doing things on the cheap/frugal side and will always find ways to do things that way.  While I have been down here also I have figured out in other ways to get that much cheaper for my place and that is how I like it at this point in time.  Another thing is that with the long drive I can pretty much sit there in the truck and think of what all I can do and what to cut that much further around the household on the way back.  Since I have went to the store twice since I have been here in Illinois and knowing that I got alot of things to take back with me here after all the sales and coupons it is hurting some folks also in what I am doing for my own sake also here.  Knowing that I can not change some people at all and they know that I went to the cheap side of life even further over the years it is just eating them alive at this point also here.  So now at this point in time some will learn that I have done this for myself and refuse to spend money in what they want me to also here.
