Getting things done
Well I did get alot done yesterday around here to say the least. So with today here I will end up doing more before some get here I hope this morning. If not oh well on me for the day. Now at this point I can go down the street later after the guys get done with the fire place totally and pick up more wood to say the least for the household. There are some things that will get done nomatter what goes on here today. I know that there is alot of laundry to get folded around the place and yes I skipped a week for getting stuff in the washer totally also. The funny part about all of it is that some did not realize in what I was doing at all when I did get alot of the stuff from Kmart down in Illinois. May as well start in on that part since I did get things cheaper there than up here in NY State to say the least here. So now at this point in time here I can go 2 or more weeks without getting to the laundry for the household. I know that it would drive some up the wall by that part of things here if some knew in what goes on. Since alot of it is contained around here it is not so bad by the time I drag some things down stairs to the basement to get done. Another part is that I got told yesterday afternoon here that the basement was not that bad and that he liked in that I had the drying racks loaded up with clean laundry also. It gave him a chance to see in how they are suppose to be loaded also so he can tell his wife about it all when he got home after work. I told the person that alot of what has to happen with the racks is that it is a huge puzzle to solve for hanging things on. So he got a good look at it in how I hung the laundry and said it will work totally for him. So now at this point in time also since I do have alot of things figured out to get that much cheaper for some of the bills here it is not that bad at all. Either way things will get done for the household here and I do not mind it what so ever at all here. The best part about some things around my place is that some do not mind it at all if I get that much cheaper for the household at this point. Since I do alot of things for the household here like hang laundry and clip coupons also it helps out alot to where some would just ignore it all. With all of it going on to save money some have not noticed a huge change in what I do for the household at all here. Some of the neighbors noticed when it was nice out I did throw the laundry outside to dry totally this past summer and the one side was shocked in the drying racks being outside. I had to laugh about it since it works for the power bill totally here on being below an amount that they did not realize in after I got done with it all. Pluss I thought one of the girls was going to freak out when she seen me come home from Aldi's from shopping also when we first moved into the house here. The really wierd part is that some are into some places to shop at and others are not at all. Other places are higher than others also for groceries. So now at this point in time here I have been thinking about when things get really low again to get out to Aldi's and Save A Lot also here to get alot of the groceries for the household again. The nice thing about places like that is that there is alot of off brand things for food and alot of it is not bad on the taste buds at all. You just have to know in what to do with it all also to get it to taste right for the family. Also now at this point in time it is knowing in what works also from the bargin places for the household. What I did was to get one bottle of the laundry deturgent for the trailer and noticed that it worked better than what I was using at the time so I was hooked on it for a good while just like the dish soap also and that is all I would get gor the longest time for the trailer. That is when my sister in law would totally holler at me for in what I was doing at the time also. It all worked out for the best anyway and that is when she stopped hollering and realized that I was not going to change for her at all at the time. So now at this point in time I still do what I have to around the household to streach out the dollars and be done with it all. This is also the reason why I use coupons for the household still to this day. This is what gets to some folks about me at this point in time since I do things for the place here and do not mind it at all. Ok so sometimes I hold up the line for about 15 minutes with coupons and another 5 minutes with the card for some stores here. It is all worth the trouble for that part of things here and alot of folks get antsy about in what I do untill they all see the total before and after. All I can do is laugh at times here and go from there. Another thing here is that I know some money needs to be spent in order to save money also for the household totally at this time. Things like the windows and the one door being replaced around the house here and that goes along with getting the fire place fixed also here today. So now at this time I can say that some people did not want to bother since they could not up sale me on some things at all. I know in what happened also with that part with the fire place. When I called the first time to see where I stood here in September I got told well you know it is Winter and the Winter rates would apply if they could get someone out to the house here and laughed at on top of it when I said no the higher rates do not kick in since you guys never called me back at all for the price to fix the dang thing. The next phone call was about a week and a half ago and I got told there was nothing wrong with it and go ahead and start burning when I can see the flash thru the broken brick that is in it now. When my Husband called for the 3rd time he got one of the owners and the person was not impressed at all in how things went with me here with the calls to see where I stood. When the simple phone call to say that we did not forget you after the first month was all it would have took to say we can not fix it at this time and I would have delt with it and called the next person to get the fire place fixed here. Within 6 months and myself calling twice and my Husband calling for the third time here we got someplace and I would have called the one radio station that I listen to all of the time if we did not get anywhere with the place at all. So now at this time I will see what happends today and go from there and will report back about that part of things here.
