Knowing now

Well now I know that I am doing something good for my household here totally it makes some folks mad at me.  Since I am going to the cheaper end of the household here totally at this time at least I can say that some things are working out for the best here.  Also I noticed that my water bill has went totally down for the household here and that is without some doing laundry once a month here.  With during the week here I do not flush some things all of the time during the day and some people have not got that part of things as of yet here.  Since I have a ton of laundry myself here and now with the both of us here and to get someone elses laundry also it hurt all the way around the household.  Between the power bill and the water bill here the water is more than the power bill at this time still.  So I will be working on the both of the bills along with others here for the household at this time some would just walk away in what I am about ready to do at this point in time to cut alot of things out that are not needed totally here.  Another thing is for the household here is that some have not figured out that when I get to the laundry here is that I hang up almost everything to dry except maybe 2 loads that are needed right away.  Also I try to get some while they were doing their own laundry to do it in the off peak hours totally for the power bill.  While I am at it all I guess this is why I have been tighter than normal around the household here as of late also.  As I told some lastnight I am suprized that I do not squeek when I walk at this point in time while I am at it here since I am going that much cheaper for the place.  All the guy could do was laugh about it and asked in what I was doing at this point in time to get things that much lower also.  Since I told him straight out it may only cost me 20 dollars a week to eat at this point and that was a huge if for the 20 dollars and that was including meat on the table at this point in time also here.  So now here I can say that somethings will come back into play to get bills paid here and go from there totally here in the household.  This is what hurts people like the complainers at this time since I will go for walks early in the morning here or really late at night at this point again for the household here.  Either way I have to start doing something for the household here and go with it all.  The nice thing about my household here is that my Husband will not complain one bit in what I will do for the place to get it to the cheapness levels here yet again.  With that said lets see what I can do for the day that is cheap and go from there for the day. 

Shaking my head

Well at this point in time yesterday was pretty much shot when I started folding towels.  I do not know what hurt worse standing up or sitting down yesterday at this point in time.  So now at least I can get up and move for the day at this time.  As I sit here now and think of all in what I have to get done for the day here and I am hoping that I get at least a little more done today than what I did yesterday.  Also my Husband asked me if I really wanted a garden this year while I was at it all.  I said yes and it would help out totally here for some things for the household while I was thinking about it.  I will say it will help with the nickel and dimeing the household here also for alot of what I do at this point.  With that said here there is still alot of things getting switched over at this time and it seems the more I want it to get changed then the less I use at this point in time also.  Since some did ask again in what I was doing for the household here and if I wanted to move again here I said no I will not at this point in time here and I have gone that much cheaper at this point to prove that I still have in what it takes.  What helps out around here with being cheaper than snot most of the time is that I know in what the one side of the family does at this point and some of us broke the madness on not being broke at all and if we are then it ment that we all paid bills around the house.  That or paid bills and went to the grocery store also at the time.  When I started switching things over again for the household here it was right after my surgery also.  So now at this point some will notice alot of changes that are going on if and when they all come over to the house at this point in time.  Also another good thing at this time here is that some could careless in what I am doing since I have a supposad nasty attatude about it all for the place in general.  The next time when I am asked about the paper plates here at the household I will tell the person that I did not see them bring any over so there for deal with what I have at this point in time.  With that being said here I have noticed that I have more money to by food with after not getting the paper plates at all and some have not figured that part out as of yet.  Anyway at this time since my Husband and I had the laugh about the cleaners here under the sink totally the other day my Husband also realized that some things are done here to save money totally and he know that out of me here and now.  What is getting to alot of folks at this point in time here is that since I am doing alot more on the cheap for the household that I refuse to budge on alot of things that they want me to at this point in time.  Also another thing is that since I have stopped letting some people barrow money off of me they have stopped calling all of the time to holler about in how broke they are.  Since the truck is paid off at this time and has been since I got it totally around here I am sure that some are mad about that since they have a car payment totally.  What is what gets to me around here is that when some holler about being broke all of the time to me and I ask ok what did you not pay at all at this point in time they can not answer me at all.  All I can do is shake my head and go from there at this point in time also.  So now at this point in time I guess this is why I have not turned in the nickels that I have here on back log and will get to that part when I am good and ready to here.  When some have hollered at me for not taking things in here to make room I just look at them totally and tell them in how it is around here totally.  At this point in time I can say also that at least I am saving up for afew things for the household here and that will not change in the least bit with me.  So now with that part said here at least I know that I have a good head start with some things here and will continue to save money if and when I can here totally for some things for the household.  This is why I wanted to get back into my walks here also for the household so I know that I am doing something and picking up a nickel at a time to help out with something.  That is how I look at things at this point in time. 

Plotting already

Well I am already plotting for the day here along with adding to the list that has to be done here in the household totally.  Since alot of it will be done on the cheap today without a problem at all here some have not got in why I do things the way that I do things like that at all.  So now at this point in time here I will be cleaning parts of the house here since there is nobody under foot unless it is the dog or cat running thru for where I am at.  My Husband only caught part of in what I do for the week here this past Saturday here for the household and told me he does not wander in why I was so tired by that night around the household here at all.  With that being said I think he has a better grasp on not hollering about things that I do not get to during the week here at this point in time now.  Since alot of what I do here in the household by cleaning, shopping, and paying bills here he finally figured it all out in what I really do while he is gone.  So now at this point in time here I have been nickel and dimeing the household on top of everything else here.  We both laughed yesterday afternoon here when I opened up the one cabnet and said I think we are stocked up with that stuff here.  With the one cabnet I keep all of the cleaners in that spot here and I can keep track of it better that way.  Pluss while I had the girls here they never got into that cabnet while they were here totally without the child proofing latch.  That tells me that both girls knew better with me around here totally and they knew in the cabnet they could get into or I would get something for them if they wanted it at the time here.  So now at this point in time here I will say since I am stocked up here some would just totally freak out since it was all on sale when I got things or so cheap that it did not matter on the budget here.  When I did get things for 90 cents here for some things I stocked up totally on that item and I have enough to last for a good while.  This is why some folks stock up their household on some things that do not go bad within an amount of time and it helps out on the budget for the household totally.  Things like laundry and dish deturgents, shampoo and conditioners, bath soaps, T.P., paper towels, and some other things do not go bad when they are sitting on the shelf at home totally.  There are other things that do not go bad also around the household.  So now that there are somethings that I have here in the household that some people like the complainers and my one aunt can not stand in what I have done here at all.  So with that said my one aunt does not get in why I was saving the soda bottles and the glass bottles that I had while I was in Illinois at all at that point.  The soda bottles I already paid the nickel on and the one aunt wanted to throw it into the recycle bin and told me it did not matter since she did not care at all.  She almost got beat with the bottle to get my point across to her totally.  Since the nickels add up in my household it is money already spent and may as well get it back from NY State.  As I sit here and think of how my one aunt wastes so much money around her place totally and she does not even care in what she does at this point in time still to this day.  My sister said she had always been like that and that is why she always mouched money off of people totally over the years.  So thank goodness that my Mothers side taught me well on how to cut corners for the household totally and to shop smart also.  Maybe that is why I try to keep alot of back stock on my hands here in the household so I do not have to worry about running out in a snow storm to get food and other things for the household.  That is part of the reason of why I got the 4x4 also at this time since I got stuck walking for some things also around here totally over the years.  Still to this day I can walk to the store if need be for things and some places are further to where others are not.  I miss the store that is 5 minutes on foot by walking and do not miss the mud puddles if that makes since.  So now here I can say that there are some places that I can walk to with a rolling cart and still have room for everything at this point in time.  So now at this point I can say here that some things happen for a reason and it is all in how we grew up totally in our lives. 

Thinking again

Well at least my Husband is off to work around here and some things are totally done around the household also while I have been at it for the day.  So now this is where the fun really begins for the place tonight when I start cleaning around here totally.  That is the kicker around the household is that I am the one that is stuck cleaning as normal.  My Husband wandered what happened yesterday when I slept for part of the day here totally.  Between not feeling good and getting some things done here yesterday it seemed like it wiped the floor with me to do very little.  Anyway I just got asked to go on a road trip within acouple of weeks here and I may not go since I do have a doctors appointment here within the acouple of weeks.  What some have not got is that it about killed me to go out to Illinois and back.  So I may not go at this time here totally.  along with afew other reasons here totally.  If it was not for the one truck exploding on I70 near the Indana and Illinois line I would have paid dearly for it that night.  So now with that said I do not see a reason to go totally since it is not my dog at all also.  Pluss not only that part it just does not make since for me to go at all anyway.  I have to much to do here in the household to up and leave again.  So now I will talk to some about it and go from there.  Anyway at least I can say that I am thinking around here on alot of things that are going on.  With that being said here I have to plan out some meals and afew other things for the household here while I am at it all.  So now at this point in time here since some figure that I sit around all day here in the house at this time they do not see in what I really all week here.  All I can say is that I pick 2 rooms at a time most of the time here and try to clean both within a day.  That is what I do here and always have if not more at one point in time.  It seems to get done on the cheap side of things here also while I am at it around here also.  So some people make me wander around the area in what they do around their palce also. 

Knowing still

Well I have the thing of Sandra Lee totally beat to snot and knowing some things here on cooking totally for the household.  I would love to see Sandra Lee miss several dinner parties out of the governors mansion at this point in time here totally also.  Since she was never on food stamps as a kid nor missed a meal out of the household at all at this point since one of her cook books she wrote the intro on totally she is not B.S.'ing anyone around here in my household.  Pluss she has totally missed the mark on her cooking in my household totally for cheap cooking totally.  I would love to see her try to get 4 meals out of 10 dollars for the week here at this point in time.  When you hardly see any flour on the show at this time with Sandra's Saving Meals on the food network at this time I wander where she really got the totals from on her meals since it is not at NY State totals at all in what she cooks.  Since alot of the food prices are high here in the state of NY I would love to know here.  Also on the show you do not see alot of rice and pasta at all still here along with chicken.  So now at this point in time some folks still do not know about Susie at http://www.hillbillyhousewife.com/ for alot of the cheap cooking and other things for the household.  Alot of the food ideas came from Susanne and others came from a woman that lived thru the depression era of the US also.  Then there are some of us that have sales along with coupons on top of it all here for the household to put food on the table with the cheap side of things.  It amazes me every week in how expencive in how some people do things in their place but it does not suprize me in the least since they are doinking the top guy for NY State here. 

Thinking again

Well I have been thinking again for the household here.  Now that I have the drying racks around the household here I am the lucky one.  When some have not understood at all in what I have been doing for the place at all at this point in time it is not on me at all at this time here.  Since I have at least 2 more loads of towels to get to today here I guess that I have to fold some laundry here today totally and use the racks for the towels also today.  It saves over 100 dollars a month in the towels alone to hang them to dry around the household at this point in time.  Knowing that some think that I am nuts for hanging my laundry to dry around here totally for the household I am ok with it totally in what others say about it here.  So now at this point in time the washer is back up and going around here totally for the day.  Since I have been cut down on what I have been cutting back on and switching over in the past 5 years here I have learned to say no to some folks who want to keep barrowing money off of me at this time here also.  At this point in time since some do not have a clue as to what I am doing for the household here now and knowing that I had to get the bills going around here with the trailer at the time they figured it was ok to ask for 100 dollars at the time and did not think squat about it all.  So now that I am getting things switched over here for the place and saving money while I am at it all here the one couple known as the complainers at this point in time have not figured out totally in why I will not lend out money at this time to them at all.  When nothing in my household is included with the loans totally except for the taxes and that is it, to where the complainers have everything included except for food, phone, car, and insurance they can not understand why I was saying no at the time.  Oh and they get at least 250 dollars in food stamps for their place also at this time.  When I see the paper towels and the paper plates that they get once a month for their place totally I asked myself of why I had to support them further than what I do at this point in time here.  So I have stopped letting them take the extra money off of the household here and went from there.  Now that I have shopped around again here for the household and got some prices from other places here totally I know that my place will be better off along with telling others no for things.  Maybe that is what I had to do around my place to get other things done here to get that much cheaper for the household.  Also to let some fall on their faces to say that it is not ok to be doing what you are also now.  Since I have looked at paper plates while I was at the trailer and figured it was cheaper to break out the dish soap to wash dishes than throw out the paper plates at this time here still here and that was over 15 years ago when I started that part of things.  By the time the complainers came along I would not get paper plates at all for the trailer at all and some are lucky that I have some here and they are totally hid.  So now since I have been as I call it nickel and dimeing the household here in the past 3 months it has worked out better on my part than others at this point in time here.  Now at this point about the only thing that has not been switched over as of yet is the dish soap for the household and that will get done I hope soon around here totally.  That is what has bothered some totally since I have had coupons for some things here in the household and do not mind the total switch over on alot of things also in what I use for the place here.  I guess this is what got to me more in the past 3 months around here is that some folks have tried to tell me in how to do things for the household here totally and all I see is money going out the door in how they all do things in their place.  So now this is when I do not mind when I go out for walks and pick up all of the nickels along the way here totally here also for the household.  Since I am saving nickels again around the place here like I did over at the trailer and I wanted to see how long it took me to cash them in here for the household before it drives me nuts around here totally at this point.  Untill then some will have to deal with tripping over things in the garage and in the basement around here also.  That is the nice thing about a bigger place here totally and some have wandered why I said no around here in the past 2 years.  So now at this point since I am into nickel and dimeing the house that we just got totally here I may as well take it further for the place and go from there to prove to some people that I can do this still on my own here.  And knowing it was not my attatude at all with some people at all and that I just got tired of some begging to barrow money along with complaining so much that it stunk totally here.  So now I will say that since most of the household has been switched over yet again at this time here at least I know in what I have and have not spent totally for the house here already for alot of things. 

Looking around

Well since I have been switching things over around the household here the second run to Kmart did well since I was on the last bottle of liquid toilet cleaner in the place of course.  So I picked up 2 more of the dry cleaner while I was in Kmart and it will work better for me than the other at this time.  With what I spent yesterday it was well worth getting back up to Kmart to get other things also while I was at it.  So now that I am switching things over here in the household that are still name brand things and that are cheaper in price than what I have been using at this point in time some have not got in why I am doing all of this as of yet for my place.  My Husband already knows totally here in what I am doing and he does not mind one bit at all for nickel and diming the place totally at this point already.  He took it as I am tired of spending top dollar for things here in the household and knew that my brain was totally back by yesterday when we walked into Kmart totally.  Since we are stocked up in soaps, shampoos, conditioners, T.P., paper towels, and other cleaners for the household at this time here it helps out in what I want to do to cut the corners totally.  What had triggered that totally in me was my sister in law or the outlaw one was that when we cleared out her place I did not have to buy squat for over 2 years in the trailer with the bath soap, shampoo, and conditioner at all.  It had about killed me to go out and buy the stuff after 2 pluss years totally and that is how stocked in some things she really was at that point in time.  I have a clear tote that was over flowing in the shampoo and conditioner at the time when we got it into the trailer.  My Husband could not believe it at all in what we had to do and knowing that we had enough at the time I was not going to spend on what we did not need also for that place.  So now at this point I am stocked up on that part of things here totally and do not mind it one bit for the house here and did it on the nickel and dime system totally.  So at this point in time since I have found ways to keep the stock in the household here and get by with it all my Husband does not mind at all since I found some things that will work for the household here totally and I will get the place that much cheaper also while I am at it all.  Since some have not been able to figure out that I am organized for the most part for the household here and will start matching sales with the coupons that I have here they admitted that they were lazy on alot of things at their place.  I just shook my head when they said something to me about it all in what they did.  And it included in how they cooked also at that point in time.  There I was and cooking alot form scratch in my own household here it did not shock me that some cook out of the microwave at all at this time here and I had to walk away from it.  So now at this point in time that is another bill that will be took down for the household here is food.  I do not mind cooking at all and alot of things are from scratch in what I make for the household here totally.  But then again here some do in what they were taught in the household and what they are use to also from years back.  At this point in time when I hang the laundry up to dry here along with turning things off I remember the power bill and to get it that much lower for the household at this time.  Along with other things that I do for the household at this time.  So now at this time here maybe that is why the one aunt that I can not stand at all has cut me down also along with making jabs at me while I was in Illinois.  Since I did not spend money in how she wanted me to at the time it seemed to get worse in what she did.  So that is part of the reason of why I will not be back down to Illinois at this point since I totally walked away and there is other things that she did also to make me just walk away.  Pluss the one aunt did not like my budget in what I did at all at that point in time while I was there.  So now at this point in time that was the extra push that happened in why I am going that much cheaper for my place here.  The other push was this week for me and I will stay here in NY State also.  As I told some it will take alot for me to get back down at this point to the Bi State area and that is how I feel at this time.  Pluss I will be cheaper than dog snot here in the household since I am not going back as far as I know at this point.  Since alot of things have clicked with me here after the past 18 months here and with the accident I do not have the need to see alot of people anymore at all.  It almost makes me wander in the if in what should have been done to begin with with some asking me to move their way also. 

Shaking my head

Well I got some things done yesterday around the house totally and it was not enough to even think about at all here.  With yesterday around here my Husband did see in what I do for the place during the week in the household while he is gone also.  That meens going out to Kmart for some things for the household that were totally on sale and with coupons also.  The poor man kept askeing if I needed some things and I kept telling him no.  So now at this point in time here at least somethings never change at all for what I do with the household here.  Since the second order I pretty much nickled and dimed out of Kmart and went from there totally.  My Husband just looked at me like I was nuts and so did the poor cashier when I got done.  So now at this point I will say that somethings are getting done around here and will stay on the cheap side nomatter in what I do from now on.  Now I can say that I got the push totally from this past week on what was said and now my Husband knows that there is no way that I am going to do what was said from some people and my recourse is to get the place that much cheaper here.  Since I got the push here for the household I will stay here nomatter what and get that much cheaper after this.  I did do some price matching between a 24 hour period and some of the shopping will be done at the dollar stores here along with other stores for the household now.  Now knowing in what I have done so far around the house here and I have been cutting down on alot of things here I can say that I have alot more work in store for me at this time.  With the coupons along with the sales at this point and having my back stock for the household also now it does help out alot for cutting the corners to save money.  Maybe this is why I have not cashed in the Nickels as of yet that are sitting around the house.  When I get at least 4 more of the big clear bags full here of the nickels I will go and turn them in and pull the money back also.  At this point there is alot of plotting and thinking of what I can do and will be doing for the household here to get things that much cheaper.  This is another reason of why I started switching things over also for the household here to where I can shave off money off of cleaners and other things for the house.  Also I have been cutting alot of the power totally during the week so that bill is lower around here.  When some found out that I was totally hanging laundry up here in the house they freaked out on me.  Not realizing that using the dryer was a real treat while I was in Illinois at the time while I was at it all.  So now at this point in time things will get done on the nickel and dime system here and I will keep it in place untill I feel otherwise also here.

Late start

Well I am not moving hardly this morning here and that is ok at this point in time.  Since I have to get somewhat started on the pile of laundry that got dumped on me yesterday around here I am in no hurry to get to it at all at this point in time around the household.  Also for yesterday afternoon I got in my nap also after doing other things here for the place and forgot that we needed coffee filters around here.  Since the dollar store or should I say stores are right down the block and within walking distance I went over to both of them here and checked on some prices while I was at it all and got what was needed for the household and picked up my Husband also while I was at it all.  What can I say about some things that I do not much at this point in time except that the household will get that much cheaper of course.  Also here since the dollar stores do carry alot in what I use and will take coupons totally around here I may as well go to them and save the money on some gas to say the least.  I guess I got lucky in that since of things for the place that I picked out around here totally.  All I have to do is take my one cart and walk up to the store and go from there.  It does help out in that part of things for the household here totally also and I do not over spend that way.  One of the Friday night crew was laughing since I can walk up to the store and get things that way and not even have to take the truck out.  With that said here some things are cheaper else where also and that is ok since I do have to go out to other stores at times here while I am at it.  So now it will be a total switch over again for some things that are in the household since I totally forgot that the one dollar store does have one of the dish soaps that I like there also so it is not a huge deal to me at all at this time.  At this point in time here since I am stocked up on alot of things here in the household I did not need much at all while I was at the dollar stores at all so I got some prices while I was in them and went on from there.  So now here since I have to get some things done for the day here totally and yes it will be another cheap day here for the household for the day.  Since my Husband does not mind in what I do at this point it is even better for myself to get that much cheaper here also.  Also I have and had been thinking about going that much cheaper here anyway before and after the surgery and when I went to Illinois it gave me the extra push to do what I needed to do for the household.  I have been doing alot more here to get the place that much cheaper since I have been back here and that is a good thing also.  With what was said to me this week about the birds, cat, and dog some have done lost it in my eyes after the comment was made.  So now the good thing about this is that I do get out around here to get food and other things for the crew that I have here and I get 10 minutes worth of peace also while I am at it all.  Since I did not travel well going down and back up to Illinois I will wait for a good while to go back down there totally here.  Also it gives me a chance to revamp the household again here while I am at it all.  So now here since I did get a statement for the loans on the house here in what was paid and not paid here I will plunk more money down on the one loan or as I call it the load and see where I end up around here also.  All it means is that if I do not have a coupon and it is not on sale once a month for the household I will not get something at all for the place.  Also I will be cutting the bills down that much more for the place and go from there totally while I am at it.  This is what some will never understand about me at all at this point in time and never will at all once I think of it all. 

Shaking my head

Well I have been sitting here thinking and plotting for the day already here this morning.  Since I do have some cleaning to do around the household today here it is not so bad in what I have to do here at all.  Alot of it is laundry around here and it will get done here sometime this weekend or during next week around here of course.  Since I do cut back on the soaps totally here and streach that out to the max for the household here that is why it is not so bad in what I do.  Also I will be hanging everything up when I get started on the laundry again for the household here.  Since I am the tight wad out of my fathers side of the family it seems and I am fine with it now seeing what the heck happened in November while I was in Illinois.  All I can do is shake my head and walk away from alot of it at this point and make a mental note of why I should not even bother with the mess anymore.  I have noticed that since I do streach out everything at this point in time in my own household and other things will not be brought in anymore at all also that this is why I got cut at the ankels while I was there.  So now at this time I will get that much cheaper here for the household at this point to make a statement around here to some people and to do it for my own well being also here for the place while I am at it.  Since it has been a slow go at switching things over here in the household to the cheaper ways on some things in the household it will all work out totally when it all kicks in for the place.  Little does some folks know that I can do all of this and get by with it with my Husband also.  Since he does not mind in what I do for the household at all to get it that much cheaper why sould I not do that part of things here.  So that is why I am thinking of dropping alot of channels here for the cable and afew other things yet again to save that much more here.  Some would have freaked out if they knew that I dropped the house phone anyway here last year at this time since it was an extra bill also in what I did not want to spend.  So yes I did say no to some about moving into the household here almost 14 months ago.  At this point in time since I am nobody's maid nor anything else I knew in why I said no and things have got alot cheaper for the place since I did say no.  Maybe that is why I thought that I would get things switched over faster than what I have already is because of my mind set is still at the point of almost 14 months ago with things in the trailer also while I was at it all.  With alot of things that have went on in the past almost 2 years here with me I am suprized that I have made it and still as cheap as ever around either place at this time.  Since alot of the bills I have had to work on between the trailer and the house here some figured that they could use the dryer instead of hanging laundry along with doing what they normally did also at their place at the time.  I looked at the person and said no you have to play by my rules and I am way harder than the P.O. that he had also while I was at it.  So now at this point in time here I will say that since I knew that some depended on "Mommy" still to pay bills for him and knowing that I was walking into a hornets nest I knew better than to let some move into the house here after we somewhat got settled.  Now here I am hanging laundry along with several other things for the household to get the place that much cheaper at this point in time it has worked out for the best around here totally.  As my Husband said since I did some things to get out of the trailer at the time along with thinking about other things I have saved over 10 grand for the household within a year already at this point.  Also here I would have been doing more from scratch and got that much cheaper for the grocery bill while I was at it all along with the worries of every teenage child coming into the household at all hours also at the time.  So now that I do not have that hanging over me it has got alot better at this point in time for what I had to do and get done here.  With all of this said for the place here I kept alot of sanity and went from there and have thought about it and that was it for the household here.  This is why I will shop at some places totally here once again and go from there totally.  So yes in alot of ways I am getting that much cheaper for the house here and can not wait for it at all at this time here.  Also there is just alot of things that will get done during the week that others could care less about anyway that I do here for the place. 

Wandering

Well I am wandering around here totally yet again.  Knowing that some things have been said and I have got good again at reading between the lines also once again.  So now at this point I will stay home and save up around here for some things again and some folks are just out of luck here totally for me even getting back to some places again.  I will end up hitting the state of PA for one of the bigger grocery hauls when need be for the household from now on.  That is what I should have done instead of going to Illinois totally around the place.  Now realizing in why I have totally gone on the cheap/frugal side here it was and still is worth it for my household here.  So now that part I am not wandering on at all here.  What I was wandering about is that in why some had tried to cut me down at the ankels for doing what I have done so far since I am not like the spend thrifts out of the family here still at this point in time.  Since I have spent some money around the household here to help with the drafts totally and to be comfertable also I paid some folks back that I owed money to while I was at it here, so I guess that makes me worse than some of my cousins at this point in time that do spend money and worry about the bills and other things at a later date.  While I was getting some things done for the household here I was also making sure that I could pay the bills for the household totally also while I was at it.  Since I do cut things down here in the household along with using coupons for alot of things here and cut off the power during the day I guess that it does drive some folks up the wall in just that part in what I do here.  Also since I do hang the laundry around here to dry it makes it even better on myself to keep the power bill low.  With that being said this is what I do wander on around here in what some of our parents were thinking totally when some of up were growing up.  That and how some could be spend thrifts infront of the kids and still have no food in the kitchen at all when I was growing up and go to their household.  So now at this point in time I guess this is why I try to keep enough food in the household to cook at least 3 dinners here.  Also I have pulled back food to the freezer to have a quick meal around here while I am at it all.  I guess what it boils down to around here is that things have kicked in with me in what I was taught to do when things got rough and then some.  Since I have been saving alot more around here in the household I hope that some get to wander in what I am really doing around here and go from there at this point in time.  So now at least I do have the upper hand on some things here in the household that some have not even bothered to realize in what I have been doing here.  I guess this is why I have not turned in the nickels at all at this time and have been waiting on that part of things here also.  So yes I have been nickel and dimeing the household in a way yet again.  This is what some have not got about me at this point in time yet. 

Very little

Well I have found out that it takes very little around here to start saving money totally or to get that much cheaper for the household.  If I knew that all it would take is a screen door to stop the draft for the front door I would have done it last year.  So now at this point in time lastnight when I sat down in my recliner there was no draft at all and the screen door does help with that part of it here.  Now as I sit here at my desk and think of everything that I have to do for the day here in the household it is not so bad at all.  That is the nice thing about going that much cheaper around the household here.  Also at this point in time here some things have been switching over slowly with some things.  When I got asked yesterday around here about the dish soap that was out in the window I told the guy it is the last of the run before the dish soap gets switched over here in the household.  Some thought it was a good idea since some just like to grab from under the sink for things nomatter what is going on and what was next to use.  I am still in shock in what some did while I was gone around here for 2 weeks.  More things were wasted than not and I had a pile of towels in the basement that some should have grabbed a basket for down there to gather them up instead of putting them on the floor.  So now at this point only short trips and I will not go for 2 weeks again.  I noticed that alot of the paper towels that were suppose to last around here in what I pulled out and knowing my Husband he pulled out 2 more rolls here and they were gone also.  The 3 rolls last me for over 2 months if not longer here while I am home.  That is why it drives me up the wall with some folks in the area totally.  Some figure that since they get something for their household and use it so should others that they know.  So now here I have cut back on that part again in the household along with the T.P. yet again and will see how that goes for the place.  Also at this point in time I have noticed that some have not been over niether to the house here in the past 7 months here.  That is how I like it around here.  Since I have really started cutting the costs around the trailer at the time I got told that my attatude got nasty then over a year ago.  What happened was that I got more blunt about things and cut even further to find a house that we could afford at the time.  Now I am just blunt about things here and started cutting that much further for the place.  When the one couple came over the last time for dinner here at the house and the gal looked at my Husband and asked where the paper plates were for dinner he looked at her and said well since ya did not bring them over and it is cheaper to wash the glass plates guess what this is how it is at my place, the gal did not like the answer she got.  After that the couple was here one other time and that was it.  After that they have asked to barrow money figureing that the meds would get me to do that part when it didn't they were mad about it.  Why should I let them barrow money now at this time here when they pretty much have wasted in what they do get for the month.  I would love an extra 250 dollars coming into the household for just food like the complainers do at this point in time.  Since I do not have that luxury at all at this point in time here at all now the answer will be no to them totally.  What gets to me around here is that with the 250 dollars in food stamps that the complainers get at this point in time here is wasted in their household compaired to streaching it out and cooking from scratch with alot of the food that they get.  Since I do not get the baking mix for the household at all and get the bags of flour and many other things to make breakfast foods and other things here it is cheaper on me to do so.  It costs the same when you get the baking mix to the flour and baking powder at the time here and in the same since I can get it to streach out for the flour and baking powder also for the household.  It comes out to be about 10-15 more meals for the 2 bags of flour and a can of baking powder for my place for the 5 dollars that is spent at their place for the box mix totally.  Now just yesterday I picked up a jar of garlic powder for 90 cents for the household here at RiteAid.  There is the bread sticks and other meals that I can cook also for the household.  Now at this point in time some folks would be totally scared in what I can do on very little for cooking meals around the household here.  The complainers are horrified in what I have done so far for the place.  Since I do think and plan things out around here totally that are cheap to cook it is well worth the trouble for it still at this time.  Now my one aunt is a pretty bad cook also and I have her beat to snot once I think of it around here also.  I guess this is why I could not wait untill I got home and could start cooking real food again for the house compaired to her cooking while I was there at grandmas house.  Since my father said something to me after I got home also about it I told him straight out if ya only knew the half of what your one sister did I would not eat it at all since the truck stop food looked better in what they all put out for the day.  That was the bad part of it all.  When the one aunt got in by that Friday before I left we pulled out the leftovers and I heated my plate up and said the grean beens were still flipping runny she laughed about it because she knew who made the dish totally.  So now at this point I know what the aunt that I do not like did and she should have learned by now in what to do about it and has not even bothered to try and fix it at this point it is totally on her still. 

Sitting here and thinking

Well as I sit here at this point in time and think about what else I can do around here to cut back on.  Since there is alot of things that I can still do around the household here to get that much cheaper it does not seem that bad at all.  Since I have not took the nickels back as of yet it it is extra money into the household here of course.  This is what some people have not got as of yet and the guys that were here putting in the windows, screen doors, and the door here today did not blame me one bit on it at all.  So now at this point in time here everything is looking good here and I am ready to fight with the screen door to get groceries into the house for next month around here.  At least I can say that now I do not mind when I got asked today in how I did alot of things here in the house at this time.  So I told him that I did one thing at a time and slower than snot at this point after the surgery.  Also in that I was going that much cheaper in the household also while I was at it all.  All I could tell them is that first start out with the small stuff around the household totally and it starts with the soaps that are already there.  And that is how I started around the trailer also.  Then I looked at the cooking while I was at it all after that.  So now somethings are coming along good totally around here on the switch over also.  I just can not wait untill it all gets done around here totally at this point in time.  It seems like it is taking a long time for some of it around here.  I was somewhat stocked in some of the stuff here for the household and now I realize that part of it was my one Niece that lived in the trailer also in that she used to much there at the time.  So now that the house here is back on track on alot of things once again here and things are being streached out to the max again it seems strange that I can do all of this totally here.  It is one of the things that I did not loose when the car accident happened 18 months ago.  So now at this time I will get back on track around here and the sooner the better in my book here and go from there. 

Shaking my head

At this point in time the guys were right on time this morning around here totally.  So now they are almost done around here also for everything.  That is the nice thing about all of this is that when it is all said and done I will be saving more money on the house bills around here again.  I guess this is what some have not understood in why I will not be travleing hardly in the next year here.  Oh well at this point in time on some that do have the money to waste.  At least I did what I had to do to fix some things here totally in the household.  Some things could not wait any longer in how I seen it all and it will save me in the long run around here totally.  So as I sit here and now and can not wait untill I get back down in the basement here and get something done around here at least for the day besides waiting on some things that I could not do at all.  Oh well at least I can say that some of the repairs have been done at this point also here as of today.  So now here I can say that since I am the cheap one at this point in time here also and it will get alot worse before it gets better around here in the household.  This is why I do not mind staying here in NY anymore at this time.  At least I know that there will be coupons to use when I need them for the household here and to streach out the back stock that is here also.  That is the best part around here to say the least and not get told to eat every 5 minutes while I am at it.

Shaking my head

Well at this point tomarrow will be way to cool to keep the birds here in the main room so I will have to move them.  It is better than having sick birds totally here.  So now at this point in time here since I am going that much cheaper here totally and that is part of why I do not want that hefty vet bill also here.  Also my grandmother is swearing that I will be moving back to Illinois when I refuse to totally.  Granted it is cheaper out there totally and I got to thinking on it ok cheaper, not seeing my Husband, and being sick all of the time also while I am at it.  Is it really worth that totally and trying to sell a house that I just bought also here.  So at this time I will stay up here and be done with it to where I can keep the birds, cat, and dog.  Also I will get all the bills down totally around here one way or another.  I think that is what gets to alot of the family members at this time is that I finally broke loose and do not mind being on my own.  With that said here knowing that I have to go that much cheaper for the household to stay up here and out of the grasp of some that I do not want to be bothered with after the last go around.  So I will start getting more coupons for when I do go out to the stores here totally and I am dropping that down totally again to once a month here.  Also I will be cooking on the very cheap around here in the household.  The new rice cooker will help in that part of things here in the place also while I am at it all.  Since I tried it out this past weekend totally and I really like it also for what I used it for.  With alot of the things that I am doing now here for the household does help out alot to save money.  This is what some have not got about me at all except very few people.  Since I started cutting back on things in the trailer years ago and alot of it stuck here in the house also after we moved into the place here.  Some things got better around here in the house also since I do have the room to hang towels also down in the basement.  Now at this point in time here I can say that alot of the utillity bills have went down for the household here compaired to the trailer here and I will be working on the water bill here while I am at it all.  That is one of the nice things about my Husband here also is that he does not mind what so ever in what I do to keep the bills down for the household at this time.  With that being said for the household here I will be shopping at some of the off brand stores here from now on also while I am at it all.  It goes with the coupons at the other stores also here.  Since alot of things are not going as others want me to do it works out better for my place also here.  Now that I am going lighter on the paper towels here and the paper plates that are here have been here for 2 months already and have hardly been touched totally.  Also while I am at it all here I have been slowly switching things over to the cheaper priced things here and I am still working on that part of things here in the household.  Since I got to looking at both freezers here I do not have to do anything untill about the end of next month here and that is a good thing for the household at this time.  And yes I am that stocked up on things here in the household totally.  So now at this point in time here at least I can cook and meen it at this point in time and not have to worry about things running out anytime soon at all here for the place.  Since my cooking will get that much cheaper for the household from now on and will use in what is in the freezers and where I have food at now it will be worth the trouble on doing that part of things here also.  The funny part about all of this is that I learned that one on my own here and there was nobody to help in that part of things at all.  So now at this point in time here there will be meals that are made totally that some will not like at all and at least it is food.  Also now here I will be looking more into doing for the household to streach everything out that much more nomatter in what others try to tell me in how to run the house from now on here.  When some people complain that I do not have paper plates here in the household from now on I will look at them and well since ya like the paper plates then go get some and untill then quit with the complaining on that part since dishes are cheaper to wash than throwing out the paper totally in my eyes at this point in time.  I will not get wierd about it just telling the truth to some folks that do come over and if they get over here again.  Since I have a full day at this point in time here I may as well get started on alot of it already here.

Shaking my head

Well I do not know in how some folks can eat out all of the time at this point.  Since I pass serveral of the fas food joints to drop off my Husband around here and that goes along with getting to the other stores also I did some quick math in my head in what I got yesterday for breakfasts here in the house.  It was 7 dollars for 8 breakfast sandwiches in total compaired to $7.44 to get 4 at one of the joints.  Gee what does this say around here in going out to eat all of the time.  So it makes me wander at times in how much some folks do it all and waste money while they are at it around the area.  Now granted some folks can not cook at all and then you get some like my aunt that it is just plain out wrong to let her cook also.  Anyway at least it is the tid bit to think about with some things around a household.  Also I have been known to cook breakfast the night before and heat it up the next morning also here while I was at the trailer and here in the house.  It all seems to work out better that way most of the time.  So now at this point in time there are alot of reasons of why I am going alot cheaper here to say the least.  Now knowing that some folks may not like in what I do for my own household and that is ok also by me.  All I can do is do for my place and that is it now and nomatter wat folks say to me or about me does not matter at all at this point in time.  Since I do hang laundry up to dry in the basement along with turning things off around here also during the day it works out.  When I started turning the T.V. off at first I would do it for acouple of hours a day the first week and bump it up an hour the next week untill I could go for 8 pluss hours a day without it around the trailer totally.  That is what bothered some folks totally when they first met me also at the trailer.  Also I was cutting dryer sheets in half at the time and still do that part just in case if I really need the dryer totally to this day.  Other than that I hang the laundry and use fabric softener also while I am at it all for here in the house.  So now at this time I am also shopping almost the same wahy that I have for years around here with coupons, bargin racks, sales, and doing the main bulk of the shopping once a month totally around here also.  The way that I do some things here for my place bothers some folks to this day and always will.  When I told one of the complainers to fallow me thru the store and watch what I did she took off and did her own thing.  By the time we all got up to the check out lanes at the time and she seen what I had in my cart totally and figured that I spent more than what she did, well she had another thing coming to her at the time.  Since I had alot more food in the cart that I had than what she had in hers and spent 40 dollars less at the time she was madder than a wet cat at me.  Also I had a months worth of food in the cart at the time and could work with what I had got totally at the time.  It was before I started using flour also at the time for things like pancakes and the biscuts for the trailer.  So now at this time here at least I can still say that I think like I am on food stamps without being on them here and now.  I had and still have a meal plan in place for the household so I know in what I will cook and will be cooking for the day or switch it with another day if it does not sound good to me at the time.  All I can say is try it out for about 2 weeks and see how that goes for the household and then add days to it when you are ready to.  When I was and stressing was on food stamps at the trailer years ago here I had no choice in the matter but to jump in and plan for the month totally.  That is how I got alot of the staples that I use today in the household now.  Also I have set up a budget for the household that includes 2 kitchens along with getting T.P., paper towels, dish soap, laundry soap, shampoo, conditioner, regular bar soaps for the showers, and fabric softener, along with some other things that are needed in the household.  It goes along with cutting things down for the household at this time also and going from there.  Since I do not need some things once a month here it is either extra food or I roll the money to the next month totally for what I get in the month.  Also it helps to stay stocked up in the household totally in todays world.  When you have the extra cash on you buy some extras that you know that you need also and go from there. 

Laughing

Well I can really laugh now at this point in time since the one rice cooker is going again for the household to heat up part of dinner again tonight here.  The nice thing about some rice cookers is that they do have a timer on them and you can make the one pot meals totally for one or two people if not three.  So now I will start to try out some things here for the morning times in the other rice cooker and go from there around here totally from now on.  This is what some folks have not got about me at all as of yet since I do cook most of the time here for the household and it is cheaper than going out to eat all of the time.  With that being said around here totally some like my cousin have not got that things out of the microwave all of the time will not get it in my place like it does at her place.  Since I do get up and on the move to get dinner going and many other things here in my own house here it works out for the best.  I guess some did not get taught in how to cook at all from her mother at this point in time.  When I can get huge meals out and in time for the household for some it makes some wander about in how I can do things here totally.  With that being said here I do find alot of cheap things to cook around here for dinners totally and will use the leftovers for totally different meals also here for the household here without a problem at all.  What some figure it is work for cooking really is not that bad at all.  Some people have to get use to prep the food then get the times and temps down around the kitchen totally to make it work.  While I was at the trailer a friend at the time asked in how I did everything totally and kept it straight all of the time.  I started laughing and said that I was so use to it that it does not bother me anymore totally.  Also at this time I have found ways to get things down for the household to cook here and go from there.  This is why I try to get out fairly early in the mornings to do alot of my shopping here also.  This is also the reason why I got out and walked at about 4 am then hit the grocery store after that for the trailer.  So it is something to think about again to do for the household here yet again.  When I would go out I would walk the mall parking lot and pick up nickels to see if we could eat that night also and alot of the times we could.  Now to do the same thing and the stakes are abit higher now with in what I want to do for the household.  What I meen by that at this point is to see in how much I can pick up at this time and see if we can eat for the day here also from at least 2 stores.  Now with that part this is where the flour, rice, pasta, butter, powdered milk, bakeing powder, along with butter, and some fruit with veggies coming into the household also.  Since I do like oatmeal and what I call mush also here in the household to eat it will not be so bad at all.  I think this is what got to my one aunt in Illinois the most is that I do not care in what she thinks at all and she is still a cruddy cook at this time years later.  Now with that part said and cooking for alot less around here with me totally compaired to some it amazes me that I can do all of this on the cheap side still and still have good food coming out of my kitchen totally at this time.  That is the nice part in what my Husband will let me do around here also over the years.

Well sometimes I have to wander about things here in the house totally.  Now knowing that I will end up doing all of the grunt work on getting the bills that much lower around here and I expected that part of things anyway here.  So now at this point in time I will see in what I can do for the week here yet again and go from there again.  The door and windows will help out that are being put in this week also.  With alot of things around here I have been thinking about for the household at this time and now I will be putting it to use for the place.  Since I will still be hanging the laundry around here to cut that part of the power bill down here of course and it seems strange that I can do this for the household.  I am use to turning things off totally during the day here also and not have anything going at all most of the time here.  Once I started that part over at the trailer it about drove me batty at first, now I am so use to it that it is not even funny.  With that being said around here I did that part and started cutting the laundry sheets in half along with using less laundry deturgent also while I was at it.  It stuck around the trailer and now I still have kept the soaps down totally for the household like I did at the trailer.  Of course some things have switched over the years between the trailer and to here now in almost 19 years.  Yes the switch is on again around here of course.  It is a better brand and it costs less than what I was using also at the time.  It is amazing in over the years with some things going up and others are coming down also.  Now here since I am cutting the costs around the household and an extra rice cooker also here for the household I can make the one pot meals more often other than the crock pot meals also for the place.  Also now breakfast will go more often around the household here also while I am at it since oatmeal is still cheaper than snot around the area along with rice also here.  So now some have not got the fact that I have been getting that much cheaper for the household here at all and some can stay where they are at this point also once I think of it now.  Oh well with in how I cook and do alot of the things here in the household some will not like me by the time they all get here and leave also at this time anyway.  Oh well on the folks who do not like in what I do at all here.  I found at least one person today who did not mind me using coupons to help bring down the totall on the bill this morning here.  It worked and got alot of things for a dollar this morning with the coupons in my hand.  Also I can walk up to the dollar stores to get some things while I am at it all this week.  Like the rain and snow really bother me anyway when I get out of the household to walk here.  So now at this time yes I am getting cheaper here and will go even further without a problem at all.

As I sit here

Well I told  my Husband when he got home yesterday that he had to move some things for me and get another cage into the house for this week.  The look on his face was good to say the least here and everything I hope will be done by the middle of the week here also.  So at this point in time at least I can say that after this go around here for the repairs and replacement of things it will help save some money on some of the bills here in the household.  All I can do at this point in time is to get that much cheaper for the place now.  I about flipped this morning when I seen the porch light still on from last night even.  Why I am mad about it is because there is an elderly woman that sleeps right at our back porch next door to us and I do not want to bother with her sleep at all since she is still healing along with trying to walk again.  So now with this week I will have to leave things off that much longer here in the house to off set that part of things also yet again.  With that being said around here totally things will start going cheaper here weather some like it or not totally and this time it will not help some to holler about it at all after this week.  Also at this point in time it will help this summer with the screen doors totally around here to help out with getting fresh air into the household without running the room units all of the time here and to get a breeze going in the house while I am at it.  The funny thing about all of this is that since I have used my brain for alot of things (as my mother put it) it has got alot better for the place in the past 13 months here.  With that being said that is why I started switching things over to the cheaper priced things.  I know that some like the liquid cleaner for the commode at this time and others like the powdered cleanser also for their place.  The powdered stuff still works better for the commode along with the bottom of the tub to get them clean totally in my eyes.  So now I will be switching that over pretty shortly also for the household here.  It is also cheaper for the powder stuff also for the bathroom.  That is what some folks have not got about me at this point in time at all here and that is ok by me in why I wanted to get that much cheaper and in why I have been telling them no also for about 2 years here.  Since I was working on the budget really hard at the time between the trailer and here in that time and started telling people no about barrowing money at that time since I was trying to get extra money for the house here.  With that this is why some have pretty much stopped coming over at both places and said that my attatude went down hill.  Why it went down hill with them was because I kept telling them no on barrowing money off of me.  So this is how I can pretty much switch things over here in the household at this point here and get buy with what I am doing at this point in time.  Not only that I do not have to hear about hanging the laundry when it is wet and about the paper plates along with the paper towels that I never got because of them coming over to make them happy.  At this point in time in being the housewife has been alot easier at this time without some coming over at all and I do not mind it at this point even though I need to get some other things done.  Now at this point also I can really cut back now and some people will not like it at all out of me and that is fine.  Since according to some people I am down right stupid for what I am doing at this time since I am cutting back here in the household also and that is on them.  So now do what you feel is right for the household that you are in and go from there.  Just remember to get others on board in the household also to help out. 

Sitting here and wandering

Now I kind of know in what is going on around here totally in why my one aunt can not stand hardly anyone at all.  It was always oh poor so and so she has it rough totally and it switched to her daughter when she got prego at 17 also.  With the both of them they have had an easy ride in their lives totally and some wander in why I stay away from most of the family totally at this point.  Granted I am the cheap one out of the bunch here and had to be over the years.  Also I never asked for money nor to barrow money unless I knew I could pay the person back and then some within acouple of days totally.  So now at this time here that explains the nasty pokes the one aunt took at me totally while I was there in Illinois and then could not believe that I got back to NY State within about 14 hours also.  After all the years that I have seen the one aunt just rob my grandparents on the one side blind and never bothered to pay them back as far as I know around here and her one daughter did the same thing also it makes me sick in what I have seen and I told my father that I did not want any part of it 2 years ago totally and I got one thing and that is it that I had asked for totally.  It is also pretty sick that my father paid for the cabnet that is sitting here in my house for his mother over 35 years ago and she did not want it any more.  It tells me alot around here also on that part of things.  Now also over the past 18 years here I have not had either the money at the time to get down to Illinois or the time or both at the same time except about once every 5 years around here.  Now with that being said the cost of living around here it just higher than snot totally.  Just this morning when a pack of smokes for the name brand was about $4.50 a pack in Illinois to where they are 8 dollars at the reservation where I go to and it is about 14 dollars off the res per pack.  Pluss the gas is about 1 dollar higher than Illinois in NY State also here.  And the one aunt could not figure out in why I refused to pay a grand to get my Husband down to Illinois without the gas for the day so he could turn around dog tired and get back to the truck.  And I am the supposad stupid one to the one aunt since I am tight with the money that I do have for my place.  All I can do now is sit here and be cheaper than snot since some figure that I can come down at any time now since the thing said so when I left.  So now I will do in what I have to do to keep what I do have around here in the household and that includes the house also now and get that much cheaper while I am at it all.  So now I know why my one sister was so hard on me over the years and I could never live up to her standards at all untill I totally got out of the state of Illinois.  When she realized that I did not ask for much and afew other things that I never told her at all.  Another thing is that when my grandmother said that the aunt that I can not stand totally was my mother I went postal.  Thank God the woman is not my mother at all and I did learn in how to cook unlike the aunt did totally and that I am not the spend trift that she turned out to be along with her children at this time.  When I told some in the past year here that I had stories of my one side of the family that could curl her toes and make her life look like it was easy and a walk in the park I ment it around here. 

Forgot to say

Well I made the cabbage soup last week with a twist here other than what we did in Illinois at my place here of course.  Instead of using the polish sausage I used pork tinderloin for a quick fix.  How I fixed it was I cut the cabbage into pieces that fit into my mouth here and soaked it for about 10 minutes in salted water then rinsed it.  Then I filled the pot with enough water to boil the cabbage and still have water to work with.  Now what we did was had homemade sauce with the first one and I used jar sauce for my batch here.  Also I cooked the pork in the crock pot for about 4 hours also.  It takes about 20-30 minutes for the cabbage to be done and throw in the pork, sauce, and other veggies into the pot and the food was done.  Now there are alot of touches that you can make with it in your place and it depends on how you want it totally.  That is the nice thing about cooking in my book.  Since the people at the Cabbage fest this year backed out or at least the sponsors did and I am sorry you can not block the Fire Halls doors for the fire trucks totally they backed out and you know who you are.  So now at this point since I could get a 10-20 pound cabbage for about 5 dollars a head I have to get the smaller heads now around the area and it is so much more now at the stores that it is unreal.  I guess that alot of us found out that cabbage is cheap and you can make alot of meals out of it around the household at this point in time.  So now at this time it is hitting on the top of my list for cheap dinners around here and then some for the household. 

Shaking my head

Well on the food network here today they are talking about the most bang for the buck in the kitchen at this point.  I have all of them beat except for maybe 2 that have shows on the channel and I may have them beat to snot at times also in my place.  Ok so I can laugh about the stone soup at this point here since I made it more times than I can count and have learned totally here in what to do to streach out the food dollars along with the other dollars for the household here also.  Since I was really broke at 16 and started cooking that way also for 3 kids and a husband at the time you tend to do what you can to streach the dollars and get really good at it also.  That is how I knew to hit some places for the soup bones also around the area along with other things for the household.  Also there was alot of pasta floating around the household at the time while I was at it all.  Now there is rice, pasta, beans, potatoes, onions, caned tomatoes, along with flour, yeast, baking powder, garlic, and butter sticks.  There are ways to cook on the cheap and alot of the times it is better for you than other ways of cooking also.  Also I have the powdered milk in the household so I can use that also for cooking here.  It drives some nuts when I do use the stuff but it also works here for the place while I am at it all.  So now at this point some have reminded me that I can cook out of what I have here in the household totally.  When you get either totally broke or can not get up to the store all of the time with either health reasons, weather, and you get the point look in what you have around the household.  I have made a ton of meals just from what I have had on hand here.  Over at the trailer yes at one point we were on food stamps.  One social worker asked if we could barrow money off of someone for food and I started laughing and said fine I will hit your household and raid your fridge and pantry then.  At that point I had about 10 dollars for the month for everything.  So I got good about some things around the trailer at the time and when some finally realized in what I was doing to feed the trailer since one totally busted me going to the dumpster at that point she pushed it all thru for us.  When I found out that she seen me doing what I had to do for stone soup around the trailer at the time I laughed.  So it worked and got the place going again with meats and other things.  All I can do is laugh about some things and remember what I did by the end of the month around the trailer.  I still pull out the old tricks every so often for the house here and it works still to this day when I do not feel like going to the stores at all.  Also now some have not got that I can still cook on the very cheap and will continue to do so around here totally.  There are times where I go with pasta salads for the week and eat off of that at times.  When the neighbors found out that I could cook around the house here it was even better.  Some did not like in where I shopped at and that is ok still here untill they got use to it all. 

Laughing

Well now I can laugh totally around here.  I got out to the reservation today and picked up some things for myself and my Husband here already this morning.  While I was there I hit the grocery store while I was at it and some people should just give it up on trying to run things totally.  With that said I seen the manager get chewed out by a 19 year old kid about the one girl where I was at and I had to agree with the kid.  I have worked with the woman that was there, and that the kid was complaining about and what he was saying was and still is true.  Since I caught the snide remark she made totally to the kid I shook my head and said something myself also about it.  I did not blame the kid for almost walking out totally at that point.  Now at this point in time I still have only been told once that where I worked at with the woman at one point in time that she worked from the bottom up and tough, instead of the top down like the rest of us had been trained working at alot better places thru myself working at this point.  At that point the kid did not see the half used thing in the cooler case at all and grabbed the full container of something and put it out instead since he thought the bottom one was full also and that is where the snied remark came out of the gal.  I would have done the same since I was told put the older stuff on the top of the pile totally over 21 years of working in the food service end of things.  I told the kid he was in the right there since I would have done the same thing and she should have known better totally.  I have worked in places that others have also in the family that I like and made it without getting hurt totally.  I do not say that burns count on some jobs at all still I expect them totally.  So now at this point in time here where I was at I could handle the place and still have enough time to get out side for a 10 minute break every so often.  That goes with remembering in what to do and still make things like slaws and tater salads for a place. 

As I sit here

Well as I sit here and wander at this point and threw out ideas with one of my Fridaynight crew about next week here.  He told me that I should be ok with that idea totally and with the 2 dishes for everything with the birds.  So now at this point in time here with the up coming week things will get done totally around here and with the one door, windows, and 2 screen doors being put in for the household it amazes me that they were here that quick.  So now at this point there are things that will get done around here this weekend and that is that since alot of it is folding laundry totally for the household.  So now at this point since alot of the things have been going fairly cheap around here so far already.  Now to get the place that much cheaper around here and be done with it all.  I am just hoping with this Summer here I can throw the doors wide open along with the windows on 3 floors here it will keep the house cooler without the bugs this year.  And yes I still have the window units just in case if the house does get to hot here of course.  Either way at least I am still cutting back around here anyway in alot of things and switching things over also while I am at it all.  With that being said here the hardest part is telling some here that we have to turn off lights when we are not in the room at all along with other things here.  That and why I do not want my Husband or anyone else using the dish soap for their hands since there is hand soap in the window.  It drives me up the wall when people grab the dish soap like that and figure that it is ok for them to use it to wash their hands with.  Even one of my Friday night crew got the hint last night with the gallon of hand soap that I have not put away yet.  This is part of the way of trying to get some folks on the same page around here totally for the household.  When I had been gone for the 2 weeks around here there were things that were used up around here that should have not been since there were towels that could have been used also to mop up messes in the kitchen.  So that is another reason of why I am not happy in what went on.  At this time here I guess this is why I am trying to get the place that much cheaper now.  Some folks get in why I am doing this to where others have not got it at all for what I am trying to do.  I guess at this point in time here some will see in what I can do for dinner tonight also.  Since I do have some meats in the freezers here totally and I did pull pork out yesterday for last night and I did not even bother to cook at all.  With that I may have something for dinner tonight with what I am thinking here totally.  Ok I never said that I did not want the quick easy meals at times here for the household also. 

Shaking my head

Well I am shaking my head at the news at this point in time here.  With some folks being totally broke and trying to figure out how to feed the household along with the babies at this point some are skipping feedings with the babies.  I see a whole bunch of problems there with that one totally.  Knowing that formula is expensive totally go down to the dang welfare building and get WIC for the baby and not skip a flipping feeding at all for them.  While the parents are at it they may as well sign up for food stamps if the money is that tight for food.  The worst thing they can do at the welfare office is tell ya no and laugh ya out of the building totally.  So now at this point in time there are ways to get food on the table for everyone and still feed the babies also in nomatter were ya are totally on the money coming in.  And trust me I have done it off of 20 dollars a month around here for alot of things years ago.  It is called soup bones along with opening up the cabnets in the household totally.  Also I have went behind the store to get the veggies that they thrown out into the dumpster.  It worked for the household at the time and kept the house feed along with kids in and out of the place also.  Some did not know in what I did to put food in the trailer at all and they may never know at all.  Since I did that part here so I could feed the household along with the bargin rack also here for other things while I was at it.  That is how I made it around the trailer at first totally.  Also at the point while I was doing that part there was other things that I was doing to get the things streached out.  The 20 dollars was all I had for the month at the time and it all worked out.  Also at this point in time tell me who is not having a hard time trying to feed the household along with other things in todays world.  Now this is why I say it does not matter in how cheap you go for the household at all for the food and you can make things cheaper from scratch also around a place.  When the kids get hungery they will eat totally nomatter in what it is.  Even the picky eaters eat after not eating for a while.  This is what some did not get at all with some of their kids.  One child only wanted peanutbutter and that was it.  Even then she did not want that altogeather also.  So I made her eat more than just the peanutbutter at times while I was there also in the household.  Now knowing some parents will not make kids eat at all in what they do not want and cook something totally different for one child that is what is on the table for the lunch or dinner for the night.  So now I guess that I did not cater to some of the children that I sat for at all and what I made is what I made for dinner and tough beans on it all.  So now at this point in time I still do not cater to every child if they are over and if ya don't eat then starve in my book.  And it is supposadly wrong with CPS when the child does not like something and they do not eat for the night.  It does not make me wander anymore here with in how some children are truning out in todays world at all and why they can not make it out of the household on their own.  And there are some children that have to make it on their own since they do not like the house rules at all and nobody to take care of them also.  Some found out the hard way totally about that part of the world. 

As I sit here

Well I am already plotting for the day around here and still have to clean.  Also with this up coming week the windows and the one door will be fixed totally around here while I am at it.  So now at this point in time I will have to get more done around the household and I have untill about Tuesday to get all of it done again.  At this time here at least I know that alot of the things will get done on the cheap side and I know that the gas bill will go down totally after the middle of the week here.  With the back door being as drafty as it is around here at this point in time along with the basement windows here it may not shock me as much when the bill will go down here totally.  After I have looked under the sink along with another hot spot here in the house for cleaners and soaps I am doing ok with that part along with T.P and paper towels here.  Since I do not use the paper towels hardly they will stick around for a good while here also while I am at it.  Another thing here is that I will be able to not shop at all around here also here so I can save money on that part of things also here in the household.  So now at this time here also since I can cook around here for the night with the Friday night crew here and see where I land up with that part for the place.  Now this should be fun around here totally and now to come up with the plan here so nobody hollers about what I cook.  This is what gets to me around here totally and that is ok at this point and I will see what I can do for some things here totally and where I land up for the night.  Along with trying to figure out here in what to make for the weekend here since nothing looks good at all in what I have wrote down in the calander here.  I guess this is what gets to some folks around here about in what I do also for the household.  Since I can streach out almost anything around here for the household and get by with it totally with some folks.  Also I will see what I can do to get food ideas for the night here and go from there. 

Shaking my head

Well at this point I know that I have not done enough around here according to my Husband of course.  Ok so I have been trying to get some hot spots in the household cleaned up around here and it is a slow go at it around here.  So I will be cleaning yet again today and looking for a job while I am at it all.  With alot of the things being stocked up around here I am thankfull for that part to say the least.  All I can say is that now at least things will be streached out to the max around the household and see what else I can do also to get other things going.  Since 2 of the bills will be dropping around here in the household also it does help out totally in what I do.  With turning things off and having the fire place up and going here it helps out alot for some things here.  This is what some have not understood at all in what I have been doing here and that is ok at this time.  Since I am going that much cheaper for the household at this time it is driving people like my Husband up the wall totally here.  Since I have been doing this and forewarned my Husband in what was going on here in what I wanted to do and the answer I got was no you're not.  Well I started in it and ran with it again I am going cheaper here.  So it means shopping at Aldi's and several other stores that are discounted at this time here to save that much more here.  Also with turning things off here in the household helps out with that part also.  Once I think about it around here with the weather I did get more wood for the house here and had no choice in the matter.  With that being said around here I am thinking back when we would loose power in the trailer park all of the time.  Now at least if worse comes to worse I can cook in the fire place totally here for some things and others I have a lighter for with the gas stove top.  So now at this point I will go up to Ollie's sometime today and see what I can or can not find while I am there totally.  It does not mean that I have to get anything while I am there also.  The nice thing about the place is that I do have several coupons that are so much off also at this point in time.  Anyway it does pay off to be cheaper than snot at times here also.  It depends on what is going on and what the item that is and was bought for in the household.  So now at this point I may as well go look around the place and see what I can find.  That and clean before I head out also for part of the day here. 

Getting things done

Well I am getting things done around here to say the least for the household.  Also I have not heard from my Husband since I hung up on him Monday after he started snapping also.  So now at this point I know that I will drop some of the family at this point in time since that is why I got snaped at to begin with and I am done to say the least after that part.  At this point in time I have kept my mouth shut on alot of things and will continue to do so around here on it and that is that.  All I can do is run my household at this point in time along with other things and hope that I can do all of this without a problem from now on here also while I am at it.  Since some things work out for the best here and I do have a bare patch in the yard here from the pool last year that hardly got used at all I may as well make that the veggie patch totally for the household once I have thought about it and the seeds are already out.  So now that I have alot to think about around here at this time and it will all get sorted out in what I really need to do for the place here also from today on.  What some have not realized is that I can cut alot more in the household and not think twice about it at this point in time around here.  So now there is alot to think of around here totally and I am thinking long and hard here and now for things that are really not needed at all here except on the weekends.  The internet here is not really needed since I can walk my toush up the street to use the computer also around here if need be also at this time if I drop that part.  When there is a will there is a way around here totally along with coupons and saving money that way here also.  This will get solved here shortly and some are not going to like me at all by the time I get done here at all.  I have no other choice in the matter at all but to go that much cheaper here for the household at this point in time here.  Now my Husband if he comes back will learn that I will do what I have to around here to get things done totally and be done with it all from now on.  So in the morning when I get up it is back to my walks along with other things for the household here without a problem at all.  The nice thing about the walks is that I can pick up the nickels along the way and know where to hit totally here also while I am at it all.  There will be 3 places that I will hit up and be done with it and see in how much I get and to see if it is worth it either once a day or once a week for some places.  So lets see what happends here totally and go from there after Friday around here and I will do in what I have to after that. 

Still cleaning

Well I am still cleaning around here to say the least.  Ok so I never said I am fast after the accident around the household here at all about cleaning and cooking.  So now at this point in time all I can do is clean and do other things on the cheap and it is going into the very cheap around here soon for the household.  When I got to looking at some things for the household in the past 6 months here I noticed that I could still do alot more to help out around here to cut the costs totally and got told no by some and others slammed me for what I wanted to do.  Some of it has already been done here with switching things over to the better priced things that are needed anyway for the household.  Since some chore's never go away nomatter in what ya do in the household I may as well go with the cheaper things and they work just as well for the household.  With that said for the house at this time I have also been streaching things out in what needs to be done.  Why use a full cap of laundry deturgent along with more than a tea spoon of dish soap also to get things done and clean around a place.  Just like the bathroom cleaner works good on the tile around the fire place at this point in time to get it clean.  This is what I mean by alot of the stuff that is here pulls double duty in my household and all I had to do was think on what to use and go ahead and do also.  So now at this point in time since I do have a back stock on alot of things here it is not so bad here and now.  Also I do not have to get out at all to get things at the store at this time so I may as well use up in what is here totally and see what happends when some finally get in what I am doing here and now.  With that being said here since there is alot that needs to be used up around here at this time before I get back out to the stores it makes me wander sometimes in how I have done things for the past 2 years here.  Between alot of the things going on and alot of pain that some did not count on at all and still managed to clean and cook pluss shop for the household.  So now at this point in time I have been thinking here in the past couple of days again in how to get some things started again here and where to begin besides making a list also for what to do and when to do it all in.  When I figure all of this out I will say something about it and untill then I may as well get the list up and going again for the household.

Shaking my head

As I sit here this morning thinking yet again for the household here I am ok with it at this point.  Since I took alot of the day off around here in the house oh well I have another 3-4 days to clean around here totally for the week at this point in time.  So now with today I have been plotting on what to do first around here and since nothing opens up untill about 9 am in the area I can get some things done here in the household before I totally leave for acouple of hours.  Or I just wait and get to everything done this afternoon at this point in time here and it is a toss up at this time.  So now at this point in time everything will be done on the cheap of course and that is how it will go here.  The funny thing of it is at this time is that some folks have not even bothered to realize in what I have been doing at all over the years for the household nomatter in where I have been.  When I was talking with my sister the other day here she asked if we saved up for the house that myself and my husband are in now.  I said yes except for about 6-8 weeks out of the year when the pay was not that good and that happends every year with the trucking industry.  Also I told her that I did things the cheap way from the trailer to the house here anyway and that is how things have been around here over the years.  Since I do not mind the cheaper dish soap and laundry deturgent at all for the most part here for either place it worked out for the best here and that is how we all made it besides the cheaper T.P. on top of it all.  My poor sister was shocked in what I could do for the trailer and the house here either way that I went totally and I just do not care in what some said to me over the years.  With that said some folks have belittled me over the years for cutting the costs for where I was and I am at still here to this day.  Since I do not get some things for the household still to this day here and I refuse to when some people tell me that I better get the items for the household I tell them that I refuse to waste the money like they do at their place totally.  The folks who holler about it are the ones that are totally broke and do not care at all in what they do.  I guess this is why they do not have enough money to get their cars repaired at all at this point in time still to this day besides the car loans they have out also.  So now at this point in time here I can say that some things will not change at all with some and I can not help them anymore also here.  That is another reason of why I stopped lending money to some people.  Pluss I could not afford to do that part anymore with some also.  That is also what happened down in Illinois while I was there when one of my cousins said that she was getting a new T.V. for her daughter since the other one was not supposadly big enough for her, along with nothing being wrong with the other T.V. also.  I just shook my head and walked away totally from that comment.  I guess it is no worse than my aunt telling me to drop the grand for my Husband for to get him down there for a day and to have to go straight back to NY State also at the time.  It made me sick in what some did while I was there and people do not understand in why I refuse to go back down there from now on.  So now since I have got back up to NY State here I have totally cut back on things that much further here and will continue to do so from now on.  I may as well be cheaper than snot here and prove a point totally while I am at it here also from now on.  So now at this point in time here there is just way to much that people have done here and now about things and I got out barely with my skin still on with alot of people.  So now to go that much cheaper here and see where I land at this time here and now for the household.  It will be all good after I get done and will continue to do what I have to also.
