Some of the why's
Well when I started cutting down on everything I was at the trailer and broker than snot at the time. With that said here I started getting the name brands for fairly cheap around the trailer and was trying to figure out in how to get the power bill down while I was at it all. Even without the dryer at first in the trailer when I first got up here the bill almost 19 years ago was still at 95-150 dollars at the time and that was without the fridge and freezer also once I think of it. That is how broke we were at the time when I first got up here. So we pulled out the 32 quart cooler and that was the fridge for the first year. Now at this time here I have a fridge and a dryer along with a sofa and afew other things also here for the household. The funny thing is with myself and my Husband we saved up for what we all have when we were at the trailer and for the house totally. So as I sit here and think about in how rough it was at first I can laugh also about it all. So now at this point I still swear that the power company was charging us the commercial rates instead of the other at the trailer totally. When I was compairing other trailer parks ours was pretty high at the time and still was by the time we all left there. So at this point in time the power bills have been running about 65 dollars around here and if I am 10 days late here they call me instead of waiting untill I get the next bill and pay it all at one shot. I know at least one couple who have not paid on the power bill that they had from 3 pluss years ago in the area totally. It makes me wander sometimes in what the power company is thinking around the area totally. If they are that hard up for money start collecting the way past due bills in the area and go from there at this point. Now at this point in time I will get the power bill back down around the house here and go from there. Since the power company wants to play games again here with some of us here some of us can play back and stick it to them totally here. So if it means totally cutting the dryer out totally around here I will do that part here along with other things here also. Since I do not watch much T.V. at all anymore here in the household it amazed me the old T.V. here in the main room of the house here kept throwing a black screen in what we were trying to watch all of the time in the end there and knowing that it was the child blocker on top of it all it was not cool. So now with the new T.V. around here I have not had that problem at all here. Knowing who did it and it was hard trying to catch a classic movie at times here also with the black screen coming up all of the time thru the movie. Anyway since I am cutting things back around here in the household and still saving money around here it is all good. It has helped out when I switched the laundry deturgent around here also along with other things about ready to be switched out here for the place totally now. Since some do not see in what I am doing around the household at all it is on them at this point in time here. It goes along with not coming over to the household also here and some have wandered why I have not called them to say that I was in last month around here while I was at it. So I made my clean break from some folks and was totally done here with what was going on. So now at this point in time I am suprized that I did not get a call last month from some begging for dollars at all from me and the answer would have been no anyway and still is. Since I supposadly got nasty over the years here to some since I do tell them no after not being paid back time and again I guess the friendship was based on money. So I gave up and knowing it was not me at all I did not even say a word about why they were not coming over at all. Also my budget has got alot tighter here at the house than it did at the trailer totally and some folks can not face that part in what I am doing at all now. Now here I can say that things are looking up totally and the bills are being paid also without a problem at all in the household. Since I try to over pay the one loan here for the house it works out better to say the least. Also here this is what on couple have not figured out at all is that the house payments come first and not them at all at this point. The rest of the bills fallow the loan payments here also. With that being said here the one couple wanders why I tell them no all of the time now. Also now with that I have been using alot of wood during the day here so the heat does not kick in as much for the place. So here I am trying to save money all the way around so I can pay bills and keep the household stocked up at this point in time and the one couple can not stand it what so ever and most of the bills from the trailer that they were at are still not paid off at this point.
