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.
