Shaking my head

Well I got alot done yesterday around the place with all of it on the cheap side.  I also got out for awhile yesterday while I was at it all.  So now here at least there is alot more work to be done today here along with some baking for the weekend also while I am at it all.  The nice thing about all of this around the place is that I do not mind some things at all that will be done on the cheap side.  My Husband started laughing yesterday when he asked how many bean plants came up.  I told him 10 at that point and 4 more came up after 6 hours after we talked.  I guess that the dirt that we got will work totally and I know where I got the stuff from the wife is happy about her stuff that is growing also from the same pile that I got mine from.  Now at this point in time I will be working over time when the veggies really start this year totally with freezing along with cooking.  I also have a feeling that I may get another deep freezer also this year for what we have going on in the garden.  So now at this point in time that is my cheap end of things for sauces since I really do not need some things in the household this year even though I have them on hand of course.  Pluss I told the neighbors on both sides here to come over if they want anything out of the garden since they do help out in the winter time also.  Either way here there will be alot going on by Augest around here.  Some folks will miss that part of course and that is fine by me.  I look at it like this since I did pay some back after all said and done here and I got dropped for asking one simple thing it is their loss not mine.  Also I did hear some things that happened and it is not on me here at all since the gal had the money to pay some of her bills before she took off again and needless to say some things got cut off on the gal.  So now here I had a good laugh on Sunday in what happened and that is how it goes after I told the gal in what to do to keep the bills low at her place after she did not want to listen at all in the advice that I gave her.  Then again she had a good teacher before her husband passed away also spend now and screw tomarrow with the bills.  To where most of us pay the bills first nomatter what then what is left over that is the rest of the month for gas, groceries, and other things for the household.  I have ran my place pay check to paycheck for years and got alot farther than some that I know and use to know around the area.  Even a close friend has been doing in what I have done for years here and found out he could get farther with more money in his pocket by the end of the month.  So now at this time at least I can say that some of the things that I do work out for the best around the household and I have alot more that I want to try out also this winter of course.  The funny thing here is that I do some things that some would not expect me to do and as a dear friend said to me almost 3 weeks ago that I am the cheap one out of the bunch that hates to spend on a lavash life style period.  The man was right on that part and that is how I have been over the past 20 pluss years.  So now here at least I can say that I do think on alot of things before I do around the place and go from there.  That is what makes me wander up to a point about some folks in the area that just do not care about some things that goes on in the real world.

Wandering here

Well I guess I will always wander in why I am getting cheaper all of the time for the household.  That is besides making some folks mad for what I am doing for the place.  One of the kids that goes next door all of the time asked in what I had planted already in the back yard and I told her.  All we could do was laugh about it and I told her if she wanted tomatoes to go for it while she was over.  Also now here some of the kids do not mind what so ever in what I am doing to be cheaper than snot here for the place.  With that being said here the youngest nextdoor knows in what is going on and thinks it is just cool beans in what I have been doing.  All the girls said lastnight was that they were learning off of what I was doing outside so far and would love to try it out once they got out of the household.  So at this time here I must be doing something right for the place here and like it.  I will always wander if I am doing things right for the place nomatter in what is going on in life.  Now here I can say also that somethings will get done here and that I just do not care in how some folks try to cut me down anymore.  I told my Husband yesterday that it has been a very long road for me this year on trying to get things done still and be at peace with it all.  I think the jabs just bothered me more since I could hardly do anything at all for the place and try to keep up with it also.  This time last year I was in alot of pain still here and knowing why did not help out in matters.  Another thing is that if the doctor knew in what I had done right after surgery here and what was done to me he would freak out and put me on total bed rest for the 2 weeks that I needed to just take it slow.  Also with all of the stress from some folks it did not help out the matter in my eyes.  So after Febuary here I noticed that I started feeling better after some had dropped me on the curb and I started cleaning the place up even more.  Pluss I still have to watch it so I do not over do it here in the household totally.  That is what gets to me the most at this point in time.  Also that the bills went down after that here.  There is alot of things that I have noticed in what was going on and could not say a thing since I was supposadly the stupid on out of the bunch while I as at it with some people that were coming over.  Knowing that it did not matter in how bad that I was feeling after the surgery and with the pain that was going on some people just piled into the house here and never thought twice about what I was feeling.  So I tried to take it out on the place here and got alot cheaper to prove a point that I could over compansate on things by just doing nomatter what.  It did not help out untill everyone stopped coming over did I realize that it hurt me worse than what I thought.

Shaking my head

Well at least most of the plants are in the ground already by this point in time and I have more to get into the ground here also.  So now here at least I know that some of us will be ok on veggies this year totally.  Also here now since my Husband knows that I want to get back to PA for some things that are needed for the household and does not mind it at this point since some are up in age.  I figured 2 birds with one stone and not in my household niether to get down to PA again.  Anyway at this point in time things are getting cheaper here for the household and alot of folks have got that part of things that in the whys of what I am doing for my place.  With that being said here there is alot of things that happened over the weekend and that is fine by me here already.  Since some folks have not got in what I have been doing so far for the place at this point in time since I have been dropped and they can not run back to others and start the lies again in what I am not doing at all.  Alot of the household is stocked up on the cheap thanks to myself paying mind to the sales along with coupons and I will end up totally stocked here without a problem at all by next month here also while I am at it along with other things for the kitchen.  I think it scares some folks in what I have done and willing to do here to save money along with afew other things since they will not live without some things in their place.  So now here not everything is getting ran here in the household and will not be after all that has happened in almost 4 months here.  That is how I like it here is that things are off along with the slower pace in my own house here and now.  Also I have been cutting back around the household anyway so I could do more here for the place.  This is why I wanted the garden in this year along with the lines outside for the laundry also.

Shaking my head

Well the nickels have piled up yet again in my place at this point and that is ok.  It is extra cash at this point in time here that others would not even bother to take in anyway here in the area.  With in what I am willing to do here to get out of the household to save up for some things.  Since alot of things that I do here for the household is on the cheap side and some folks do not like it at all.  With alot of things off around here along with why even bother with other things at all to waste money I have alot of it figured out.  That is part of the reason of why I started switching things over here in the place last year.  With that being said here the last thing is the bathroom spray cleaner of course and I am home free after that totally.  Since I know in how much of the dish and laundry soaps I use I am well stocked on that part since it was all on sale in Febuary around the area of course.  Of course others did not see it in what I had done at all here for that part of things.  Also I had been cut down to the ankles about 2 weeks earlier also for getting the Ajax dish soap on sale over at the dollar store.  Now at this point in time some have not been over at all here and they will not be over at all from now on since I do feel better around here without some people here.  Also I can get more done along with better bargins at the stores now and not even get cut for it.  Since alot of the things that I do here for the household is on the cheap and some have not got that point out of me as of yet, I am ok with that part of things.  Also here since the bills are going down for the place and that is even better on me here at this time.  That is how I got the garden in the back yard this year also along with the seeds, plants, and dirt for the thing.  Since I have went cheaper around the place on alot of things here it has helped out alot here for that part.  I have noticed in the area here that some do not even like it when some of us use coupons at the stores here.  WIth that part I did save about 10 dollars at Kmart this week and went from there with that part of things. 

Last laugh

Well I got the last laugh here yesterday totally for the household.  Since my Husband dropped me off at HomeDepot before he took off to drop things off to someone also.  With yesterday I saved over 300 dollars with what I bought and I will have enough veggies to last thru the winter here totally.  Thank goodness for dehydraters also for some things here that I have picked up along the way over the years.  There is alot of things that I can do here also since I do know how to get some things done for sauces and there are the runs down to Punxy also.  So I will get over to the tractor supply store to get afew things in about 2 weeks here and go from there.  This is what some folks have not got as of yet about me here and that is fine at this time in what I have wanted to do to streach out the money here in the household.  Also since yesterday I had a very cheap day for the place here some folks have not got in what I had done at all while I was out and about.  I have also found somethings over at the place that I was at since I could look around totally without some hollering about in what I was doing, and I can streach out some things that much further just by walking to 2 places without even thinking about it.  With that being said around here at this point in time there is alot of things that I can do for the place that is cheaper than snot.  Part of it is that I am not using the dryer at all here for the place.  Some folks were swearing that they had to use the dryer here totally and go from there on my dime.  No more of that at all for the household and that is the best part along with not having to run the kitchen lights all of the time.  Now that I have a good handle on alot of things here at the place it will be nice to see alot more of the bills come down here also.  So I will be working on that part again for the place here and seeing what else I can do.  The trips down to PA will help out alot also for most of the dry bulk for the household.  That is the best part about some things here for my place since I can get out and travel when I do feel good along with the better bargins on things.  Also I got to thinking on what I seen yesterday here while I was up on some sites here to pull back extra money totally for the household.  Even though I have other ideas on how to do something totally here and still get by with what I have to do for the trips.  That is the bad part of thinking on things here and I will try out another way than what I had seen also.  The one way would get something to the recycle bin right quick and loss of what I was trying to do.

Never ends

Well after cooking and cleaning yesterday for the most part the kitchen is trashed again.  Oh well at least I can think of worse things that could have happened around here.  At this point since I will have the house to myself here for the most part today again I will get something done without a question here.  The bad part of it is that I will not get a brake at all for the next couple of days here for alot of things in the household.  At least with the housework here I will be doing things on the cheap for the place.  I may as well streach out things here to the max and go from there.  Also with that being said here I have finally switched to the cheaper dish soap totally here for the place and it feels good at this time that I am finally doing something usefull for the place again.  That maybe what has bothered some folks in what I have been trying to do for the household still.  With some of the cashiers they do not mind in what I use in coupons for at all and if I can find something on the store shelves to use with the coupons also.  I was told years ago here that with some folks in the area they do not care in how much something is and how much they spend at the check out lanes at the stores.  With some of us we have to watch all the change that goes out of the household at all times here.  When I started out with using less of things for the household that I was in at the time I thought that I would never get it right at all.  Pluss I was doing to much at one time instead of little bites as I call it for the place.  Little bites are getting 2 things cut down at a time instead of trying 20 things at once.  Once I figured that part out I did ok for the household.  Now I can say that I look at the prices more than ever when I am getting something for the place here at this time.  Since my Husband does not mind in what I have been doing and about ready to do here for the place.  It also keeps me busy to get that much cheaper here also once I think about it all.  Now since I am not worried about getting cut down anymore for the things that I do here for the place I am feeling better about in what I am doing here totally.  Even the folks that have been over for the past 2 weekends here have noticed the change in me and that I have got alot cheaper for the household here also.  So that is the nice part about things here and I do not mind it what so ever at all now.  Another nice thing is that I can get down to PA about once a month from now on here without a problem.  It would be another thing that some would love to cut me down for also if they knew.  So at this point I will be getting a list up for another trip down within about 2 weeks here for that part of things.  May as well since I am getting that much cheaper for the household and the groceries will be nice to have since we have to eat around the place.

Shaking my head

Well I am done with the burlap that was put down in the garden as of yesterday.  So I took that part off totally here and I will see what happends in that part in the coming days and weeks.  With that being said here I will tell my Husband no from now on with that part of things here.  The things that were planted already all withered except for 3 of the cucumber plants and that is it.  After yesterday of trying to get more seeds into the ground here and other starters in the garden bed here that was about the last thing I did for the housework for the place.  Yesterday was nuts after I paid the water bill around here and did some running for the household.  It was all done on the cheap of course and I had no choice but to drive on top of it all since I had 16 miles to get to places here in the area.  Also there were other things that I had to get done before I could start in on the place here totally.  Since alot of things got done and some of the neighbors knew that I was cleaning here I got left alone.  I even had the mail guy laughing here when I told him to take back the dirty mail here that he handed me.  Nothing like getting a gas bill that has went down in price around the place.  I know that the one neighbor freaked out when he opened his bill yesterday.  Now at this point in time here at least I can say that it is almost summer here since that bill is coming down for the household yet again.  It will come down further here since I can cook outside once again here with the grill of course since I do have a gas oven and do not want to heat up the place by using it.  Even my Husband knows that I just do not like using the oven in the summer time here at all.  With the window units they have a hard time trying to keep up here with that part of things totally.  So that is why I do not do some things here and I expect some folks to have enough since to not use the dryer in the summer.  This year I will not have to worry about that part of things at all now.  Now since the one bottle of dish soap is almost done here and I will be moving onto the cheaper end of things for the kitchen yet again it is nice to know that I can do things on the cheaper end and not get cut down for it at all anymore.  Also I will not have the fight that I did last summer at all since I have already put my foot down on alot of things here in the household period at this time.  Some already know not to turn off things since I do not want the temps going into the 80's here in the household.

Plotting

Well I am plotting already around here this morning.  Along with where to start in on the house again for the day here to clean.  Also I will be doing things on the cheap today yet again just to save money for the place for next months trip here to Punxy so I can get alot of the dry bulk for the household again.  Since alot of the meats can be bought up here in the area that I am in so it does not spoil on me for the trip up.  That is one bad thing about the 4 hour drive at this point in time.  With that being said here I will have to shop up here also while I am at it for the 2nd kitchen anyway so it all works out for the best.  Since alot of what I will be doing for the household from now on will be on the cheaper end of things of course and it will help out around here without a problem.  Since I will be making lists out of what is needed again here for the household and taking it with me around here for the dry bulk it will not be so bad at all here at all by the time I do get done.  What gets to some folks that know me around the area is that I am getting cheaper by the day out of a need.  Since I know what is coming up here I may as well keep stocked up to the point of having alot of things on hand so I do not run out altogeather for the place come by the end of the year.  Also I will be able to get things down in PA here for the hollidays while I am at it this year.  So the extra money will not be so bad at all this year after I get done.  My Husband asked in what I would be doing for next month around here and if I wanted to go back to Punxy for shopping also.  I told him yes I will be going back down so I can get more bang for the buck in the groceries for the household.  Pluss it will not hurt me to see some folks also while I am down that way.  I will be within walking distance from where I stay at anyway so I may as well go see some folks while I am in that area to do what I have to do.  Also this past weekend someone told me that I had lost weight also from being down in Punxy this last go around here and all I could say way that I was walking more also while I was there and why bother to start up the truck also while I was at it.  That is why I kept the half tank of gas also while I was down there except to drive to acouple of places that were just out of reach.  Since alot of things are in the middle of town and 2 minutes on foot may as well walk it instead of starting up the truck.  That is part of the reason that I do not mind going down that way at all.  So lets see in how far I get today since I have to clean cages out totally and go from there for the day.

Tuesday, May 22, 2012

Shaking my head

Well with today I am plotting for inside work for the most part around here.  There are some things that need to be done also outside and I will get that done while I am at it.  The one plant will go in the front yard since I know that it will spread out on its own.  Since the one plant is a spreader here it will not go into the planter box at all since it will take over period.  Now to explain that to my Husband around here totally.  At least I can get some things done here in the household and moved out to the garage on my own here without to much trouble at all.  Also it gives me a chance to save up more nickles here in the household for my next trip down to Punxy along with getting cheaper here in the place.  So now at this time here since I am thinking of ways to save even more money here in the household it will work out for the best.  This is why I am keeping the doors closed along with other places blocked up here in the house to save on that part along with not using the dryer at all here this summer.  Since I have found ways to cut things off during the day here that drives some people just nuts here for my place that I do.  Also that is another reason of why I started switching over things in the household here for cleaners and soaps so I did not have to spend an arm and a leg on what was needed.  With the one couple that always complains about things did not blame me for what I did at all for the household this past weekend here.  Pluss when some had asked me in how I did it for parts of the household here and I told them straight out that I had saved up for it here and got things on big sales here for the place then they realized in what I was doing.  Since I have started going alot cheaper in the house here after myself and my Husband moved in it has been well worth the trouble.  What really helped the most was having the back stock in the trailer and I did not have to get much for the household at all.  Maybe that is what scared some people in the first place here in what happened with the move here.  Over at the trailer I had also used part of the back stock totally before we all moved also.  And since I had the feeling that some things were going to be on sale at some stores within the year that is why I did not get much at all there at the end and the beginning depending on the place.  So now at this time I do have my back stock up in order again for the household and I have figured out other ways to save money around the household also it has made some folks mad in what I have done so far.  To where others do not have a clue as to what kind of sale that I had hit at the one RiteAid store also right after 2 people dumped me also here.  That is how I got my back stock of dish soap back for the household and at 77 cents a bottle there and the $1.99 for 2 bottles of the laundry soap with bleach alt. also at the time.  Every so often I do use the bleach alternative for the laundry here and it helps out to get the laundry brighter here.  Anyway at least I can say that some things can wait untill mid morning to get done and go from there for the place.  Other things will get done after I hit the kitchen along with getting the laundry picked up again that did not hit the basket lastnight.  Oh well at least I can say that I am not a total slob at all and that things get done at my pace totally here in the household without question at all.  As I say the cheaper that I can get things done the better off I am at this time.  My dear Husband does not mind at all in what I do and how I do things here at all and if I can get things done on the cheap I am a better person for it totally.

Shaking my head

Well I ran out to Collins today since I had to drop off the paper work here this morning.  The office is just destructing on itself here without question here and I left it for the most part alone.  When I get told that my Husband would be home tonight and I am looking at the gal and asked her what have you been smoking here since he is in Minnesota as far as I knew and it is a 16 hour haul in a big truck totally.  It was either I got the paper work that my Husband needed or they could have delt with him on Friday around the office.  So now at this point I do have the paper work and it is useless to me here totally since I have nothing to go into bond or transit over Canada at all unless I take birds across and that still will not happen here since the Quakers are illegal in PA.  It makes me wander about some folks here and laugh at the same time here for the day.  Pluss I had to clean when I got back to the house this morning anyway and I got alot done for the day already.  More of it will get done tomarrow around here also while I am at it here.  Since alot of things got done on the cheap here without a problem at all and alot of things are still off at this time here.  So now that will take into affect even more here once I think about it also that things will be turned off even longer around here in my place.  After all of this I should be good here with some of the bills if I keep some things off here for longer periods of time and the dryer is what the heck is that at this point in time for the place this summer.  Since I am up early anyway here on Sundays I can get my Husbands laundry washed and dried here within about 4 to 6 hours here on a good day without the rain. 

Shaking my head

Well at least I can say that alot of things went in the garden as of yesterday here.  Also I ended up with other things to plant while I was at it here.  That is one of the nice things about having a yard to where I can plant things and not have to worry about the kids coming thru at all unlike the trailer park where we were at.  So it will be nice to keep enough veggies on hand along with other things here also at the house and I will not mind one bit on that part of things.  I had planed on getting cheaper for the household anyway and that is part of going that much cheaper for the place at this point in time.  Also I ended up with cabbage plants while I was at it yesterday here.  One thing that I do not mind what so ever is that I have to wait for some of the things to get going here for the household.  So at this point in time some folks are beginning to realize that I am trying to get that much cheaper here for the place and now they do not mind one bit about it all.  Even my Husband has realized that since the window units went in this past weekend here that he has to keep the door shut in order to keep the cool air going here and it is pretty bad when some of us can holler at the same time at him to close the door.  After yesterday when it hit almost 90 in the area that it was about 75 here in the place totally.  That told us something for the new window unit upstairs and keeping the doors closed also.  With that being said here on that part of things and myself working during the week on keeping things off totally we should be ok with the power bill here this year compaired to last year.  It amazes me in how some just do not care what so ever in what they do at their own place along with other places that they go to.  Also since some could not leave the dryer alone with their laundry at my place let the person waste money to where they go to do their laundry at now.  Since the gal alway claimed that she was always broke around her place and did not want to listen at all in what I had to say about cutting the bills down oh well on her now.  Also since my Husband tried to get ahold of the person on either Thursday or Friday one to return some things to her and the man told me that the gals cell phone was apparently turned off I told my Husband to try the house phone and I would give it to him to see if that was off also.  He did not even try as far as I know and oh well.  All I can say is that the past 3 1/2 months have been good and I did get the bills down around here without a problem at all without some people always over to my place.  I have got alot more done here for the place without the worries nor the hassles of the person who figured that it was ok to pile into my place and figure that it was ok to stay untill 11pm to midnight here and screw it in how I felt at the time.  At that point I was under so much stress that it made my neck and back hurt totally along with getting miagranes on top of it all I would go to bed when my Husband was home on a Friday night early enough at 6pm.  I would get cut down for not staying up with the full blown pain also along with other things that I was trying to do at the time here for the place.  Maybe that is why I was not bothered by when the gal dropped me as a friend also here.  Also I have found out that since the power bill went down along with the food bill for the place along with other things since I could switch out the soaps for the household after all said and done and still have money left to buy seeds along with other things for the place.

Wandering again

Well at this point there is alot more that will be cut out of the household totally after this week here yet again and I am wandering about alot of things here also and to see if I can make it in what I will be doing for the household.  All I can say is that since I am working on the budget again around the place it is ok at this point in time and will get things done here.  When some asked lastnight about the dish soap for the household and why the change here I told the person in why.  When I can spend 77 cents a bottle here instead of spending almost 5 dollars for the other I may as well get the cheaper stuff for the household.  So it does not bother me when some figure that I am wrong for spending less on things here for the household.  Now with that being said around here totally I will figure out a way to get down to PA again here for the next month for another grocery trip for the household.  It will work out around here without a problem and since I am planning to get that much cheaper around the household here.  It is like a need here to get alot cheaper for the place at this point and it will be done within due time here.  There is alot to think about in how I want to do this anyway for the household here.  This is why I have started up with my walks again for the place here along with not minding the long drive here for the groceries also for the place so I can think about things and how I plan on doing for the household.  There are something that I have already put into place here like hitting another state for groceries here.  I am not lucky enough to get a discount at where I work at so therefore there are coupons and bottle deposits for the household to drag down the costs of things here.  Another thing that I am planning some just will not know in what I have been doing anyway here so it is better left unsaid for that part of things here also.  With that being said there that is part of the reason of why I will be hitting alot of places on foot also here after tomarrow and I will still get my walk in without a question also for the day.  It will drive some folks nuts of course in what will be done here without a problem at all from now on.  So now lets see what kind of damage I can do here for the household and be done with it around here for the day even though my Husband is not gone yet. 

Wandering

Well at least there are some of us that are still cheap here in the area.  So now it is making me wander about some people at this point in time that are just spending whatever is in their account also.  Now I will be getting things done here for the household today without a problem and on the cheap side of things also while I am at it.  When my Husband looked at me here and asked in how cheap I can get the household here I told him watch and it will happen.  Also now that the window units are in at this point here for the summer.  And I also got onto my Husbands toush about not shutting the door yesterday here for the bathroom at all so we could keep the cool air in the main room.  That was part of my complaint last summer here about having the door open by 6 pm and the window units could not keep up at all with the heat.  So now without the dryer going at all for this summer at all this year then the doors keeping closed I should be ok with the power bill here for about 4 months.  With the couple that was here yesterday in the household both wandered in why I was going that much cheaper for the place.  Then they all remembered in why I was going out for the walks to begin with here and they seen the one chair and afew other things here in the household.  Even the gal she knew in why I ended up shopping with coupons and getting the nickles on my walks here.  Since I can go up to the store at this point and pull back the nickles here for the next trip down to Punxy along with all of the coupons also while I am at it here.  With that being said here I will be walking more here since it is almost summer time here and I want to see in what I can do for the nickle thing for the place.  Since my Husband does not complain about it at all in what I am willing to do for extra grocery money for the household here it will work out for the best here either way I go.  And tomarrow will be a good day to get my walk in totally here since I will be going to drop off the paper work anyway and see what I can get for the morning here while I am at it.  It will work out for me here since I do not mind one bit at all in what I have to do here for the household and it also gives me a chance to plot out where to start for the rest of the housework.

Found some things here

Well I found dirt totally here without a problem at all and some of the neighbors are gonna holler about this one that I am doing.  Also now for being behind in the seeds not any more once I think of it all at this time here while I am at it all.  Since some things go into dirt anyway here and it is all good, that is how I got my garden also for this year.  With all said and done I do have one of the window units going here and it is doing the job so far here even though I want the other hooked up down here on the main floor also while I am at it all.  It is one of the times where some things had to go in today or suffer with Sarge in the house with the heat in the house.  Since all but 2 windows are blocked up and other things blocked off at this time it will work and I reminded some to keep the bathroom door closed or else here for the hotter months so far here in the place.  Some have no choice in the matter at this point and I am making a statement around here about somethings that did not happen last year at all with some folks that were coming into the place that did not care one bit on what was going on and what I was trying to do also with the bills.  The nice thing about alot of it here is that I know that things will work out and that I will get the veggies totally for the year of course now and that will help save myself and my Husband this go around here.  I may as well go and for alot of things here and be as cheap as possible this summer also.  WIth last year it was a flapping battle totally here and that is how it went.  Now with this year I get my way on alot of things and some will lose out totally without a problem.  Also I found out that some have dropped their cell phones and the only supposad link to her kids for little money here.  Unless I was right to begin with here with some people and why I did not mind them dropping me at all here to begin with in Febuary here totally to say so myself here.  Also it is backing everything that I had seen and the red flags on top of it all.  So now it was an excusse to drop me since I was close on some things and knowing that some were lazy to begin with while I was at it here after November with the Illinois trip.  I am sorry that I am cheap and not stupid like some have tried to figure me out to be at all after all of these years here. 

Way to much

Well I have way to much to do today here and it is a nice switch totally.  Between running out to Buffalo and afew other places for the day here part of it will be in the car.  The other part is to get the place somewhat cleaned up for tonight here of course.  So as I sit here and need to make a list up for things to get done for the day here it will not seem so bad after I get started at all.  Since I have to go up to the main Cricket store here for one of the phones that I got 2 weeks ago and see if they will exchange the phone or just replace the battery in it totally to see what happends.  That will start the day off in the truck totally.  I just do not like to waste money on something that will only hold a charge for 6 hours at a time when it is brand new and nothing running at all in the back ground.  So now at this point in time someone will hear me today and if not they will without a problem.  It seems the one gal will not do her job at all at the store down the street and makes the customer do all the work.  I am not saying everyone in the store does that to all the customers that walk in and some are pretty good in what they do and will show the person in how to work the phone also while they are at it nomatter in how many people are in the store.  With that being said the one gal when myself and my Husband went in by that Monday of having the phones only 3 days was giving another customer the run around also.  When the gal refused to look at the phone and see what was going on with the phone and to see that nothing was running in the back ground there is a problem totally.  There are somethings that I did turn off and turned back on and my phone lasted almost 48 hours after a full charge also.  When I really do not run the music nor any other thing hardly on the phone unless I am really that board with the radio here that is when I flip the phone on around here for something different.  So now I will see in what happends here and go from there around here for the day.

Shaking my head

Well I did get some things done yesterday around here without a problem.  Now to get the window units out for this weekend here so we can have some cool air here in the household.  So I know in what I will be doing here for the weeks to come of course.  Since I will use the window units I have to cut someplace else in the house here and between the T.V. and the computer here they are first to go totally to be cut off along with more of the lights.  There is afew other things that will be cut here also in the household after this also while I am at it.  With that being said here there are things that some will never know in what I am doing here at all and that is fine by me at this point in time.  I guess this is why I ended up with the heavier drapes for the household totally so I can keep the heat and the cold from coming into the windows here at times of the year also.  I guess this is why I do not mind being alone at this time so I can sit here and think of ways to cut on the budget then bounce the thought off of my Husband when he gets home on the weekends.  Since I have put my foot down pretty hard on some things that will be happening this summer it will not be so bad when others get use to the fact at all in that this will happen weather some like it or not for the household.  Also I may as well get use to the fact that it is my job to cut on the budget along with other things here for the place since I am home more times than not.  This is what scares alot of people about me since I can get the bills down and not even think about it at all anymore.  Over the past several months since I got back from Illinois here I have made a total change here for the cheaper end of things and I ended up dropped by several people also.  What some did not get is that since I have noticed that by switching things over here in the household it has mad a huge difference in how things are ran and I feel alot better about it all in what has gone on.  Even my one niece has notice a huge difference in me here and that is how it is.  Since I have made up my mind on some things here it seems strange that I can get more done and I have realized that I was shopping way to much here also for the place at the first of the year.  Now that I have the place stocked up again here I have pretty much stayed out of the stores and that is how I like it.  There will always be things that are needed and that is part of the reason of why I got down to Punxy also a week ago here to stock up on some of the things that were needed.  As a dear woman told me she did not blame me what so ever in what I was doing while I was there and that where she is at it is alot cheaper on the wallet to get the shopping done there than up here in NY State.  So now at this point in time I will be saving up the money so I can get to Punxy more often here to do alot of the dry bulk shopping and go from there.  Maybe that is what bothers some folks to this day here about me and that is fine since I am the tight wad and the cheap one at the same time in many ways of how I get things done here.  Some folks do not mind me doing things the way that I do them since they are just as cheap as I am for their place.  I guess that some see the need to cut others down for things that happen in the household totally and how cheap that we have got also for the household and it makes them feel better also by doing that.  When I was in Punxy here a week ago it was nice since the one grocery store is open 24/7 along with 2 other places in town totally and I can always get out and see others in town.  Another thing is that since it is a small town everyone knows everybody else and it is all good still to this day.  Also I got afew more tricks that I found out that I can do here for the household and it is ok to get things done here in what was told to me and how some did for their place.

Shaking my head

Well I know that I am not dealing with my Husband this weekend here with the heat at all.  So I will have to figure out in how I will end up doing all of this totally around here in the house with the window units totally for 2 days.  With that being said around here I will get the place cheaper than what it is now and go from there also.  The nice part about all of this is that I do not have to get up to the store at all here for the household to get anything.  This is what some will not understand at all in what I am about ready to do here for the place to keep the house cheap.  I do have 2 freezers full of food so it makes it easier on me at this point in time to not shop at all.  With next month here I will have to get a bag of taters again and use up alot of the pasta that is here in the household for sides to dinners on the weekend here.  That is the bad part of things is that part of the stove will be going today here so I can save on the power bill totally here without heating up the main floor.  Since I had forgot that the one window unit was down here on the main floor it works out better at this point here since all I have to do is push it out to the kitchen totally.  So now here since I do have the window units here and one of my neighbors could not believe last year we were playing freeze out on the main floor after my surgery.  Also this year the with the power bill it will be down here totally since the dryer will not be going at all along with the one door being shut untill about 9 pm here while I am at it all.  I will not have to worry about someone leaving the door to the bathroom being left open all of the time by a person who does not give a rats behind here at all in what I was trying to do at the time.  Also with that being said here I know that some people that I know of have at least a 90 pluss dollar power bill for thier place and she lives alone.  I just shook my head and went from there since I did tell her here in how to fix that part of things also.  So now here since I have cut and slashed my bills without a problem at all here for my place.  It seems strange that since myself and my Husband were just broker than snot when we moved into the house here and one person tried to make us go that much broker in the first year totally at this point.  Also I am still saying that I got lucky that I did not have to put up with the person and the girl that we were suppose to get at the same time.  It gave me a chance to see what I could do for the trailer and the house in the past almost 9 years.  Things have got alot better at this point in time here in the past almost 4 months and I have to question in what was going on at times.  Now here I am not getting cut down for what I get here for the household to clean and to cook with at all.  It amazed me in that I found a cheaper way of doing things and got cut down for them totally here.  Since alot of things that I have been doing in the household here is watching every penny that is spent and to see if I can catch sales at the stores along with getting the bills as low as I can on top of things.  It is nice that I have a stocked household at this time here and I do not have to worry about that part of things at all here that goes along with that part of it all.  I am still good on the garbage bags also here for the household.  My Husband started laughing about that part and asked where I had them hid also last weekend.  I told him that they were under the sink in the kitchen and get use to it here since that part is packed full of the over stock of dish soap and other things for the household totally.

Thinking again

Well I know that I have alot to do around the household totally today.  So alot of it will get done for the day as long as my back keeps up with in what I need to get done for the day.  Since I have been plotting and thinking around here for the household I will make it for the day and the rest of the week here without a problem at all.  All I can do is sometimes laugh about it since some days I do nothing at all and other days I get way to much done here in the place.  With that being said all of it will be done on the cheap end of things here and I do not mind that part at all.  That is why I can laugh about some things around the household totally.  When some folks realized that I am the cheap one here without a question here they wanted to get out to a place that is about an half hour from town while I was in.  I told the person that it is ok to talk to the person who has passed away here even with out being at places.  We got to laughing about it since it is easier on the both of us in not to drive and lift also.  Since some always swore that I spent to much money around the trailer anyway when I did not at all.  Also here I saved up my money for things and made sure that I bought the best that I could afford at the time for the money that I had.  Needless to say the pots and pans have been around for at least 15 years for what I have along with a few other things here and now.  So here I am and knowing what went on with some at the trailer and others did not blame me at all for what I was doing at the time along with other things that I do.  Even others asked in how I have done things between the trailer and the house.  Since all of us use coupons for the stores still to this day here it was one of the funnies that we all have still.  With that part I still remember the day while some of us were in Indiana PA and I had over 75 dollars in coupons in my hand for the store that we went to.  That was a shocker to some that were with me except for my Husband at the time.  Also I took a load back with me back to NY State here and the poor Honda was full to the gills.  With alot of things here I still have the motto that to try to keep the place stocked up and get it as cheap as I can at this point in time.  That is part of the reason of why my Husband does not mind me going down to PA anymore since I can see family and get alot of the dry bulk for the household from now on.  Also since I have a small fridge for my truck I can get some things that are parishable while I am at it to bring back up here.  That is why I like my Dodge truck around here also since I do have the extra plug in the front seat.  Things like the Amish butter I can quarter myself here with a butcher knife and go from there once I get home that will be in the mini fridge.

Shaking my head

Well I got to reading between yesterday and today.  There is alot of things that are out there dealing with how to be frugal and small spaces around the country here.  I will say that one floor was the space of the trailer here in the house totally.  So I found ways of storing the back stock totally in the trailer over the years and still have them in place to this day here at the house.  Since I pulled out the buckets (totes) at the trailer it helped out around the trailer to keep things togeather and organized also.  With that being said here since the back stock was just nuts at the trailer once my sister in law had to be moved and had passed away 5 years ago on the 12th of this month here.  I got asked this past weekend here in how I did and keep doing things after the accident that happened almost 2 years ago.  I told the person that I get done what I get done and that is it and that is how I have been doing things here for both places.  So now here the person agreed with how I do things here since I work for 15 minutes and sit for 15 minutes.  I told her husband straight out I get more done that way and it helps out more than anything here in the household.  Since my own Husband is so use to me doing things that way he does not complain to much about it anymore.  About the only time here that I go for about an hour here is when I am in the grocery store totally if not longer.  At this point in time here at least I can say that alot of what I do here for the shopping is well worth it for the household.  That and I will shop up here for the 2nd kitchen totally.  There are some places that I will not be able to excape at all for things.  I have also found someplace that sells the puffs with the vicks on the in full size boxes at this time and that is part of the reason of why I do not mind going down to Punxy at all.  So now to start writeing down things that are common uses for the household here for a list and what is not needed at this time lists for the household to make things that much easier on me.

Long day

Well today has been a long day and I still have to drag the laundry into the house that has been washed and hanging outside here.  It has been a fairly cheap day here and that is how I like it for the household here.  I guess that is what gets to alot of folks about me at this point in time here in what I have been doing.  Since I did find some good bargins while I was in Punxy this past weekend here before I came back up.  That is the best part about what I have been doing at this point in time here at least is hunting for the bargins out in the stores and found out in whay I do not mind going down what so ever here.  So as I sit here now and think of what I can get for the next trip here and it will not be so bad since there will be things going on this next month again.  Also I will make sure that I take my list with me here to make sure that I get everything for the place.  Oh well some of the things that I did not pick up here that were on and in the list were not needed right away here so I skiped over things here.  Also I will get the things here for next month and hope that I have enough points off for gas when I go.  At least I can say that I will never put Sheetz gas in my truck again when I go to PA.  The truck drank the gas like nothing.  I filled up the truck to come back and I had a quarter of a tank left by the time I got back here.  The truck was not that loaded niether coming back is what got to me the most.  So I will go across town to get the gas from another station and see what happends after that. 

Wandering

Well I can say that I am wandering in why I have not went down to PA to shop before this past weekend here.  Now at this point in time I saved over 100 dollars with the past weekend here and like it.  Of course I kind of got hollered at for not staying with the in laws and that is ok.  Now some are realizing that I am the cheap one out of the group here and why bother to run up any bills on some folks.  That is how I look at it at this point with a fixed income with some folks.  Since it takes me awhile in the shower some days that is part of the reason of why I did not stay with the in laws.  Also I am greatfull for the life alert that some have at their place and just incase if something happends.  So now at this point in time since I did save money while I was down in Punxy it is all good at this point in time.  I will be taking down a cooler for next month here so I can get some things for the trip back up to NY State.  That is one of the reasons of why I want to get down to PA once a month from now on and I will get to see part of the the one side of the family since they are not to far from where I will be at.  At this time I will be getting coupons for the household here so I can save that much more on the grocery bill for the household.  Alot of it here with me is that I am getting that much cheaper for the household without a problem at this point in time.  With that being said around here I did find alot of things that I did pick up while I was down there and they were tax free on alot of things that were needed.  Other things that I picked up had a 6% sales tax and that is better than 8%-9% on the taxes at this time in the area.  Another thing is that I do not mind the drive at all and there is one store that I do want to hit up while I am down in PA.  I have seen the store for about 16 years here since I have passed it on the 119 and wanted to go in and look to see what they have also.  It is an Amish owned store and to window shop more than anything here to see.  Anyway now to get started on the day and to turn off things here in the household again.

Shaking my head

Well at this point in time here I still can not believe that I am in Punxy still.  Also alot of things have happened around here that is just not cool at all.  Knowing that some are out of town here untill tomarrow morning and I guess I shown up just in time for that part of things.  Also now somehow word got out that I was coming down here and Liberty Ann split for Harrisburg again along with living in a trailer on top of it.  Oh well it was one of the things that I just did not want to deal with while I was down here at all anyway.  As some told me yesterday here that the girl is so back and fourth here that it is not even funny anymore at all.  One of the things that I had told the girl years ago if they have ya busted to rights then ya fight it and never run.  Well she got busted for something and now she is running from her problems just like the man who raised her for 7 years.  So I guess that I got lucky on that part of things when Liberty Ann did not want to live under my roof at all here after what has happened totally.  Also here I also found out that now the girl feels guilty on what she did to my sister in law totally here before she passed totally.  Since I was not down here at the time when my sister in law was really sick and before she got to the hospital it is not on me at all still and my mind is still clear on the matter.

Shaking my head

Well at this point in time here I am making a list of what I still need to pack up for the trip.  Since I got most of the things packed up by 2 pm here and was still packing when I called a good friend of mine to see how he was doing.  So as I sit here and think of alot of the things that I am taking here for today it is not that bad at all and will grab one of the reuseable bags that I have to take stuff down and to bring things back up to NY State.  I may as well here since alot of things are cheaper down in PA at this point in time.  So I will make sure that everyone is fed and watered here before I leave for the day.  Since yesterday I did not get out at all from the house some of the things can be done right before I leave town/city here and that is fine by me.  That is part of travling here totally.  With that being said here there are alot of things that I can do here and part of it if I forget anything I can pick up while I am in PA since some of it is tax free.  That is another pluss of going down.  Ok so the cheap bug has bit me totally here and that is fine by me at this time.  Since it is paying off around here totally in what I am doing.  Some of us are still laughing about what was said to me here about another power bill totally that a friend has at this time.  Also I have figured out that I am not the only cheap one at all here.  With some of us here in the area we exchange ideas here and have fun with it at this point.  So now here since I still have alot to do for the household and before I leave totally here I may as well get started on parts of what I have to do here for the day.

Shaking my head

Well it seems like the flu bug is still going around and it is not good.  I know at least one person that has it at this point and the poor man is just done in totally.  Since I called him back last night here to check up on him to see how he was feeling and I told him to make tea to help settle his belly.  Ok so it is an old trick that works nomatter what is going on with a nasty bug that has been caught.  Anyway at least yesterday here I did get something done around the household and there is alot more that I need to get done today.  Part of it all will be out of the household of course for the day and I will come back and clean.  There is alot more that is going on besides cleaning for the day here since I still have to pack for the trip.  So I will be busy for most of the day today here trying to get things done for the place.  All of it will be done on the cheap end of course and that is not the problem at all.  So now here also since I will go the cheap route here nomatter what is going on totally and I have figured out in how long it will take me to get to where I am going to in PA here totally and it is about a 4 hour drive also here it will not be to bad at all.  Also I had forgot in what this weekend is totally around the household.  So now I will have to get more things out of my system here today and on the drive down to PA so others can cry on my shoulder.  So I may just do some things here that some would not expect out of me at all and that is tough on others at this point in time.  That is the bad part of things at this point in time here.  One good thing is that I still have internet access where I will be going to here and I am not sure if the one service still has my email down that way at all.  Also at this point in time I will not have to mop up any messes at all while I am down in PA at all now.  This time I will be doing what I like totally here again and that is how it will go.  Also my answer will be no for alot of folks for rides or charge them an amount that they can not afford at all while I am at it.  Pluss do some shopping while I am down that way here.  That is one of the better deals here totally at this point in time for that part of it now since I about know the prices.  Also now it would be a good thing if they are holding a crazy 8 sale while I am there.  Last time I did that part I had a 35 dollar cart and it was chucked full of groceries.  So at this time I will say that I will be taking the cheap route here within the next 4 days and that is how I like it for the place.  With that said here I will have to start up the washer for some things here also when I get back from some of the running and go from there today.  Oh well at least I am feeling good at this point in time to get things done again for the household and still be cheaper than snot about everything here.

Wandering

Well now I am wandering about some people at this point in time.  Instead of coming out and saying that some were not going to PA at all at the beginning here I get told 4 days before I am leaving.  I did ask 3 weeks ago with one person here to see if she wanted to go with me for the weekend figureing that was time of just in case if she did start working she could give notice for about 2 days to be gone.  Oh well at this point here totally.  At least I will be going here and see what kind of trouble I can get into.  It will not be that bad at all since I will be alone.  Anyway at this point in time I will be cleaning for most of the day around the household and go from there.  The nice thing about this is that I will be doing all of this on the cheap side and not one complaint about it.  I got asked last night in how I was doing it all around the household.  So I told the person here in what I had done and do not look under the sink at all in the kitchen.  We both started laughing here since some already know in what I have done at the trailer and why should it make abit of difference here for the house on being stocked.  Now the person understood in why I went that much cheaper in the first place.  Also I got told that I did not really waste money anyway in the first place ever since the person has known me.  What he ment by that is that I do not get the latest gadget at all and I am always thinking of other things that are needed and not the wants.  The guy started laughing when he seen the KitchenAid mixer also that is here.  Several times the poor man has seen me throw sparks at the trailer with the hand mixers that I had at the time trying to cook for 3 hungery kids.  There were and still are times that I can laugh about things here totally about things that have gone on.  When the both of us are laughing in what we have done over the years here as of last night it seems that we needed that part totally.  So now here I think that some of us are stuck togeather as really good friends here and that is how it all goes.  Since both of us are fairly cheap nomatter in what is going on.  Anyway I am off to get some housework done here and go from there.

Shaking my head

Well yesterday I had to go up to the cell phone store for the battery for both phones and Little Miss Ashley told the both of us it was on us to figure out what we were doing that was draining the battery.  One call to the 800 number for Cricket and 10 minutes later it was not us and it is the battery totally.  So now at this point in time Ashley has gave me nothing but problems anyway when I have been going up there to figure out something on my old phone and now to the new phone.  When the weekend crew is more than willing to help out and show ya in what to do and when to do it on the phones that they carry and use to carry.  That is what has got to me around here totally about some who just do not give a rats behind on the job at all that they have.  Anyway around here yesterday was a cheap day and some of us did traid in what we all did for cooking in the middle of a store and the heads of cabbage looked sick that was sitting out.  Since I do like cabbage soup along with other things that include cabbage here it did not look all that good for what I wanted to do.  So I may just wait untill I get down to PA to get a good look at the cabbage totally and go from there.  That is one of the things that I do not mind around here at all in what will be going on here for the household.  Another thing here for the household is that since my Husband does not mind in what I do to be cheap on everything.  So as I sit here and plot for the day totally and knowing in what I will be doing also since alot of things were up in the air for some of the cleaning that needed to be done here.  My Husband started laughing about it and told me not to worry at all since tomarrow is another day here.  So I will clean for the most part today and tomarrow is no better around the household.  Oh well at least things will be done by the time I leave here also.

Shaking my head

Well the laundry that I did yesterday got wet again.  Oh well on that for my part of things here totally.  Also I had to look something up for this up coming weekend so I can still get on the internet without having to go across the street to another place while I am there.  So now at this point in time here at least I can say that I will be going alot cheaper as of today here for the household.  My Husband does not even know in what I am about ready to do for the place at this point in time also.  With that being said here I will start cutting yet again in the place so I can get to other states from now on to shop for groceries and other things totally.  It will not be that bad once I get started on that part of things once again for the place.  Even with the drive time it is well worth the trouble here to get alot of the main bulk down in the state of PA here.  Maybe that is what some have worried about with me here totally with going that much cheaper for the household also after I got to thinking again after the surgery.  So now I will do in what I have to here to get cheaper for the household and go from there.  There is just alot more that I can do here in the place that will help out with the bills along with other things.  Since I have been cutting down on alot of things here in the household I may as well cut back that much more.  With the better weather coming the dryer is off limits for the household here totally unless I can not get to my Husbands laundry fast enough to let it dry outside.  That is another thing that some people could not grasp about me at all here for the household is that I have been cutting things off during the day along with not using the dryer hardly at all here.  So now at this time I will take the cheaper dish soap along with the laundry soap here since they seem to work better than the more expensive stuff out on the market here also and knowing that bothered some people that were coming over to the house here to where others they did not care since they knew.  With some folks that have been over and 2 were here lastnight here also told me half teasing that it was about time I started switching things over again.  That part I did not mind at all since the couple is as cheap as I am here.  So now at this point in time at least I can get some things done for today when I get back after dropping my Husband off this morning and go from there.

As I sit here

Well as I sit here I am thinking of getting to part of the laundry already for the day of course.  At least I am not in need for the laundry soap nor the fabric softener at this time for the place.  So now at this point in time I have been plotting on what to get here for the place when I get down to PA this up coming weekend and knowing what is needed nomatter in what I do.  Also my Husband agreed with me for getting a hotel room for when I go down to PA this up coming weekend.  After I said what was on my mind about that part he did not blame me what so ever at all on that part.  Then this way I can do what I have to while I am there and I will not bother anyone also while I am at it.  Since I will cook one day while I am there for the person I will be visiting so I know she will have some grab and go food as I call it with sauce that is in baggies for her when she gets in the mood for pasta.  With the hotel that I will be staying at it is a real treat with that part of things along with the pizza button on the rooms phone system also.  Also I will try out the phone for the music that I just got so I know that it works for what I want it to here and drive others nuts.  So that is part of the nice thing about what will happen here also for the week.  Anyway here at least I can say that this week will be a cheap week here at the household and I do not mind since I can handle it all still.  Either the phone will be going with the music that I have or the radio with the local stations will be going one here this week without a problem at all since I do have the means to get music now for things.  That will help out when I am down in PA when there is nothing on the radio at all.  So now I will be getting the lists up for to get things done here without a problem for the week.  I am suprized that my Husband is not up at this point in time with my phone going with the music at this point.  Also it is one of the weeks that I have to get laundry done around the household while I am at it all.  Since I told my grandmother here as of Friday afternoon and she could not understand in why I just did not go to PA from the doctors office since I was about 3 hours out totally.  Since I had nothing on me and had the feeling that I would have to pick someone up here from the terminal here that is why I did not go at all for this weekend.  Where I am going to is where the movie Groundhog's Day was filmed at.  Yes there is a real Punxy PA and the real Punxy Phil.  Now also I thought it was better that I would go this up coming weekend when I am feeling better totally since I over did it here this past week in the household.  Like this week will be any better but at least I can take a day and do nothing at all here inbetween things.  So now at this point when I have tried to explain things to my grandmother here and she does not get it at all.  Finally someone that finally gets that I do not totally sit around and do nothing unlike the older crew out of the grandkids.  The older crew is the 30 and over of us grandbabies.  So now at this point I will do as much as I can in the middle of the week and take Thursday off for the most part here except to pack the main bulk of what I am taking with me.  This is what would get to some if they were still coming over to the house here totally now.  With that being said here sometimes I do not stop at all for some things and that is fine by me totally.  As I say I lead by example nomatter what is going on or down here and try to get things done. 

Shaking my head

Well my phone went nuts totally here yesterday.  Even the guy when I went back said that it was not right here at all after 22 months at all.  So I upgraded my phone and went from there.  With that being said my Husband even had to get his done since his went on the frits also on top of it here.  Since we do not need all the frills and wistles on the phones at all it worked out better that way.  There was just to much going yesterday and I did not feel like driving up to the cell phone store I walked it since it is not that far at all from the house here and that is what I did both times.  This is why I do not mind on where the house is at this time since I can walk to places alot faster than driving to the place.  With that being said here I can laugh sometimes about things that go on here.  So now here I will have to program my phone here just in case just before I leave the house here to head down to PA also.  Since local calls are free where I will be staying at I will keep the roaming for when I call my Husband to let him know I am doing ok and made it.  That really ties into being cheap here also on some things.  Anyway at this point in time here I can at least say that things will be put togeather here and I will see to it for the place.  Now at this time since my bills are coming down here and my Husband about fell over totally about it I guess that I made the right choice in some places now also.  This is what I get for being cheap around the household at this point without even trying at all anymore here.  Since alot of the household here has been switched over to the cheaper cleaners and food it is not so bad for the place at all since there is nobody that comes over to cut me down for what I do for the place anymore.  Pluss I feel so much better while I am at it also here and I have alot more energy on top of it all to clean and for other things.  Now here I will say that the house looks better than what it did with some people that were coming over.  I guess this is why some things happen for the best.  Or maybe it is just me around here knowing that I am not in so much stress over somethings as I use to be here.  Even my Husband noticed the differance in me for the household.

Wandering

Well I am wandering here in what some would have done here yesterday when I got to the grocery store after the doctors office.  Since I am getting cheaper here in the household totally at this point in time some would have freaked out in what I bought on sale for the place.  And yes I did get lamb while I was at the store that was marked down.  Maybe that is what bothered some folks that were coming over to the place at one point in time.  Since I have been switching things over that are the cheaper brand names and I can still catch things on sale around the area.  When I was down in Illinois for the 2 weeks some of my cousins could not believe in what I had done while I was there on the cheapness.  My one aunt had the giggles over it since I did go to the dollar store to get some things for my grandmother and I spent less than what others would have totally.  With that being said here I am like that for my own household here to where I pretty much know where the bargins are nomatter where I am at.  Just like yesterday I had passed an Aldi store to and from the doctors office.  Every Aldi that I have been in is cheaper than the one in the area that I am in at this point in time.  This is why I have plans to go to PA next weekend here also.  Alot of the dry bulk will be bought yet again for the household and that is how I like it.  So either way it will be a cheap trip nomatter in how I look at it here.  That will be a nice thing totally for the month here also.  As I sit here and think about things here the wierd feeling has came back here about this up coming weekend here.  Oh well at least I will say that since I am going cheaper here that is when I get the wierd feeling totally about some things.

Well at least I have to wait for the next surgery around here totally and it was one of the big worries that I had for yesterday.  So I will see what is going to happen in September here and go from there.  Also yesterday I got over to the store to get some things here for a treat so I can cook for today out on the grill of course and it will work out.  Where I was at they had the Ball Park hamburgers at 7 for $7.99 and the ones that I mainly pick up were 6 for $4.99 gee it is a no brainer on that part of things here.  I passed up on the ones here totally since the butchers had not tried them at all as of yet I ended up with the other.  Comes to find out one of my cousins had tried them and said to others that they were good.  I will still not get the one since they are higher in price totally and they have to come down before I even bother with them.  Since I am the one that pretty much cooks (without the microwave) for my place totally here along with the shopping some folks will have to learn that I am the tight wad out of the bunch here and will count pennies to get things for the household.  Also the garage door went totally on me yesterday after I tried to close it before I left again.  Some things I had to clean before I could cook on the grill again and it was not pretty at all.  So now at this point in time here I will end up cooking around the household again and that is fine by me here for the day.  That is what the doctor could not understand at all is that I was not being lazy at all and the therapy that they want me to go to will not happen at all.  With that said I told some that I did do therapy here at the house while I am lugging in things bought along with housework also for the place.  The doctor finally agreed here that I was doing more than what he expected and hushed up about that part of things here also.

Shaking my head

Well one of my neighbors had to remind me yesterday to take it easy around the household yesterday and told me afew tricks about other things also.  So I waited on some things and did not get back out with the push mower for the front lawn here yesterday.  At this point in time here at least I have some folks that will remind me here to somewhat take it easy here for the household.  With that said here there were things that I did get done yesterday here for the place either way that I went and also got my power bill on top of it for the place.  All it told me was with 5 loads of laundry that were thrown into the dryer here and other things cut off around the household all month it was not me at all that was running up the bill at one time.  Now with some things here the lights in the kitchen for 2 days a week along with not needing the lights all of the time in the bathroom also.  Some folks would freak out if they only knew that the power bill dropped 60 dollars here without them coming over anymore.  When I told my Husband over the phone in that the power bill was only 46 dollars he about fell out of the big truck here.  That was the best part of things here and now with the warmer weather coming the power bill will maybe be 75 dollars with the window units going here this year also.  So now here at least I can say that things are looking up around here finally and I like it this way.  That is what has got to alot of people as of late since I have been getting that much cheaper for the place in the past almost 3 months.  Also I got asked yesterday here in why I had switched the dish soap around like I did last week here.  I told the person as of why and she told me I was trying to be sly on some things and I said yes.  Also that I could refill the smaller bottles with the ultra that was bought while I am at it.  It clicked with the person that asked along with other people in what I was doing and knowing that some will report back and rat me out in what I am doing for the place.  We all started laughing over it here yesterday and that is a good thing on me.  With that being said here with some of the things that some people complain about with me in what I have been doing others have told them that it is ok and others are ment to be cutting the costs in the household and that they would understand when they got out of the household totally in why I am doing the things that I am here for my own place.  So now here at least I can do some things totally and I do not mind it at all for what I do since it all gets done in time here also it strikes some people that I am not doing enough here at all.

Shaking my head

Well after the pile of dishes are back in the sink along with other things that need to be done here for the household I should be busy for the day here yet again.  It makes me wander in why I bother some times to do anything here in the household totally.  So I will see where I end up for the day here along with some of the paper work that needs to be done also here for the doctors appointment.  It is a never ending battle around here with the housework and it amazes me at times in how I can get that backed up when I think that I am caught up.  At least it will be a cheap day here totally and things will get done here weather I like it or not.  Since alot of things will be done today here and alot more next week around the house so I can leave for PA also it should not be that bad here at all.  I am having a hard time trying to get motivated for the day here is what my problem is for the moment.  Also I have alot of things on my mind here while I am at it all for next week.  Since it will be a weekend trip and as far as I know I will be taking at least one child here with me when I go to PA.  What is on my mind here totally is that knowing in what some may do if my one niece does come with me on the trip.  With some people I just do not trust at all here still to this day and never will after in what I could remember that some have done over the years.  Alot of my memory has been erased about the person except for very few things that I do remember in what has happened.  In what I do remember it was not good and that is why I have stayed away from the person totally after the accident here and she still has tried to push her way with me.  There are many things with some that it just does not feel right here at all in what is coming up.  Since I am up in the air on alot of things here still and knowing in what can happen totally here with some folks, maybe that is what I am feeling and think about at this point.

Shaking my head

Well I have been on a cleaning rampage here this week.  With today here there is several spots that I will have to hit up here before tomarrow.  Now at this point in time here the past 2 days here have been totally nuts here in the household.  Between dropping my Husband off an hour down the road here, the loan payments for the house here, and getting over to re order a book at a place it was a very long day on Monday.  With that being said there were parts of the house here that got cleaned up also while I was at it all also.  The joys of running a household at this point in time here and on the cheap also.  With the cheap part it is not so bad at all once you get use to it around the household.  As I have told some folks that once I got started on that part of things again I was at the trailer and broker than snot.  Alot of the things that I started at the time have stuck with me to the house here now.  The other part of it all has came from my Momma here in what she did for the household when I was growing up on stocking the house when a good sale was going on.  So now with that part that I have learned along with other things here it all works out for a household without a problem.  Now here since I am able to get things done here without thinking about it at all unless I over work myself of course things happen for the good.  With less stress on me at this time here in the past almost 3 months it seems like I have been doing more here for the place.  That is the nice part of things here at this time.  With next week coming fast here in what I need to do along with people to see of course.  It is one of the half of a tank of gas trips that I do not mind taking at all.  Also I will end up shopping for some things down that way anyway for the household.  It all works out better that way anyway and I almost forgot about no tax on jeans while I am there.  Ok so some of us are in trouble here totally.  That is the best part about some things here.  Oh well off to pay 2 more bills for the household here and to start somewhat cleaning again for the day.
