After not feeling well

I have had on heck of a headache for the past 3 days.  And it became worse after hearing a friend died about 3 weeks ago on top of it.  Most of everything is off still here in the can becuase the noise of everything was just driveing me up the wall.  Includeing the furnace when it kicks on.  Now it seems that I have to go cutting my hair again becuase that maybe the problem.  Just can't stand layers in my hair but it is the only way besides the chiropractor to cut out the problem.  Anyway I have been trying to get to the little things in the house that I had once ignored while I was being on the computer so much.  So yes the can is getting cleaner by the day and room by room once again.  I even moped the bathroom floor while I was at it all.  I do not use as much cleaner as they all call for on the bottle.  It seems to work better if you use less and very hot water.  The Hippy can't stand that I do things my way except when I had first started useing the red bottle laundery deturgant from Aldi and even that got watered down over the years.  So for the same price I will go back to Purex.  I will still streach out that also as much as I can by useing less.  Since it has been pretty cruddy outside I have started useing the dryer again, and will have to plug in the heat tape so the water lines won't freeze all togeather that way.  I would rather pay the extra 5-10 dollars a month in the power bill than unfreeze pipes again.  I have to laugh becuase one year it did happen to me in April and the Hippy almost got it if i could have reached thru the phone lines to get him.  He unplugged it totally and diden't say anything to me.  Men sometimes.  Other than that I have been paying bills and working on geting the place ready for winter once again.  When there is a will there is a way of doing things on the cheap side of life as always.  I am not saying go live like the poorest people live but set up a budget and write everything down in what you spend a month that you buy.  I have cut out so much by doing this that some people do not like coming over to my place anymore.  Going out to eat was one of the first things to go in my place.  Along with going to get coffee already made.  Pluss keeping a well stocked house on everything has helped also.  Sale items and coupons will drive the costs down.  Ok folks have fun and play even harder.
