Today was not that bad

Today was much better than yesterday at least. The Hippy and I hit up the buffet for lunch today and saved about 7 dollars with the both of us. Then went over to Big Lots to shop a bit since he broke one of my hair brushes today. It was nice since I could shop around over at Big Lots today also. I was laughing also since we both hit the clerance rack at the same time. It could have been worse than the 22 dollars but, at least all of it was at rock bottom prices that I did pick up. There were also items for the truck also. I will not complain at all. Anyway I saved over 75 dollars in total without coupons today. That is why I say if you have a favorite junk/outlet store go see what they have. If you haven't been to a store simular to Big Lots or Ollies you may be suprized in what you can find in places like that. Now to get coupons for the van to go into the shop and get it inspected also this week along with the repair bill. What I will do along with the shop that I deal with they take the coupons that I give them and use the best one for me. Then the ones that I don't use they pass it along to the next person for me. It is like I don't mind doing it for other folks to save money on car repairs. I go without a car for maybe 24-72 hrs and I can walk everywhere. The shop is even within walking distance for me. That is how close I am to everything and will take rolley bags with me to go shopping with. Along with other coupons also so it is not that bad around here at all. Now for when I drop the van off I will get a cup of coffee on the way home to try to keep warm with for the walk home. It is rare that I do that but, well worth getting out of the can for at least 45 min. Pluss a chance to pick up cans for my wood burning stove when I get out of here also. One of the reasons of why I don't mind walking to get someplace also. Well now I can say also that the DOT laws for big trucks have gone complietly stupid all over the US. Pluss once the Qwelcom shuts the truck off it makes for a very dangerous situationon the road. This is why you see the 18 wheelers on the side of the High Ways and on the ramps now days. What if one gets side swiped from some drunkin or druged up idiot becuase that is how the laws are now. I see a whole lot of ticket's that are gonna be fought now. The new law is 10hrs in the sleeper and 14 hrs driveing. Well I have seen folks stop right infront of a driver like Oh They can stop on a dime even if they have 18 Wheels under them. Guess what they dont. At 35 mph it is 140 feet period. I wanted to get out and beat one woman half to death after being dumped out of the seat. Another time is when I had my ferrette I had took him to the vet in Illinois I moved to St. Louis after I made the appointment for him. I almost got the poor driver infront of me becuase the woman stoped infront of him. Thank goodness I dident have a 350 engine sitting on my lap after that. The lawsuits woulden't have ended for the elderly woman. I have seen way to much driveing the Highways and Bi ways of the countery in the past 20 years of driveing. Please what ever ya do don't stop infront of a driver at all you don't know when he is loaded with at least 35,000 lbs or more or not. I have seen mini vans holding up 53' trailers also. I do not fear the 18 wheelers at all. I still have a cb in the van with me so I can start in on the driver when need be. Or let them know get over or suffer. Ok folks have fun and play harder.
