Now I remember why of the ups guys

Well UPS has the tracking thank goodness.  But it drives some of us bananas in how they ship things.  Instead of going to Earth City Mo.  keep it in the state of Illinois folks less waste in gas that way.  And with the Diesal prices out there good Lord on it.  Last time I checked up here it was 3.25 per gallon but that is the state of NY for ya also naill everyone in taxes.  Seeing almost 200 gallons of fuel going into a tractor trailer is an eye opener eather way.  And the new plate fee for the state was shot down this morning also thank goodness.  25 dollars more becuase of new plates that's uncalled for eather way.  Even though the plates here in NY State are cheaper for the 2 years than other states.  So I won't hollar to much over it.  Blue and yellow yuck is all I have to say now I liked the plates of when I first got up here better.  Pluss the state inspection with the money we all have to dish out for that also.  It amazes me that some cars still dont need to be hooked to the computer to send out to Albany in what is wrong with the car van or truck.  Like it is thier busniss anyway if the check engen light is on or not.  Sincors go bad all of the time and not enough money to go for the car.  But the money hungery bone heads as a politition don't see it the way the rest of us do.  Some do though see it as the working class so it's not all of them at once.  And another way to use the signs after the election is as a sled for the snow.  Ok so I am cheap and seen it for real as a cheap way of doing things.  Anyway since I am sitting here I will look at midas's web site for coupons becuase the breaks and a few other things need to be done to my van.  Now at one time I did have a Honda and loved it untill I landed in someones front yard on the 219 comeing back for a doctors appointment from PA.  There was no fixing that one at all.  Well I just can't stand moveing in the winter months and that is another reason why I just do not  like it at all.  Ok folks have fun and play even harder.

With the windows open

I have the fresh air coming into the place now with the windows open.  No fans no A/C going this is a nice thing.  I am saveing money here without the air going.  It has been an up hill battle for my house hold anyway to get the bills down.  I am still working on cutting the power bill down.  It is hard with all of the taxes taged up with the bill.  The taxes are more than the bill its self here in NY State.  Well now to just get everything off and not to use it at all for somethings.  So now to figure in what else to turn off and unplug.  For the gas bill thats not to bad.  I am on the budget plan for that and at this point I think they owe me money again.  And just maybe I can go without paying that one in January becuase I did over pay for that bill.  And another laundery day is coming up.  I will wait till at least thursday when there is a good day without the threat of rain.  So I will take a look around the place and see what else I can do to start saveing more money and slashing bills again.  SO anyway tonight I am not sure on what to have for dinner I may just have another pasta night again.  Who knows with me or it could be meatloaf.  I am running somewhat low on somethings around here so lets see where tonight takes me.  And lets see how far I get in the house today with everything that I really need to do.  I would like to bake but thats not going to happen today.  It depends on how I feel later on today.  Ok folks play hard for now and I will be back.
