Working on it

Well I am still working to get things cheaper here in the household.  I guess that I will always be working on that part of the place nomatter in what I do.  With alot of it for the place it is on me to do for the household at this time.  Also yesterday was all down hill before I could even think about it for the place.  Ok so I do have days where things go out the window around here on what I cut out during the day.  With that being said here not very often do I sit around and watch T.V. untill I am in that much pain and can not do hardly anything at all.  I still got somethings done here in the household since it was the middle of the week here for the place.  I guess this is part of the reason of why I am always over doing it on the good days for the place at this time.  Also I will let the doctor know that I do not get enough good days here next week when I go in for the fallow up appointment.  Ok I never said that I was not busy on top of what I try to cut down here in the household at all.  When myself and my Husband here moved into the house almost 21 months ago here I started thinking then in ways to get the cleaners down to a price that I would not mind paying at the time instead of the more expensive stuff that I was using at the time for the trailer.  So I used up all the back stock that I had from the trailer undtill I could think of a way here to get that part of things done.  It also helped out that I was standing in the middle of Big Lots at the time and it all hit me right then and there for the cheaper side of cleaning.  With about 6 bottles of dish soap left at the time of the expensive stuff left at the time I ended up with the non ultra dish soap since it was under a dollar at the time.  That is where I started out and afew other things went on huge sale and I had coupons for the other things also while I was at it.  So now here since most of the things have been switched over here in the house for that part it has got alot better here for that part.  Also I will be in Aldi more often here and will check out the one laundry deturgent that I was using also at one time in the trailer also to see if I want to use it again.  I stopped using the one since it seemed to get really runny instead of the thick stuff that they had in the red bottle.  I had alot of the soap over flow with the washers when the stuff was thicker than snot with a cold.  I can still laugh since I had the cleanest bathroom in the Trailer Park with the laundry soap and the one washer that over flowed everytime I turned around.  With that said I was almost sick with the guy that took over the trailer and that bathroom was totally nasty within 5 months after he took over.  I told a friend about it and she about freaked out on it.  I guess that I try to keep a clean bathroom since things can go on and infections also once I think about it all here.  Anyway this is part of why I wanted to get that much cheaper for the cleaners.  Also it helps out when some people like my Niece that are wasteing cleaners also while I have my back turned. 

Hope

Well I already have one walk in today here.  I will take another one here today sometime totally.  So it is part of myself being cheap here for the household and I get to clear my mind still and think on things for the day here to go along with things.  This is what some have not got about me at all as of yet still in what I do here during the mornings.  When one of my neighbors found out last week in why I leave early in the morning here I am driving to a spot to take my walk and come back for the day here.  The funny part is I still get my mile walk in here that early in the morning pluss get left alone also while I am at it by going to 2 parking lots here that are close to home.  Oh well at least I get some activity here for the day besides housework all of the time at this point.  Pluss I make some money while I am out getting my walk in.  Maybe that is what got to some over at the trailer while I was there.  Also now that I am charged to get more of the housework done here this morning and on the cheap side of things, it does not seem so bad when I get home again.  Since one of the neighbors thinks that I am nuts for hanging out the laundry still after almost 21 months here it seems like he would get the hint at one point in time in what I am doing for my place here.  Besides the walks and the little things that I get done here totally it does pay off for what I do here.  I may as well streach out things since I have nothing better to do here all day alone.  Since I feel better when I get out for my walks here it puts things into light that I get to think about that has happened or about to happen.  Maybe that is why I do not mind doing what I am doing here for the household at this time also while I am at it now.  With alot of places being so close here to the house it is better for me to walk anyway instead of taking the truck all of the time.  Since the last accident I just do not like to drive anymore at this point.  I will say that it does save me on gas by walking so much and at almost 4 dollars a gallon again for gas may as well be a tight wad on that part also here. 

Back stock

Well my back stock includes shampoo, conditioner, bar soaps, laundry soap, dish soap, T.P., and food for the freezers here in the household.  There are other things here also for the household that I have here on hand just in case while I am at it.  Some of the neighbors have not got that part of things that I have done so far here since I have moved in almost 21 months ago.  Since I got 99% of it on sale or dirt cheap prices for the household here it has worked out for the best.  Also now I will be using alot of things that are here up so I do not have to shop hardly at all for things.  So now here that part of things will help save money here in the household altogeather here.  With that being said here what I am trying to do is go that much cheaper for the household since some people will holler nomatter in what I do here.  There is alot of things that I am doing here in the household that nobody sees at all that gets done.  Also since I have cut down on using so much of the cleaners and soaps here to streach that part of the household out and it does just as well as using more of the cleaners.  This is what I was trying to tell one of my Nieces when she was at the trailer and she would not listen at all about what I was saying at the time.  That was untill she got thrown out of the trailer for not thinking at all on her actions and had moved in with her boyfriend.  She had no choice in the matter other than to cut down at the time and keep it that way.  Anyway here at least I will say that the bills will come down farther for the household nomatter in what I do here.  The nice part about the whole thing is that I do not need to use much power during the week here along with other things that do not need to be on anyway as a distraction.  So now with that said here this is why I try to streach out things in the household and can use the back stock also for the place. 

Looking around

Well I looked around lastnight here in the place and I know that I have to clean today.  It makes me wander in why my Husband is in shock half the time here in what I have done over the weekend here without the help.  When I am so use to doing myself here during the week while he is gone and can do it all on the fairly cheap side of things.  Since I did get a load of laundry out also this weekend on top of getting other things done it makes me wander in what some people think of what I do during the day also here for the household.  I had my Husband get the other umbrella lines up this weekend so I can get more laundry done during the week here totally.  When the one neighbor asked why bother with the extra lines here for the household my Husband told him that so I could get more laundry out here without a problem and done within one day other than busting up the days for laundry here for the household.  I can not stand it when the laundry gets done on 2 different days around the place.  I guess this is part of trying to manage time and days around the household here.  So now here since I am trying to get that much cheaper here for the household the extra lines here will help out along with other things also here that I will try out this week here also.  This is where some people will freak out on me in what I am ready to totally do here from now on.  With being on overload on alot of things here in the household it will work out for the best in the long run.  Also now here things like the soaps and food will be used up nomatter what for the place.  My one neighbor does not get in what I was doing before and now I am going to be worse here on alot of things that have been going on over the past few months here.  It was part of the reason of why I wanted to get that much cheaper for the place here totally and to make some of the neighbors holler about it.  Since my Husband will not holler to much in what I do during the week here it is all good on my part. 

Thinking again

Well since I have been thinking here on alot of things I know that I can get that much cheaper for the place at this time.  When some are saying that they are broke and then I find out what they are doing here for where they are at now all I can do is shake my head on alot of things.  Since I have started cutting down here in my place yet again it makes me wander in what some are doing still in their own place.  Ok so I never said that I did things the right way and there really is no wrong way of getting cheaper anyway for the household.  I know that I have cut down on alot of things here in myown place here and shop for the bargins also while I am at it.  Just like cooking on the cheap helps out alos for the point of time that I am at still.  Things also like getting dish soap for 77 cents instead of 5 dollars a bottle here for the dishes and other things that are done with that part.  Sometimes I can laugh here since some do not figure that I am as cheap as I am at this time.  When I started thinking on alot of things in Febuary of this year and got dropped and did not want anything do with the person in May I knew that I was on the right track since I did not get cut down anymore.  With that being said I know in that I can do more here and have done more without a problem at all.  Knowing that the power bill has came down here totally without some and seeing that it would have been higher than 170 dollars that it was for this month when it came in by not using the dryer along with other things here.  I have also found out that I do not need alot here for the household with the cable totally.  I have delt without the movie channels for so long that why bother with them to have that bill up higher.  When you are that broke in any household sometimes you have to give up some things that you like for awhile totally.  Just like I did with the house phone here.  It has been almost 2 years here since I dropped that part of things.  That is what some if they were here and still here would not like at all in what I did at that point in time.  As I told one Niece you have the perfect chance to get a pre paid cell phone and to pick up the nickels along the way to keep the phone going here.  I got ignored on that one also so now I am getting the blame on that also here.  There are alot of things that I go with out and I am not complaining at all here.  This is what some never figured out about me at the time at all when they said at one time that I supposadly thought that I was a "Rich Bitch" on things.  I saved up my money here while I was working and got things for the trailer and I have cut back in the house since I am not working at all.  I am sure that some would have hollered about the grill and other things that I got also for the house here and I do not have to worry about it getting stolen out of the yard as much as I did now as at the trailer.  Since I am not spoiled like some think that I am here totally it is ok now in what I do to streach out the money that is coming in.  I scrimp and save for an item or items that I want in the household.  The last big ticket items were the grill, T.V., and lawn mower here for the household that I finally bought brand new.  This is what I get for being a tight wad in several ways that people like my Sister in Law did not get, along with others at the time.  So now with some trying to cut me down it reminded me of why I do not want some folks around at all when I am trying to get that much cheaper in the household here yet again.  I guess all of the coupons and other things were not good enough to some people in the area here and that is how it goes. 

Wandering

Well I am still wandering on some things here for the household here.  I may as well get use to that part of things here totally.  Now that I pretty much have known that I can go into the dollar stores here and feed the place yet again here on the cheap.  So as I sit here and think on alot of things for the morning it makes me wander sometimes.  Since my Dear Husband was in shock yesterday here since I was doing what I normally do during the week while he is not here at all.  That is part of the funny thing about things here in what I will do for the place.  Now with today I will be doing at least some of the housework here so I am not totally overloaded tomarrow.  With that being said here this is what gets to my Husband totally and alot of things get done.  Some folks will still be shocked in what I do nomatter what goes on.  I have noticed that since I have been trying to cut down on alot more things here in the household it seems that some people finally get in what I do.  I got asked in how I can do alot of things here last weekend and I told them that I have had to.  With what I was told here during last weekend here it makes my bills look like I am a total tight wad for what goes on.  Also here I thought my power bill was high when I got the bill here this past month and not anymore at all on that part.  I told my Husband in what I knew and he about fell over like I did.  I am happy that I do cut alot of things out during the day here with the week. 

Shaking my head

Well at least part of the worry is over here totally with some things that have been going on totally.  Since I have came up swinging here for the one part I feel good about it all.  Now I will be doing what I am suppose to be doing for my place and it will not be pretty around here after I get done from now on.  With alot of the things that I am doing at this point in time I will have to step up the game here on that part of things.  It helps with the back stock that I have got here in the household to get alot of things down.  Now I can work on the power bill here instead of trying to figure out in how I will get the soaps and cleaners for the house.  And yes that goes along with other things for the household at this time.  With this week I did go up to the water company to pay that bill for the house of course and asked in what I could do to get the water bill lower here for the place.  I got told nothing could be done at all about it and deal with it.  So I got to thingking about that part and knowing that we need to replace at least 2 of the faucets here in the household already to help with that part of things.  Since I hardly flush anyway here and take the short showers on top of it I guess that I need to get better at that part.  I am not worried about the washer at this point in time since I have a low flow one at this point in time.  With some not being here at all using my washer for their laundry and myself saying no to others who are water and power hogs at this time I guess I can be thankfull for that part of things here for the household.  With that being said here I have several areas in the household to work on totally and it will all come togeather at some point in time.  With the past weekend since I was down in PA here my Aunt and Uncle could not believe in how cheap I am while I was there.  Since I am use to one main bathroom here for my place I asked out of habbit if anybody needed to use the bathroom before I got in there.  We all started laughing about it once it hit them that this is what I am use to here for my own place.  So now at this point in time it had been awhile with my Aunt also and she forgot that I like my veggies totally here and I loaded my plate up with them for dinner.  I guess it is one of the things that I have here totally and that is how it all goes.  Anyway at least I can say that some of us are getting that much cheaper here in our places and some of us are forced to also.  Now with that part I will not get things like tomatoes at Target anymore here since they charge by the piece instead of the pound.  All I can do is wait untill the tomatoes come out here in the garden now here.  I almost said to take the mater back while I watched the poor gal ring it up yesterday while I was there.  Ok so I had to return something that niether of us could eat at all.  So now at this point I refuse to waste money on food that I can not eat at all here for the household.  Also now since Target is somewhat high on some things I will wait for another day for things that are needed for the place.  Also I picked up another cheap way from my Aunt while I was at her house this weekend and I will get some things totally here in my place that I never would have thought about here to do. 

Pulling old ideas

Well I pulled out an old dinner plan that I had from about 15 years ago and it worked here for last night.  I may as well do that part even cheaper around here also while I am at it all.  Even my Husband got the point here in what I was doing totally as of last night for a change and did not even bother to holler about it at all for what I want to do here in the household.  Since I still have a huge bag of rice here for the place I may as well use it up for dinners here totally.  Maybe that is still what gets to some people here to this day about in what I will do to cut the costs in the household.  There is still alot that I can do for the place before I am totally happy with where the bills are around here.  Pluss since I did get alot of the laundry done yesterday here and hung up outside for the day some have not got that part as of yet in why I do things like that for the place that use to come over.  Also I know I did hear some people that stopped over to see what I was doing yesterday here to be cheap.  I do not forget a voice at all here and I know in what the person was trying to do also.  Since I did not have my phone on me while I was hanging up the laundry and the person seen in what I was doing also it was one of the funnies that were pulled on the person that came over.  All I can say is never make the comment that oh you have a dryer and I can use that and not hang out the laundry that I have when some wanted to move into the household almost 20 months ago here.  Since that part did not happen at all here that is on them totally and I have got alot cheaper for the place since I told both of the people no at the time after I thought about it.  As I told my Husband lastnight here that there were alot of factors in the mix and I did not even have a good feeling about what was said and what the 2 people wanted to do here.  The poor man looked at me and said that I was more than right in how I felt since he had the gut feeling also that some things would happen in how I thought also at the time here.  Ok so I took the better be safe than sorry part of things here on what I thought about what could have happened.  I have also thought about in how lucky that I am on that I have the full run of the household here along with I can shop where I want when I want to do it.  Pluss I can come and go as I please without having to ask to get out of the household also while I am at it here.  Alot of the times granted I do not go out of the household except to take the poor dog out to do her thing and to pick up and drop off my Husband here also.  It comes to the point of ok I have to get out at times to do what I have to do for the household and I do like to get out at times here.  So as I sit here and think of all the things that I do here in the household and alot of things have been going to the cheaper side of things that I do, I do not mind it at this point in time in what else I can be doing here. 

Laughing

Well yesterday here I did get to some of the laundry here for the household.  Today will be even worse here totally between that and the cages that need to be cleaned.  Since there are several hot spots in the house here I may as well get started here shortly to get alot of it done for the morning.  I am just thankfull that nobody is here so I can get all of this done without being asked why I do it this way instead of their way in the household.  I have noticed that since I have been home here I have had alot of good thoughts on how to cut down on alot of things here in the household without a problem at all.  Also here my Husband has not freaked out at all on me in what I told him in what I wanted to do for the place.  Alot of things get done during the week here without my Dear Husband even home and that is how both of us have cut down for the household over the past 20 months.  The nice thing about all of what I am doing here for the place at this time is that I am taking a long hard look at alot of things to see where I can still cut down on things along with other bills here.  This weekend will be shot anyway since I will have to run the window units here and that does not mean that I do not have to do other things that are on the cheap side for the place here.  I know that I have said in other posts here that I am always working on cutting down on the cleaners for the place and that part will never change at all.  Also in between time here I have to get back out to Target to return an item that niether of us can eat here in the house.  Ok so I got some pretty good deals with that part here yesterday while I was out of the household this week.  One thing that I have noticed when I threw out people and told others no on moving in is that I can go to places like Target to shop now without a problem at all here and still be cheap on things.  Since I do not mind Target at all here and at one point I refused to go with some people that were at the trailer.  It says something in how things have got alot better here in the past 20 months totally.  There are other places that I shop at also that I would not figure on also for the household at this time nor 3 years ago.  So now here at least I can say also is that now I can get the off brand names and not think twice about that part at all for the place that I am at.  So now lets see what I can get done for the day here and go from there.

Shaking my head

Well as I sit here at this point in time I have noticed alot of things.  I had went down to Punxsy this past weekend here and I got to think alot within 24 hours totally.  One of the things that I noticed here was that I can get the place that much cheaper without hardly any problems at all.  That is one nice thing about going to PA with the slower pace of life also.  With that said here I have finally figured out why I have thrown some people out around the trailer and did not want anyone to move in on me here also into the house.  Since alot of the bills have came down when myself and my Husband moved into the place that we are now I know that it is not that bad now.  Also alot more things have been sticking around while I have been at it all.  In what I have noticed here is that since I do try to streach out things when I was in the trailer and kept that part here for the household also the dish soap is sticking around for longer time periods along with other things also here without being over used at all.  When I would say something to my Niece at the trailer about the over use of things I would get the answer of oh well this is what I want and you can not stop me at all.  Now it also explains why she did not want to go down to Punxsy this past weekend besides other things in the mix that I already knew about since her boyfriend tried to push his weight with me also 20 months ago.  So now here at least I can say that things have got alot cheaper here without a problem at all and will get alot cheaper since I have been thinking about it more.  Also it has helped in that I have switched alot of the products over that are lower in cost for the household in the past almost 7 months here.  With alot of it so far here is that I do turn more things off for longer periods of time since I have been home for the past almost 2 days and I was working on that part anyway for the place.  So it will make me wander in why I have not done this way before now with getting the trailer switched over totally before we moved and after we moved.  Now at this point in time I have figured that it is ok to put the leftovers in the freezer for a later date to dethaw and eat in the household here since we got the place.  What would have hurt some if they were still under my roof when we first moved into the house is and was that the gas stove was not hooked up for the first month almost here and the cable was not here also for the first 2 weeks also.  I used the crock pots, microwave, and the convection oven that I have to cook with untill the gas oven was hooked up totally.  Also while I was at it all I dropped the house phone also the first month that we were here.  So some would have freaked out on me for the 3 things here that went on.  My Husband and I joked around here that at least we had power, phone  and a fridge this go around compaired to when we moved into the trailer.  At least I can laugh at this time for alot of things that have went on over the years in what we did to keep the trailer and the house going without a problem at all.
