I can only make jokes or go crazy- my property taxes are up $200 A MONTH since I bought my house 11 years ago- and the value just went down-makes no sense.

Well I guess we are still lucky to live in the U.S.: I am not hungry, I have clothes and I even pay for my own crappy health care since I can't afford the one my job wants to give me. -am I bitter? no not me ;)

  "Your health is your wealth" -thats what my grandmother used to say living through the depression- So I guess I'll  just be happy I am healthy-

I feel bad for those people in the U.S who are broke and sick- the government should give the 700 billion to those people!

yes I was young enough to be his grand-daughter but I have always loved Paul Newman. He was not only nice on the eyes, but nice all around. All men should have a little dash of Paul Newman-the world would be a better place.

Well tomorrow is August 1st the months are flying by. Has anyone started any Holiday shopping? I don't have any money saved yet this year to shop. I am too busy saving to try to fill the oil tank and all those other annoying bills.

Well now that I don't work Saturdays anymore, Fridays are truly heavenly!
