COFFEE CASH
Do you like flavored coffee? The Hubbie does, French Vanilla. I do, too, some. If we make a pot of FV it is so rich, tastes like candy, of course add the milk and (cough) sugar! A small can of FV costs more per ounce than a large can of plain old coffee, much much more if you get plain coffee as the one cent item at Publix. I digress, as usual.
Here's a money saving hint:
If you use 3 scoops of coffee to make a small pot, use 1 scoop of the flavored stuff, like FV, to 2 scoops of the regular stuff. You will get a good taste of the more expensive stuff and stretch it with the cheaper stuff.
Think I'll go make a pot because it is cold in Dixie!
It's all about saving money, honey!

ME MONDAY
Isn't it silly to post something on your own blog about your own self? No.
It's cold in Dixie, we have our heat set at 60 degrees and we are living in sweats, flannel pjs and socks, slippers, whatever. True, it is cold in the house but we are sleeping better plus saving money. What's a stuffy nose between friends?
Interesting the cuts one can make when times get a bit desperate. Isn't there an old saying desperate times call for desperate measures? Did I just imagine it?
Any who, yeah, who....life can be what you make it, supposing, I am. Rambling on in this post, too.
Wondering what I would have done different, sitting here, life having passed us in many ways, still wondering. No sense in that, life is life and there are no do overs. Refusing to live life in the 'it could be worst' mode.
Best thing now is to look at the present and try not to fear the future.
A friend on Facebook posted this and I'm borrowing it from her w/o her permission, don't think she reads this blog so here it is:
When everything is coming your way, you're in the wrong lane.
We're okay, just stalled. How about you? Maybe we all need to learn how to play in the waterfall of life?!

TIP TIP
The tip for today is BUY a carpet shampoo machine. It will pay for itself with one good whole house carpet cleaning. We have an older model, the newer ones are even better. Watch for sales to save paying full price. Save up and pay cash, please. ANYTHING you pay interest on costs YOU YOU YOU more!!!!!!!!
Also, if it's raining outside, take your shoes off at the door, don't walk on the carpet. Turn the shoes sole side up (after you take them off your feet) to dry before putting away or wearing again.
