What's a Weekend????

Got to love me!

So you think you want to know about me?!? Well that's a complicated thing. Some people think I am a very nice person, while others swear that I am satan in the flesh. Some think that I know everything, and again others treat me as a dumb blonde. I can tell you that I work 6 to 7 days a week, love my family, don't know what a weekend is or what I would do with my time if I had one. I love the country, hate stupid Orange County people, and lived in Hollywood for 3 years. I believe in God, but don't think that one religion has gotten it right. I have a tattoo and want more, I don't think that there is anything wrong with body piercing. I think that you should be able to speak and read ENGLISH in order to vote or drive in this county and if that make's me a bad person, oh well, deal with it.

The Price of LInving in California

I go to the grocery store about every two to three weeks. I was last at the store about two weeks ago before I went last night. Now I don’t shop at any of the “fancy” stores, I shop at good old Stater Brothers’. If you’re not familiar with Stater’s, let me tell you it’s as cheap as you can get, price wise, without having to shop at the discount stores that sell seconds. If you are not familiar with these stores, Food 4 Less, Maxi Foods, Cardenas, etc, these stores are allowed to sell products that are past their expiration date. They are not classified as grocery stores, but as discount stores. My only other option is to drive about 30 minutes away to WinCo, who’s prices are comparable to Stater’s. Let me just say…

HOLY SH!T BATMAN!!!!!

As I was walking through the store I noticed that they had all kinds of “sale” price tags on items. I didn’t think much of it at first because we are coming up on Memorial Day. Then I noticed that some of the items that I regularly buy were on “sale” for what I had paid for them two weeks ago or more! Two weeks ago Coolaide was $0.25 per pack they are now $0.33 per pack and were on sale 4 for $1.00. Some of the food that I buy for Kira had gone up about $0.49 and was on sale for $0.25 more than I paid for it two weeks ago. Milk is no costing me almost $4.00 per ½ gallon. Eggs are $4.00 to $5.00 per dozen. I buy bananas every time I go to the store, not last night. Usually they are about $0.42 per pound and really nice looking. Last night they were $0.67 per pound and looked like they had been through the freezer! Gross! Most all the fruit was either nowhere near ripe or so ripe I need to eat it today. But if you want to eat, precooked, preservative laden, frozen Banquet Dinners they were on sale 10 for $10.

No wonder Americans are so fat!!
