I do agree, but I'm not on so many lists anymore so it doesn't bother me.
I'm still waiting to see how Wall St.'s problems are going to affect me. I
have the same income and outgo that I've always had. Food in the supermarket
seems cheaper than it's been...lots and lots of 'specials' at low prices. I
started buying them in bulk, but my pantry is full and things are still on
'special'.
My electric rate has gone up a bit, so I've gotten more obsessive about
turning things off when they aren't in use (a losing battle with 2 teenagers
in the house). Otherwise, life is the same as it's been for several years.
My son gets his driving learner's permit this month (and I get to put him on
my insurance...hope his father helps pay for that).
Still can't find a job (nothing new there), so I'll just plant a bigger
garden instead.
