Lace up my corset more tightly?
Ha...you don’t have a clue dear. There is no TV here, groceries are limited to no more than $25 per week and that’s at Aldi and Dollar General, with coupons. I go out of the house maybe once a day unless I’m out doing an appraisal for work. The socks I have on are 3 years old as is my entire collection of socks. New clothes? Haven’t purchased anything new in three years. 99.9% of all products in this house are generic. My vehicle is 1997 with only liability insurance. My mattress is so old that I have to drap cloth over the springs popping through.
On the bright side though...I am a country girl. I will survive. My house is paid for, my vehicle is paid for and my major bills are the Utility and phone bills. I can live on deer meat, fish, and home grown vegs. I can shoot the hair off a gnat’s ass and have cleared out my freezer for the upcoming deer season. Geese are now migrating and picking one out of the sky will be no problem. I have wood heat and kerosene lamps.
So..your comment on tightening up my corset should be directed elsewhere...unless of course it was to begin with. In which case I just wasted 10 minutes telling you how I’ve tightened my corset and how I will survive.
