Thank you Patti for this cute little Lemonade Award (but mostly for thinking I have gratitude and/or attitude). I kind of got a chuckle out of it because you have no idea that I have been on a big lemonade kick...maybe it's my yearning for warmer weather...and yes, I live in California and it's been spring-like, but I get really cold and I can't keep tapping the heater on because the utility companies like to charge me when I do that. Do you ever wonder how your bills compare to other states? Well I do! Here are my bills for this month...next month I might have to build a real lemonade stand just to help pay the bills! The neighbor's tree is loaded with lemons and they are never home...do you think they would notice?Electricity: $174.40
Gas: $132.45
Water/garbage: $94.38 (without a meter!)
Telephone (Home landline and 4 cells with unlimited texting) $184.86
TV & Internet fiberoptics: $87.88
Car Insurance (4 people with multiple discounts, good driving records): $375.00
Of course this doesn't include my mortgage and fuel and yadda yadda yadda...and the state of California is thinking about giving out IOU's for state tax refunds...good grief! Talk about a sour note...but that's a rant for another day!
I think all of my sweet blogging friends have Attitude and Gratitude so if you haven't received this award already...please snag this one and have a glass of lemonade....don't forget to leave your fifty cents!
