Fired


  Hello all well here's the story for the week. I fired my real estate agent. She had my house for 6 months and only presented me with 1 offer. Which was too low. I gave her a chance and I think when I spoke to her, she had given up on selling the property anyway. So, we both agreed it was time to move on. Now I am in search of a new real estate agent to sell my home. But this time they only get 2 months to sell it not 6 months.

Con Edison is killing people with their price hikes. It's bad enough that they sneaked in increases to make up for the covid-19 losses they suffered. People were not paying their bills, so they attached them to the people that were paying. Saying that Con Edison did a recheck of the meters and some other kinda bulls**t like that. Which allowed them to charge you more for less service. They are such a rip-off!!

I am scared that getting old and not having enough money to live on is keeping me up at night.  With inflation and the high cost of living. No wonder I can't sleep. 

                                         That's My Story What do You Think?

Expensive Knish


  Hello, all happy day after Valentines Day. Well, here's the story so far. Can you say New York is Expensive well it is. I went out to lunch today at Bens which is a kosher Deli. Food use to be good there but. It's not anymore and for 2 overstuffed sandwiches and 2 potato knishes the bill was $55 dollars. That's half of my grocery money for the week. My partner told me with things so expensive eating out is a luxury like going on a cruise. He's right.

The worst part about eating out is not only the expense it's that the food they serve is not good anymore. I find it tasteless. What do you think? I love that we have been getting nice weather in New York. Yea no snow and springtime will be in a few weeks. Can I tell you I am not a fan of snow.  Since I have to shovel it.

I can't wait to sell my second home the bills like water, electricity, property tax keeps rising and we are making the payments but that is money we could use for other things. I learned a lesson no more 6 months contracts for my new real estate agent. If the new real estate agent cannot sell the house in 2 months, they are fired. My current real estate agent has 2 weeks left on her contract and I don't think she's even showing the house anymore. She knows her days are numbered.

                                  So that's my story what do you think?

Expensive Cats


 Hello all well here's the story for the week. My feral cats are costing me a fortune in dry cat food. It's been 2 years and don't ask why I started feeding them. Felt sorry for them, I guess. Anyway the 16.5 lbs. of dry cat food use to cost me about $15.00. Now it's $23.00. I had to ration the food for the cats. I have 3 sometimes 5 depending on who comes to eat.

I am so tired of carrying an empty house. I told you I have a second home that I rent but it's empty because of the covid scare. Did not want people living off of me for free. I can barely afford me. So, the energy bill came in yesterday for the second home. It was $70 more than the normal price I pay. The billing for just carrying the gas into your home is crazy. They charged me $120 just to carry gas through the pipelines and the usage was like $40 bucks.  If you would tell me Con Edison is not ripping people off. I would tell you you're lying. Because they are.

                                                 So that's my story what do you think?
