You say I'm cheap. Ha! That's what all the boys say.

Cheapthiftytightchintzymiserly

I've been called that.

Craigslist - all over it.
Amazon - it's where I get my books.
Coupons - a million of them.

So for all the rest of you cheaptightthriftychintzymiserly folks, here's one of my little money savers. Put a tablespoon of Dawn dishwashing liquid in a spray bottle of water, and you'll have the best (and cheapest) laundry pre-treater EVER.

Jesus saves. Now you can, too.

Once upon a time there was a jerk named You.

Once upon a time there was a beautiful golden-haired princess named Me. She had a beautiful, yet slightly retarded golden retriever dog named Baby that barked too much and shed her beautiful golden hair all about the castle. This displeased the beautiful golden-haired princess named Me, but the beautiful golden-haired princess named Me had a shop vac so 'twas no biggie.


Anyway~


The beautiful golden-haired princess named Me began thinking about the jerk named you, and what a jerk named you had posted on Facebook. A picture of Pentecostal ladies, eating lunch at McDonald's which a jerk named You had titled "Tea Baggers". The beautiful golden-haired princess named Me felt quite sure that Pentecostal ladies did not engage in such activities. In fact, the beautiful golden-haired princess named Me found her sensibilities to be quite offended. The beautiful golden-haired princess named Me herself is not Pentecostal, yet felt quite embarrassed for a jerk named You. The beautiful golden-haired princess named Me is regretful that a jerk named You's mother did not teach him how to demonstrate respect for others. Especially ladies.


The beautiful golden-haired princess named Me pondered what to do to rectify such cruelty. Suddenly the beautiful golden-haired princess named Me remembered that her car payment needed to be in the mail today, and the beautiful golden-haired princess named Me was out of stamps.

Blogville: Day 2

Graph paper and colored pencils. Kick-ass sewing machines and rotary cutters. Medication and time. Chartreuse and citron fabric addictions. Space and light. Reading glasses - strong as hell, please.

That's all I need to quilt.

I'm going to blog now. Next week, I'm going to try microwave cooking.

Whoa. Lookie here. I'm going to start this blogging thing. You would think a smart ass like me would have tons to write about. And I do. Yep. Um. Let's see....

My name is Tex Montana. I'm not a dude, I don't live in Texas or Montana and I don't do any cowgirl-y things. I have a thing for tacky paintings of Jesus and Mary, peanut butter, the color orange and vacuum cleaners. I have two sons - Cal and Sam, a Golden Retriever named Baby, a cat named P-Nut, and a man named Neil. I don't discuss politics, I just vote. I spend all my money on fabric and Diet Dr Pepper.

Wow. I just blogged.

I think I'll do it again tomorrow.
