Never forget who's in charge of your money!
Never forget who's in charge of your money!, you are.
I just saw where one 'service' was taking like $75.00 from account monthly, for different things, so I called, all this two step verification stuff...well I've since changed my phone number many times, and on top of that never meant to sign up for two step, did it by accident...but telling them this for 3 months now..blah blah blah.
'Sorry, if you want to end 2 step, you must send in Gov I.D...blah blah'
I told them I don't do that, not in this day and age of identity theft, I only do that in person or when request by official Gov agency...they kept repeating their rules, so I said screw it, I'm the one paying you all, I pay your salaries, you're not paying mine, I'm giving you my money, you've given me none!
So after that, went and cut off their payment method on everything...now next billing cycle, they won't get a penny, and will be trying to call, but won't answer till ready.
Never forget who's in charge of your money, you are.

The thing about me is I never forget I don't need 'nothing', companies, marketers make us think we need this, need that, but we don't.
All wee need is water, oxygen, and food...everything else is extra, that we pay 10's of 1000's for, even millions for, over our lifetime, for extras that we actually do not need.
So when any company or place tells me what I need, I remind them quick, that I don't need 'it', and end service or payments, that's how you begin to take control of your money situation again.

Heck, even 'Prime' tried suckering into a $15.00 a month membership, which isn't bad for a person who uses all of that, but I do not! I think like in a month, have only watched like 2 movies, and not even all of them...
15 dollars a month comes to 180 a year!
I don't need the service, this is how we get suckered out of so much money over the course of a year and then wonder why we can never save anything, a service plan here, a service plan there, auto payment here, auto payment there, not having it anymore I'm cleaning it all up!

One more shift of work, then I think I get 4 days off, hopefully.
If I worked normal job where had to work 5-7 days a week, I'd have no life, I already don't really have a life, outside my own place, and am off 3-4 days a week, that's like a vacation every week, but I don't do much with my time off, I need to though, like start going out and photographing stuff, myself, creating neat portrait shots and all, or people shots.
I've been everywhere around here though, so nothings new to me, would have to drive 40 miles outside of city limits for adventure, but now days people see you venturing around, next thing you know here comes the swat team, but maybe I need that...
What I mean is nothing seems to happen, good or bad, unless in the media and get press, otherwise you just grow old and fade away.
If I were in a park reserve photographing rare flowers, and the swat team showed up, I could ride that story for years, get a book deal and all, maybe cast in a movie.
I need to take all my cameras and cams and just record stuff, film stuff, photograph stuff, dogs, people, cars, the water, rocks, insects, birds, maybe that's what I'll do when off...pretend I work for National Geographic magazine and just go exploring with cameras at hand.

I think America headed down some dark economic times with Biden/Harris
Was just listening to a talk radio show and the host was naming off all the hundreds of millions that will be sent to foreign nations in this latest covid bill.
Donald J Trump is refusing to sign it if people aren't given more than a measly $600.00 while even Pakistan gets like $25 million, Sudan gets like $85 million, 'Asia', gets like $125 million, Ukraine gets like $400 million and the list goes on and on, yet the American people only get a measly $600.00, what a joke.
$600.00 dollars?
What's that?
Our politicians are sick people, dolling out 100's a million to all these foreign nations and other 'groups' and 'projects' that have nothing to do with covid relief.
Now we see who Congress and Senate really works for, I mean what a scandalize money grab, and had not Trump pointed that out, no one would of said a thing, not a Rep or a Dem, who both seem to enjoy sending our money to foreign lands and other 'special interests groups' that they dine with while up on the 'Hill'.
I feel Trump was the only politician keeping us 'safe' from this abuse that both Rep and Dems like to dish out to us the population.
No one spoke up about the absurdity of this bill other than Trump...Trump won the election, he's the peoples President, and now corrupt behind the scenes operatives rigged election and put Biden in there.
More masks, more small businesses going out and more giving our money to foreign lands, more sucking the wealth out of America, more destroying the middle class.
Trump was so badly trying to protect us.
The Democrat party has been hi-jacked by some very dark intentioned people.
They are going to destroy America, and the Republicans will just stand back and watch them do it.
With Trump gone, there is no sanity anymore in D.C., just theft.

Not much to say right now, don't forget to support home grown businesses who are suffering with this oppressive covid hysteria. The Mayor of New York and it's Governor should both be recalled for destroying so many lives. Someone at the 'top', is now trying to make middle class white folks as poor and desolate as traditionally non whites have been. Which tells me these Governors, even Biden, and most of Congress and Senate, are taking their orders from 'China' and other foreign powers who have bought of our politicians, sad to see occurring actually, very sad. And nothing can be done about it unless a real live civil war were to break out with ammo and all, but who's going to do that? The 'hard' generation from the 60's and even the rural tough types from the 70's and 80's, are all gone now, or to old to care, and their hobbits and grandhobbits, who would now be adults, are flip flop wearing, Starbucks types. Other than Antifa types, who work for foreign entities also. It's sad to see this go down like this, very sad, Biden/Harris won't deliver nothing for the American poeple, they'll simply re-open up the flood gates and let millions of more people pile in, and with jobs already hard to come by, that will be the end of America as we know it. Those who voted for Biden have got to be among the stupidest people on the planet. But sadly their stupidity will effect the rest of us...and you know what, racism will still be here. The way I see it, I'd rather have racism and prosper than racism and not prosper. Just saying. Things will only get worse over the next few months as the last man in American History elected to Presidency who actually cares about people, cared about people, cheated out of second term. It's sad what's going to occur here soon.

If all you do is work, your distinct looks go away
I notice if all you do is work all the time, your features become dull and bland, meaning how you look, meaning your face, hair ect.
I notice with myself, when have many days off, I just look better, maybe cause I'm happier?, I don't know, and maybe cause I have more time to 'tend to self', as in groom properly before leaving place.
But I notice that when people just get up daily for work, work long hours, for weeks, months, at a time (at least in blue collar realm), your looks just begin to fade and you begin to take on a dull, featureless bland type of look, which can contribute to depression in my opinion.
IT's like the world goes after your spirit first, and then if not careful, your looks soon follow.
And then you stop enjoying what you see in the mirror.
Remedy?
Don't work any job or hours that robs you of your natural beauty and inner spring time joy.
Don't hand that over to the world, for when that part of you is gone, so are you.

You buy food, meat, leave it in fridge thinking you can get to it and cook it, job works you such long hours that you either got to cook it, freeze it or it rots.
Well I chose to cook it real quick, even though fighting time.
Lamb and Chicken...steamed the chicken, fried the lamb chops.
When you have no one to feed but yourself, a lot of good food can go to waste, but then can get fat or gain weight trying to eat it all, so shopping has to become a science, know what to buy, what can eat before it rots, and so forth.
Simple stuff, I know, but still look in own fridge and see how much stuff just sitting there you haven't touched in a while and or never plan to.

Just found out one vaccine is like only 66% effective...well heck my own bodies immune system is more effective than that!
So I should let some gene altering substance be pumped into my body...for what?
So some behind the scenes scientist can study the reaction and results at my bodies expense?
Much more to follow folks, time is squeezing me right now...but still I look in the mirror, and make sure I'm groomed...can't let the world steal your looks, no matter what you're going through...groom, to inspire self and others.

Really just burned out on it all Really just burned out on it all, industry, metal, machines, noise, bright headlights at night that blind your eyes, large trucks, trains, anything to do with industry, I'm just burned out on it all, it really doesn't serve me anymore, and when younger brainwashed to admire it. But when older, realize just a slave to it. I guess I just never learned to harness it fiscally, like investor's do. So instead of owning industry, I'm a slave to it I suppose. I could spend rest of my life on remote Island, but not a tropical Island, why?, to many insects on tropical Islands, I'd rather live on a Pacific rim type of Island off the coast of Oregon or something, a more cool or moderate weather type Island, or just somewhere in the mountains, anywhere away from industry.

Yes, this is why I fight so hard to 'look good' no matter what, cause I never want to look like I belong in my blue collar job position, rather I always want people to look at me and think... 'Gee, they look more like a athlete or movie star, I wonder why they're here?' Like in the movies when someone like Tom Cruise, or a younger Burt Renolds, and any other handsome male/female actor cast in a blue collar role, yet they still always look more stunning and fit than all those around them, well that's what I strive to be, and I do it for my own moral, not for others, but for my own moral. I never want to look like I belong in a lowly, grey, dull place or environment.
