Life in Pelham

At the Golden Coral last night Miss Betty, the cashier, tells me that she just moved into a new doublewide and that it cost her $1,000 to turn everything on. I am flabbergasted. That is amazing! The cost of everything seems to be exploding. Where is it all leading?

We've been trying to get some things done around our house this summer. It's been amazing at how difficult it has been. We wish to do some landscaping. We finally got somebody out and he needed us take out a second mortgage to do what he wanted to do. No thanks! Finally yesterday we got somebody who talks sense and seems reasonable. It's only taken us since may to get somebody hopefully lined up!

For some reason it is difficult to get people out to your house to get something done. Is everybody so busy that they don't need work? I wish I knew what was going on in this world. Not much has made sense with me in this country since about 1980.

At least it made sense to you at some point in your life. I don't think the country has ever made sense to me, period.
