Times are hard

To say that times are hard in an understatement. The transmission went out on the car a couple of months ago and I can't afford to get it fixed. I can't afford gas to get to work in hubby's big truck but if I don't work I can't make the house payment.

The light bill was $70.00 more this month! Starting in October, the rates will be raised by 20%

Things are being cut back. No eating out like we used to. Ramen noodles, pot pies, tv dinners and beans are what I stocked up on. No unnecessary trips to town. The only bills I can pay are the the ones we need.

Petty soon, I will have to get the cable cut off and the high speed. Oh well, gotta do what I gotta do!
