I have to cry some days. We have to make the most ridiculous choices. Heat or car insurance. Tank of gas or laundry soap. But never about food. I always find a way to make things from what we have, or what we can get from a food bank or on food stamps. I pride myself on coming up with meals... but now I know that that's part of the compulsion.
Justin got hit by a guy at work, yesterday. I thought for sure he would get fired, but he says the guy apologized and he had a really good night at work. I hope that's true.
We pay out an easy 2k a month in bills, food, and incidentals. We only make about 2k. There is zero flexibility and no room for errors or savings. We will never get ahead here.
