It just keeps on comming. Each Mo. he bails out something else. Im not sure about you but were pinching every penny and are running out of money around the 23rd of the Mo.

Neaver in 38 years could I not just put the money in the mail the next day of getting any bill. Now, we have to pay them by the one due next. Im ashamed of what my life has become..........& we did everything right, too !
