Every week, Ed asks me how much I need for the week's bills.  I gave him the total on Monday, and he shorted me $85, so no gas or groceries for me this week.  My gas gauge in the van is broken, so I have no clue how much gas I have, and where we have to go get gas is 20 miles away.  Cotton fields and chicken houses between here and E'prise.  Hoping I have enough to at least get check cashed and get bills paid, as I got disconnect notice on lights.  If not paid TODAY, they will get shut off on Monday :(

 

Thank god we have some food left in the freezer, thanks to The Grocery Game!  They have been teaching me how to stockpile, so even tho I haven't been able to buy groceries for the last 2 weeks, we at least have a little food left.  Enough to get us thru 1 more week. 

 

I'm so sick of living like this!  Once I get my first mortgage done and closed, I won't need that sorry SOB anymore, and I won't be stressing so hard.  THAT IDIOT!  Sorry for blowing up, but I'm so tired of his damn games!  All he can do is complain that he can't get his load delivered on time, he's out of hours, fighting with the broker......... ummmmmm, ok, but how am I supposed to raise our son, WITH NO MONEY?????

 

Once I pay the utilities, I will have $12 left over.  I'm supposed to buy gas and groceries with that??????  It takes $13 worth of gas to make the round trip to E'prise.  So that leaves my grocery bill where?

 

Next week had BETTER be a better check, or I'm REALLY going to come unglued!

 

I was going to take the day off work, so we could go up to E'prise and get errands done early, and hang out.  Guess I'll have to borrow JJ's van, so I don't run outta gas :(
