I actively avoid credit cards to the best of my ability. I try the best I can not to get myself into to much debt. Trying pay cash for my needs, wants and repairs often makes things complicated. I need my car fix. I been drying my clothes on a line because my dryer tore up. My bath tub is cracked needing repairs! I been paying student loans for years! I keep hoping with my next paycheck I can fix some of these things but more than likely it won’t happen after all rent is coming!
I wanted to buy a house but the price they wanted I couldn’t afford. Mom help me buy a mobile home I am still paying her back for. I pay for lot rent which is only $245. I know that is cheap. No complaints on that I just wish I owned my own land. I wish I could build my own house! I think it would be fun!
I work 8-12 hours days. I spend most of my time at work or getting ready for work. My paycheck is 9 days away. I hope I have enough money to make it to work. I hate owing my mom gas money.
I want to learn how to coupon! I took a basic class last year. I might ask a friend of mine to teach me her secrets. She is amazing at couponing!
I really wanted a vacation this summer It isn’t going to happen got to keep working. Maybe if I work real hard now maybe next year I can afford something kind of nice. Maybe next year I can afford my repairs.
When my parents asked me what I wanted to be when I grew up never once did I say a person who’s 31 struggling to afford food and bills.. Life will get better I just need to work! A lot!

Finding something that pays $12-$15 an hour would definitely help. And, may efir a short time work a second job to get debt paid off. Of course it would make more sense after Talan gets a job cause otherwise you’ll be making kind of what you were making before with both of you working one job each. It sucks to work all the time but o know people who do and it helps get them caught up and debt paid off.
