And can't afford them.
I never thought there would come a day when this would happen.
I mean I have always managed somehow and even had closets full of shoes and clothes in my day.
But things are so tight right now, this is incredulous.
What are you doing without due to the economy right now, anything?
What do you need most but can't get right now?
I know I am not alone in this.

I hope you can get them soon... It always seems like there's something we need and can't afford.
We need new glasses, too, but have to get our car fixed first. I'm hoping the mechanic gets the car done today so we can walk down and pick it up. I have meds waiting at the pharmacy but that's too far to walk...

@RebeccasFarm It's two miles from us but it's all highway with no sidewalks or even a shoulder to walk on. A car hit a guy walking on the edge of the highway a few years ago so we won't risk it.

@RebeccasFarm There must be some way where you can improve your financial condition?

@allknowing Without knowing where we are going to have a base to work from..a thing called a home..it is a bit up in the air at the moment, all the improvement that can be done..it costs immense amount of money for me to do this moving operation with fees..I have no one to help me move our things for instance so I will spend a good $500 just for that..without paying for deposits and application fees and hidden fees etc..so at this time, the improvement will have to wait. Just giving you a pic of what is happening and this is without health care costs due to infliction of poisons on us in this place we reside at this present time. Ugh, utterly exhausting my friend.

Things have become costly nowadays and we find it difficult to meet two ends. I can at least manage my basic needs.

With all the money you are putting out for rental apps and I can see why. I am doing without eggs. I used to have them 2-3 times a week, and now I haven't had ANY in a couple of months. I'm having withdrawals.
Isn't there a thrift store near you?

Yes there is a thrift store, see I didn't even think of that, but I have to be so careful with those as I am terrified of getting some sort of disease from items or even going in stores now makes me nervous even with a mask..I cannot afford to get sick right now due to moving.
Yes thank you for understanding about the rental apps..they are so greedy.
I hope you will get eggs soon. I miss eggs too.
