Its getting harder and harder to make it on my SSI.

I was doing ok until stuff started needing replacing. $400 for new tires, $450 for new breaks, $350 dor my dog's vet bill, $400 to get the furnace fixed.

My food costs aren't too bad because there is just me and I don't buy any junk food or specialty drinks. "40 a pop for canned dog food for my IBD dog. $30 to fill my gas tank.

And I still have higher utilities and taxes and insurance.

EverywhereI go vital services are all higher.

December is always bad with much higher heating costs and my furnace is set at 60 most of the time.

Getting scary.
