stretching that dollar (or penny!) and living without a salary

[Guest]

We come pretty close. My husband passed away last year and we are

living off of $1345 survivor benefits I get for my son. Our bills are

right at $1200 a month. So, that gives us around $100 for any

emergencies that come up (car battery, tire, new kitchen

faucett,heating element for the furnace) and they do every month. I

am trying to educate myself so I can get a decent job for more than

$6.50 an hour. I have been a stay at home/homeschooling mom for 14

years. The Lord always takes care of us. We don’t have an abundance

but we do okay right now.

God Bless
