General Discussion

Heheheh. I'm a teacher and my husband works for the book of face. We hab no monies. All the monies go to car, rent, bills, and foods. Our rent went up a lil over $300 so now we gotta move. It sucks going from being able to afford a 2b2b, getting a raise this year, yet still with this housing market changing we can now only afford a small 1b1b.

[quote name="@Ossium" date="2022-12-01 18:38:32" ] I've been mostly sating my appetite on rice. Not very nutritious but it's filling. I've even been fasting and brushing/flossing my teeth very well in order to deter the urge to eat food that doesn't exist. It's one thing not being able to afford a home... but if people can't afford food? Then you know it's bad. It's real bad. [/quote] Please be careful. My dad got scurvy doing that. Please spoil yourself with a vegetable once in a while. Maybe get some tinned sardines once in a while - they're $1-2, and they can take you through one or two meals (1 on their own, 2 mixed with something else), and they are high protein. (Also, making congee (rice porridge) can make rice stretch a little further - not sure if that will give room in your budget for a little more food.)
