How do you block it out when you can't pay your rent? How do you "tune out" when your electricity is turned off or your cable is turned off? We just got the cable turned back on this week. Electricity is on a 15 day notice. I can pay the "past due" part, but not the current due part. It's hard to "tune out" when you are the single breadwinner for a household. My daughters are understanding and have cut back on all they can.

How do I "tune out" or "block out"? I've been spending a lot of time at church. Friends are donating 20 bucks here and there for food for the kids. But when you live in Silicon Valley and your rent is $2000.00 it's tough to make it each month! I've got $1500.00 and we're working on the other 500.
25% of my pay check is a big hit for a single mom.

One day at a time!

Thanks for your support!

Terri
