I feel similar. Payday came and went, I payed a ton of bills and all the money is gone. I don't have enough for groceries this week until I get payed from a few piano students in the next coming days. I have plenty of food for dinners, just no bread for lunches. It is so hard and sometimes I just want to give up. But you are doing the right thing. I've been working on getting rid or lowering as many bills as I can. It's a long process but it's really helped us with cash flow. My next project is going to be lowering my grocery bill. Somehow it's gotten out of control and I've been spending $150 a week for a family of 5. I know I can do better than this, but I still want my meals to be healthy. Sometimes I just don't have the energy to deal with all of my problems. This month is going to be especially hard for us because we have to register our cars this month and we'll most likely have to get both of them fixed before they'll pass inspection. I'm pretty sure all of my savings will be gone by the end of this month.
Good luck and keep on 'keepin' on'!
