I'm tired of everything!
Since Mon. the price of gas has gone up 20 cents. and I can no longer afford to drive my car. The public transportation in my area is a joke so that is out of the question. Thank goodness I live within a mile of a grocery store and my child's school.

When is our Congress going to step in and start some investigations? I know I am not the only one who is feeling the crunch. It has had an adverse effect on every aspect of our lives. Food prices are skyrocketing and other household necessities, like utilities are also rising. I paid close to $400.00 more this winter to heat my house and I kept the temp. at 65.

I am just sick and tired of all of this right now and needed to express just a bit about how I feel. I could go on and on but it really does make me sick to my stomach.

Thanks for listening.

1. My grandparents' heating bill this year was AMAZING.
I'd never seen a utility bill that high. Of any kind.

2. And the sad part is, it will probably never be affordable again.
When was the last time prices went down?

I keep wondering where this will all lead.... starvation? people freezing to death? the end of civilization as we once knew it?

:shrug: :cry:
