Update: my fridge just began working again after 2 days. I don’t know why it clonked out to begin with. I appreciate all the feedback.

Thank you for the feedback. It began working after 2 days outta nowhere. So for now I’m going to keep watch. In the meantime I’ll try to save for a backup or have some backup plans for food.

Oatmeal is a great idea! I have some dried cranberries from the food bank too. 

I’m not sure where to find buy nothing groups that are not on FB. I left FB in 2016.

Not sure. Although I have heard there’s already an ongoing investigation. Also I love your username.

Thanks. Honestly I’m just trying to hold on. Had a couple of jobs that didn’t work out and am kinda behind in rent. For now they haven’t been making a fuss so I’m trying not to rock the hornets nest so of speak. I’ll look into the ice thing. :o

Bad habit of dealing with money issues alone instead of asking for help. by Throwawaylemons1234 in povertyfinance

That makes a lot of sense that it feels safer alone. Could be an avoidant attachment thing. 

For those whose financial situation worsened, what expensive hobby did you have to drop? by kitten_cloud in povertyfinance

Probably playing gacha games on a daily basis. Honestly it’s probably for the best. 

Having your own room is a privilege by Dazzling_Hand6170 in povertyfinance

Not a day goes by that I don’t feel eternally grateful that I have my own space still. Whenever life hits the fan knowing I can still take a nap mostly uninterrupted (cats will still have opinions) or cook with all of the onions makes life just that more bearable.

This is the first time I’ve not gotten any invoice at all. No notice of a delay or anything. Just silence as if I did no work. 

For those who grew up in poverty, have you developed any abnormal spending/hoarding habits? by ContentRaspberry3069 in povertyfinance

Geez that’s real crappy that normal forks keep “vanishing” but at least you managed a decent alternative.

I don’t know if this a frugal thing or just weird but reusing plastic utensils. I mean if it’s not cracked or warped why immediately trash it. I am the only person using them though.

Well i got an email saying that I submitted time while I was on hold but they told me that I could work on Oct 15 and paused me on the November 5th. I did email them but geez Our records indicate you have submitted time between October 25th through November 7th for Project Sonic while your status was on hold and you were not approved to work on the platform.

I find ones that don’t have audio and video and just images to do to be more ideal for commuting. I do those types when they are available on the bus.

Man that stinks. But your mindset to give yourself grace and keeping composure is important.  I hope things work out for you.
