The super-brief explanation (probably the best, here) is that I live with my disabled mother -- in return for helping her with what she needs, I'm provided with a home and food and all that good stuff. Unfortunately, her check is only about $1k/mo -- she made the "mistake" of being mostly self-employed during her ~55 years of being a working person (that sort of thing screws you over if you get disabled, apparently). So we're technically in the black, but only just barely. I really don't know how she does it -- but finances are total wizardry to me, to begin with...<br>

> A $75 want goes on either my birthday list or my Christmas list (depending on what time of year it is) -- since it's well past June, it'll be on my Christmas list this year. *shrug* it's just how it goes. It's hard, but what choice do I have?<br>
