Budgets and Finances in New Diary

I was on Snap benefits. I was getting $64 a month in food stamps. Since I am no longer -paying for a/c I had to call Charleston and report the changes. I found out that my food stamps will go down to $16 a month. This I s a big blow to the finances and I will have to give up a few things such as cable and cigarettes.

I never watched that much TV anyways but I liked having cable. It kept me company at night. Like to watch Jeopardy in the evenings and Dr. Phil in the afternoon. I like to watch the news on CNN. There was one show I liked to watch and that was Law and Order :SVU. But I will have to give it up I liked having TV but I like having food even more

As for the cheep cigars I smoke I will be much better off without them. One of my biggest fears is getting cancer and having to go to Pittsburgh for chemotherapy. I do not have a car and there will be no way I could g et up there for the treatments. If I could quit smoking I will not have to worry about getting cancer. Plus I would be saving about $37 a month money I could be putting to better use such as buying ebooks. It would be worth it.

I intend to quit and will quit on December 4 of this year.
