I just can't believe this. We got our latest water bill today and it is $350. That is over 2X more than it usually is. I called the water department, and they said that we must have a leak somewhere and to call a plumber. So, sometime this week, DH will have to crawl under the house to see if we have any water dripping anywhere. I swear it's one thing or another around here.

$350????!!!!!!!!! Hope nothing like that happens at our house as no one can get under our house! It's not a slab but when it was built they didn't make a proper crawl space! In fact when we boughgt the house the inspector had to LIE about what was under it because he couldn't get under it. He advised us not to buy it for that reason but the price was so low that we begged him to approve it and reluctantly he did!

If I ever got a $350 water bill I'd tell them to shut me off and I'd buy water by the gallon from the store for all purposes! Our bill fluxuates between $35 and $80 and comes every other month.

That sucks but at least you have a home.I have to stay with my family because my b/f left me after he found out i was pg and he was the only one working,so i could not pay the rent.I hope to get on my feet soon.But that is steep for a water bill.sorry

Peach, our house was built in 1918. So, yeah it's old and showing it, but I love my house.

mommylj---I'll bet your house is really neat. Does it have alot of character to it? Like think beautiful trim work, hardwood floors, you know, the kind you don't see so much anymore.

I live in bardstown ky

Cheer up, Blue Moon2007. Once your down at the bottom, there's only one way to go from there and that's up. Things will take sometime but at least you have support with your family.

Our house was built in 1915...and i love it. It's a lot of work, but if you like old houses it's worth it. My daughter's room doesn't have a closet and my hubby and I have been brainstorming on what to do in there. He wan'ts to add a closet, but I don't want to take away from the space.

Some of my family.Im just down on my luck right now,freaking out about what to do.I never finished school or anything and never had a job so far.Im 20 and been with my b/f since i was 15.He choose to keep doing drugs instead of wanting to have a family i guess.

Sorry Blue Moon! That's rough! I hope things get better for you.

I think we all hit rough spots at times and think things will never get better but you won't always feel so blue!
