Oct 2022

But I have three jobs so I just keep working. The food prices don’t scare me so much, but the maintenance on the house is increasing so much. Just got a new roof for 24,000 which three years ago would’ve been 18,000. Now I need a new gutters which will be 2000. My air-conditioning will have to be replaced in the next few years. Thankfully I already painted the inside and outside of the house two years ago. I can’t imagine how much that went up in price. Life goes on.
