Cost of Living...
....Last night I found our budget for when we bought the house back in March of 2005.
When taking the following into account:
Heating Oil
Gas
Homeowners Ins
Property Taxes
Electric
Our budget has increased almost $6000!!!!! And our usage has GONE DOWN!!!!!!!!!!
I didnt even get into food!!!!!Or the other utilities!!!!!!
The cost of heating oil...was $1.89 per gallon!!!!! My Electric was half the price and I used more THANK YOU LIPA for that surcharge !!!!
Looks we'll be eating a lot of Kraft Dinner!!!

Yes, it is sad. The middle class is slowly sinking deeper and deeper into this abyss of the economy.
