That is, until I reach the end of my paycheck and reality hits; I have to split back on my energy expenditure for the rest of the month, or I’m not going to make ends meet
If you’ve ever lived paycheck to paycheck, then you understand the root of numerous of my struggles. There is something truly humbling about realizing that you have a fixed amount of currency coming in, and you’ll have to make due with that sum for a designated phase of time without exception. There is no one to back me up should I fall short on paying some bills or in case of an emergency when I suddenly need rainy afternoon funds, so I’ve learned to portion out my paycheck perfectly to last the entire month, and sporadically, however, things are miscalculated. That’s why I often end up going without Heating and Air Conditioning usage for the last fourth of the pay period. The first three weeks of the month I can live comfortably, and I freely operate my indoor heating and cooling system as needed. If it’s summer time time, I’m basking in cool and dry air straight from my central cooling device from the safety of my home. I keep the AC moderately cold, and I look forward to entering my cool paradise every afternoon after experiencing the heat outdoors. In the winter, I’m able to happily run my furnace and combat the chill of the outdoor air. That is, until I reach the end of my paycheck and reality hits; I have to split back on my energy expenditure for the rest of the month, or I’m not going to make ends meet. The last yearof each pay phase is far less comfortable when I can’t even guess about touching the control unit.
