Simple budget for a tight month - first time posting

I am $950 short each month and trying to find it. I do not usually post, so bear with me. The rent is fixed and the car payment is high.

Thanks for writing this out. I went through something close to it 11 months ago, and it settled down once I kept a simple log of every call and form.

Check for energy assistance programmes. I got a credit that covered two bills.
