Trimming expenses while I search, school bus driver here

I have 5 months of savings and I am trying to stretch them after being let go as a school bus driver. There are 11 people counting on me, so I am trying to be careful. I listed every subscription and found several I forgot.

I called the landlord and the card company early. Both offered a short payment plan, which I did not expect.

Ask your utility about hardship programmes. Mine knocked a bit off my bill for several months.
