Rough times and I'm lost on what to do

[Cyia]

So, as being unemployed and so forth as of right now still searching for a dang job, my light bill has caught up to me and my power is being shut off today. So there goes my e-cigs.. 2 weeks smoke free as of today and all thanks so the mighty greedy electric company we are screwed so to speak. I'm literally thinking of not even going back to analogs, say F it and just not smoke or vape anything until i can get my power back on which could be a few days to a few weeks. idk.. the hefty 600 bill is not an easy thing to just pay off. So I'm also going to be missing from the forums for a while so i wanted to bid you all a short good bye and will see you all whenever i get back And I'll let ya know if I turn back to the dark side or keep the nasty analogs away. ciao

**EDIT**
My grandma pulled a miracle! We are not being shut off! -cries- I'm so flippin happy right now. I saw a utility truck drive by and flipped out and called her and low and behold.. she said she fixed it. Sorry about postin this, but i truly thought i was loosing my power in the next hour. Thank you to everyone again for posting, it means a ton to me!

wow Ciya, I wish there was something i could do to help. unfortunately things are tough around here too. work has slowed to a very uncomfortable pace and other means of income don't seem to promising either. i hope you can find help within your family or something. best of luck..

I'm sorry Cyia....remember you started vaping to stop smoking, you've made it 14 days now... You don't want to be a smoker anymore, cigarettes hold no answer, they are expensive and they kill you... You can do it. Don't give in.... be an ex smoker!! You don't have to get through the whole day, just get through the next 5 minutes...5 minutes at a time...

i saw this thread in PIF...I want to Give Away to those in need.
you might want to check it out, it could help with your vaping anyway

Have you looked into some of your state organizations. They might be able to help get the electricity turned back on.

Thank you all for the suggestions. I have been looking into things, since i live in section 8. But due to it actually being nice weather out side, and since we don't have a disabled person or elderly in my house hold or an infant, those will be the only ways of them not shutting it off. I've looked for places to help pay but all are out of funds till the first Going to try then. I'm crossing my fingers and toes that we can pull maybe a payment plan with them, but most of the time they want a % down and that's usually 80% of the bill.. ouch right? Oh well, we will figure out something soon. Just awaiting the doom to come in the form of a white truck atm lol

If you already have the juice and atties and the problem is just power, you could always charge your batteries at the good old local library. At least around me they all have computer labs and don't restrict you from using the usb ports. Wall plugs are open to public use at mine too.

Oh i didnt think of that one. Good suggestion!

+1 on the PIF forum. Great group of people on there and they'll help you out with any vaping supplies you might need until you get back on your feet again. Stay off the analogs, whatever it takes.

Thank you for the reading sounds great and I'm going to keep my chin up as high as it will go without smacking something above me lol! I am going job hunting today and trying to sign up with a collage. I'm am going to pull my self so far outta this hole they are going to need some more seats up in the clouds for me

We have never talked, but I am rooting for you. Get out there and give'em hell!

We all need a hand up every now & then...glad you found one

too many of us have been there too often. When ever I hit a low spot, I always end up repeating a phrase in my mind "breakdown, breakthrough, breakdown, breakthrough...". I don't know why, but it reminds me I have the strength to pull through anything.

Patience is a virtue, but persistence pays. Keep your head up, and you will find your path.
