Anyone know any resources for utility help?

My gas bill is $600 at the moment and I’m scared they’re going to shut it off soon. Tried applying for a program through peoples gas but was denied. (I’m a single mom and have low income so not sure why.) Even reached out to CEDA and also was denied. ☹️

Anyone else like savory (non traditional breakfast food) for breakfast? 😆

We had butternut squash risotto two nights ago and steak tacos last night - combined leftovers for breakfast were fire. Other than french toast with bacon my favorite breakfast is spaghetti!

Working vs SAHM

Trying to decide if I want to go back to work or become a SAHM. We went through infertility for 3 years and had our baby girl in February.
I’m supposed to go back in a month but cant decide if I’d rather stay home. We can do it financially.
I do like my job but it also stresses me out at times. I would ask to go back 3 days a week if I did go back (already asked just in case, awaiting response) so I’d have 3 days on, 4 days off.
This may be our only child since I’m 32 so I don’t want to miss out on these early months/years. We also have inquired at multiple daycares and haven’t been able to get her a spot.
Advice?

To those whose default setting is a positive mindset, so you find that you only attract good things?

I'm curious.

Also, if you're an innate positive person, were you always like that or did it take a lot of introspection/work to achieve a positive mindset?

Going out in a bug group of people and splitting bills. What is your etiquette?

This doesn't include the tip and it is not about dating either. It is about when you go out with friends.

Do you think it is best to divide the bill evenly even if the attendees didn't consume the $ame?

Do you think it is fair that each person pays for what they ordered?

My son's go to a special school where all the kids are disabled or ESL. One of my boys has two best friends who are there for ESL. I want to get them gifts because they will be graduating this year.

Would it be unfair for me to just get his besties gifts? I mention they are ESL because I don't have to worry about getting them gifts that are disability dependent like I would with all the other kids.

They speak French as a first language and moved here from Cameroon not sure if that matters. My boys dad speaks French too.

Serious question

If babydaddy disappeared, kick u out during pregnancy because u didn’t get an abortion knowing ur also high risk he puts u out at 5 months prego. Then says he wants the child to have his last name , he wants to be there at the birth ect… am I wrong for not allowing him in the child’s life. I would rather him just take me to court but he won’t even know what the baby look like because I’m not posting any pics or sending no pics or announcing his name
