I got my gas and electric bill this morning and it was five to six times more than I expected it to be and that it usually is. I called the company and it turned out that their meter reader, when he came, had misread the first two numbers on the gas meter. She tried to change the reading but was unable to, though she did say it would be changed later today at some point and I should get a new bill in ten to fourteen days. I had other things, important things, which I needed to sort out this week but now this has happened I can't think about anything else. I have heard such terrible things about people who have massive bills, have phoned to query them, have been told things will be sorted, and then things are not sorted and they end up with months of hassle. This reinforces how alone I am with everything and I honestly feel completely overwhelmed and unable to manage. It will be such a relief when this life is over.
