The Water Bill
I was happy to see our water bill slip through the mail slot in our door today. We need proof of address to do everything here and bills are the best way to prove your address.
My happiness was shattered when I opened the bill and saw that it was for 260 pounds. “Are you going to kill me or should I just kill myself?” I said as I dropped the bill on the table in front of my husband.
“This can’t be right.” He picked it up and examined it closely.
Fortunately we discovered that it is a bill for an entire year of water and sewage service. We have the choice of paying it all upfront, paying for it six months at a time, or paying it monthly. That’s a relief. Once we realized that, my heart started beating again.
