Well fuck, there goes any plans getting anymore food. I fucking hate my life.

Maybe we should become like Russians. Accept that life is mostly awful with a few moments of happiness.

I'm trying to keep a hold of my stress and anxiety but I think it's blowing out.

I won't feel better about it till tomorrow or the day after to see if I can get some extra payments come in hopefully.

Totally ruined my plans for for the next few days.

It’s an underrated philosophy 😂

What’s wrong dude? Do you at least have some basic food to last you a few days or can get some?

I can find some resources

Edit: Food organisations

(If you have or can get basics) Boris's budget cooking

Ps. I hope this isn’t as serious as it sounds and that I’m only jumping to conclusions. But this isn’t a sneak diss or anything, the economy being what it is I instantly worry when someone says they can’t get food

I got enough food in the freezer, tons of pasta and noodles to get me by.

I was hoping to be able to treat myself to some extra food like homemade burgers and stuff but something unexpected happened and drained my reserves to be able to do that.

Also can't afford to fill up on petrol so I'm basically going to save as much travelling as I can for the moment.

Oh good. Well not good, but not dire.

Sorry. I just saw ‘can’t get more food’ and panicked.

I wish I had more bread however.

i'm hoping for a few things to fall into place either tomorrow or next week that might enable me to pick up some stuff.

Fingers crossed, unexpected financial hits are terrifying
