I have a temp filling in for me at work while I am off on vacation.
She will not stop calling me, to the point where I went all polite pitbull (as my dad calls it) on her and then I turned off my phone. How *bleeping* hard is it, after I spent two days training her on my job, to do it without calling me about idiotic things? Hmm? I am so taking the two hours (so far) of my vacation that has been spent on returning work calls off on Monday morning.
I am an emotional stress eater. Because I am starting to think that my temp is going to leave my office in a mess for me on Monday, I totally did the whole comfort food thing this afternoon. I could repress the urge but I know myself well enough to know that when I hit that stage, delaying means that instead of a small bowl of ice cream, I will eat the whole container.
I wound up spending $7.99 at the grocery store on a container of ice cream (my ultimate weakness is the creamy cold goodness) and a bag of oven fries. That was my TTC token money plus my coffee money for the day.
So I didn't go to the movies after all because of that. :-(
Stupid humans.
What Our Food Budget Looks Like In 2026

I don’t think you’ll find a place across the globe that isn’t impacted by
ever increasing food prices. Canada ranks particularly high with regards to
food ...

Wow what a fantastic blog! Thanks for linking to mine, I'll add you to my Blogs I Read straight away!
I totally relate to everything you're saying and well done for not buying magazines (To quote my boyfriend - "Why are you buying Tatler? You're not even posh!" - painfully true).
Here's a tip for your icecream (if you don't already do this). NEVER eat from the tub. You will eat loads. Always scoop out a few spoonfuls into a bowl and eat it that way. You'll still feel like you've eaten a whole bowl but you'll still have lots of icecream left in the freezer to get you through those other "must have ben and jerry's NOW" days.
Good luck! Will be following your progress!
Ooh this happens to me too and it drives me mad!
Great blog!
I miss Toronto, was listening to CBC Toronto this afternoon!
