Day 112: Grocery Day

 

I can't believe how much groceries have gone up over the last few months, and then I heard the other day that they are going up again. I got half a trolley load, and it cost $299 and some cents. And then in the other shop it was $265 and some cents...and that was without buying hardly any meat. Seriously, I don't know how people can afford to live on their own, pay rent, all their bills, fuel (which is ridiculously high right now) and still afford groceries; let alone food for a pet. I just know that for 3 cats it costs $80 a fortnight. The second most expensive thing on our grocery list is buying the school lunch foods and snacks. They cost a fortune. Mind you every single week I come home and I have forgotten something important like carrots, or milk, or bread; something we use every damn day.

Then I come home and everyone buggers off so that I can put everything away in the right spots. It drives me bonkers when people rearrange shit on me. I wish my pantry was a little bigger, but we have to live with what we have when we're in a rental

Until tomorrow, remember: If you don't eat, you don't poop; and if you don't poop... you die.
