Day five - a miserable afternoon so come with me on a chocolate binge

Tuesday and work today.  Walked to work with my colleague who also lives close by.  Went out at lunchtime for a paper and two cheap chocolate bars.  I was very hungry by lunch time because I didn't have any breakfast so I knew I'd need the chocolate for later on.  I spent half an hour before I went home discussing a difficult colleague and how we should deal with the situation.  I felt upset just talking about it.  I had to go to Boots after work (an essential purchase - contraception - so I'll say no more about this).  I got a couple of small bags of chocolate because I felt down.  I need another way to deal with this work situation, rather than eating my way out of it.  It would be better for the waistline and the budget. 

My partner didn't go to the hospital today because our friend had relatives visiting, so he didn't get a drink or anything else today.  I bought the paper (no gardening magazines in Superdrug either) and two small chocolate bars - 96p total.  After work I spent £9.99 at Boots plus two 50p bags of chocolate.  Grand total for the day £11.95.  Obviously our budget is completely bust.  I need to earn some extra cash.  I'm going to look for things to sell on eBay.  Once I've listed something I'll let you see it.
