Wake Me Up When Winter Ends

I have a whole bunch of stuff to update y'all with!
A whole bunch of nothing, actually.
My EI claim hasn't been approved (or denied) yet. I haven't bought groceries or gas in several weeks. Once I cover end of month bills this week and home/jamhall rent in a few days, I am officially dead broke, not a cent in my bank account and no more paychecks coming. I was told EI is generally approved in about two weeks, it's been three. I suppose the economic downturn and increase in EI claims Canada-wide is the explanation there. I've already called for (and gotten) help from the food bank, but that lasts about a week and you can only call once a month. Work keeps telling me things are going to pick up in a few days, their main client is just waiting on permits for a new development and then work will get going again... but they've been saying that for weeks. I also have a tax return to do, but not all of my T4s have come in yet. I suppose the upside is rent is covered, so things wouldn't become desperate until April and I should be up and going well enough again by then. Fingers crossed.
