Unemployemnt is REALLY starting to get to me now....
I spent this past Thursday hanging out at my house, on a budget. Normally on week days, I'm at Candace's, but Bryan got a half day because of the 4th of July weekend, so I didn't need to go over. So I woke up, went to the gym and then ran some errands. I signed up for a library card because its Free! Then I bought some groceries. Nowadays, I only spend money on food/groceries or gas. I was invited to go watch "The Hangover" which normally I would do without consideration, but since it was a movie I had already watched and I had limited funds, I decided not to go.
So basically I am broke and bored.
I have been trying to come up with things I can do for little money. On Saturday, Cindy and I went on a hike at Eaton Canyon, up in Altadena. We left at 8 so it wouldn't be too hot. Our plan was to hike up to the 50 foot waterfall, so when we got there we asked people how to get there. Unfortunately we took a little detour thanks to some dude, but eventually we go to the
AWESOME waterfall.
We packed a lunch and ate it at the waterfall. So that was a great, free activity, and it was an awesome workout.
Two other cost friendly activities I've decided to focus my attention on is learning to play the guitar and trying new recipes. Guitar lessons online are free and my parents help with the groceries/cooking ingredients. So today, I started brushing up on some guitar chords and I made shrimp and sausage jambalya for the family. Hopefully by the end of the summer, I will be a master chef and rock star! Wish me luck!!
