We went out to eat twice this week – Saturday night we ate at Subway to celebrate BF finally completing his paramedic licensing testing. A year ago, we probably would have gone out to a nice restaurant for dinner, and part of me feels really guilty that we didn’t celebrate in a bigger way. But that’s where BF chose to eat that night, and I think we both know that we have other things to focus our money on! Other than that, it was a normal week of spending and kind of a crappy week for bringing in extra income. I splurged on The Grand Magnolias album on iTunes, as well as tape for my field hockey stick.

* This is all income I bring in that is above and beyond my full-time job. Money is primarily made through my PT job with the Toronto Star, my graphic design business, and this blog.
