This was a relatively good week of spending for me. I had a great time hanging out with the girls from work on Friday night, and spent Saturday afternoon with an old friend. Sunday I ran errands, which unfortunately meant spending money. But I kept my grocery bill low for the week, and picked up some much needed pet supplies for while I’m on vacation! :)

Didn’t bring in as much freelance income as I would have liked, but it was enough for me to feel comfortable.

Fitness wise, I was able to work out 4x this week without spending any money. I went on 3 runs (5km, 10km, 5km) around my new neighbourhood, and went to a drop-in field hockey game with my teammates.

* This is all income I bring in that is above and beyond my full-time job. Money is primarily made through my two blogs and my graphic design business.

    Uh… math error. 250+450=700 for weekly side income. I need to stop being so nerdy lol.
