Yay!! Lash, I'm glad you still have the strength to type.

Speaking of strength, I haven't been to the gym in months (mainly due to inconvenience), and I just came up with a solution that will not only help us cut back on expenses, but also literally save my butt:

I cancelled the gym, saving $45 per month, not to mention the gas to get there and back. I unpacked my unopened DDR with mat (Dance Dance Revolution) for our PS2 that I've had for over a year now. And, I'm going to use this month's gym fee budget to pick up a set of $40 free weights from Target (which also count as a business write-off, because the weights fit my camera crane). So, during the day, I can head to the living room, dance while having fun, and also use the weights for my strength training while seated at my desk when reviewing video clips. And, once the heat dies down, I'll go out for an afternoon walk on days I don't feel like DDR.

Then, after I have paying work coming in, and our heads are back above water and I save enough funds to sign back up at the gym, I'll use that to buy a Wii with Wii-Fit instead, thus increasing my options while still saving on gas and the monthly gym fee.

It's better for my body, my schedule, and our finances!
