Great weekend!

May 6th, 2013 at 01:52 am

The new job is going very well. I am excited to be learning new things and having more responsibility.

Some perks with the job are working very close to where I live and having a free to me gym! It's pretty dinky but will do in a pinch!

This weekend, the boyfriend & I stayed in Friday night. I met a friend at a park right after work & did a few miles walking in the park.

Saturday morning, another friend & I walked near my neighborhood. Free is fun!

I went to my nephew's soccer game & hung out with my family. Free again!

Saturday night was date night. We used a living social then went to this 80's arcade bar. Spent about $30 between drinks & games, but we had an absolute blast!

Today, I walked with two friends at a different park. Free again! Then I took my niece to see a children's play for my mom. She was supposed to go, but was ill, so I went in her place. Free tickets and $1 spent on water. Pretty frugal!

Afterwards, I spent some time at my parents & my sister & I gave my parents a gift of a B&B overnight stay in a nearby scenic town. We shopped around and got a great deal for $109 that included breakfast, coupons for local events and a $25 gift certificate to a local restaurant. Can't beat that!

Tonight, I skipped Sunday dinner with some friends and stayed in. Made dinner at home & already have lunch packed for tomorrow.

The house is a mess, but I was able to clean the kitchen and get some laundry done.

I am working on rolling over my previous employer's retirement & 401k to an IRA. I don't want to leave them with my previous employer. Gotta love paperwork!

    It's wonderful to have a job you like and even better to have it near-by to eliminate the cost and stress of a commute. Sounds like a pleasant, weekend with friends and family.
