To curl or not to curl

Well I just finished my dinner. Tonight I had Kraft dinner which is actually something I really enjoy - and never make!! I ate half the box and have enough for dinner lunch tomorrow. I was also able to feed my 2 year old some too! I did use ketchup from my house so I’ve added .25 to my tab on the fridge for using condiments that already exist in my fridge.

Tonight is my night for curling. I would say that my real challenge for tonight could have been a challenge card. I wasn’t going to curl because it was going to cost too much but then my team was down to three with one person sick and the other not having a babysitter lined up. So I’ve arranged a ride from someone on my team to save on travel costs to the game. I am also going to pay the spare fee rather than 1/21st of $330 which is what the season cost me. I know that if I was in the situation of having only $63 per week to live on that curling for an entire season would not be possible. I would have to be put on the spare list. So I feel comfortable deducting the spare fee which still isn’t cheap. So tonight in total will be costing me $10 from my budget and I will be drinking water upstairs but tonight one of the teams posted that they will be bringing snacks for after the game! I was thinking that I know triple play exists for children in the community but are there any subsidies for adults to be active and envolved in sports or health and wellness activities? It is so important for personal health and mental health to be involved in physical activity.
