No Spend Days This Holiday

I spent money on:
12/24 – Christmas Eve. I ate lunch and bought dinner at the airport.
12/26 – Boxing Day. Met an old friend for coffee at the mall, bought bought some Sanrio treats for myself, and a few groceries. ($25)
12/29 – Monday. Someone ran the kids to daycare and brought me a Starbucks coffee ($3?). I also bought some cold medicine before getting on the plane. ($18)
12/30 – Tuesday. I paid my long-term parking fees at the airport.
12/31 – Got $150 in parking tickets (long story).

I did not spend money on:
12/25 – Christmas Day.
12/27 – Saturday. I waited in the car while desserts for dinner were purchased and witnessed one toll spent ($4).
12/28 – Sunday. I watched someone pay for a park recreation fee ($5).
1/1 & 1/2 – Sick at home and did nothing but read all day for two days.

My holidays were wonderfully boring. I didn’t really do a lot to see more extended family, mainly because my cousin was feeling too sick to come over via public transit. I almost never rent a car during the holidays unless my parents come too and I have to act as a chauffeur. Doing nothing but roll around the floor with toys, little boys, and a fun little dog is just fine by me. The kids are only small once and it’s been fun reading stories, playing peek-a-boo and Lego Star Wars games.

However, being sick really was horrible. The only upside was not spending any money. There is nothing worse than your ears having sinus pressure during take off and landing. Few things in this world make me want to shriek in pain.
