I picked my youngest niece up after school and we went and saw Tangled. I like to go see movies on Monday nights, it's the least busy. Including us there was less than 10 people in the theater. It's in 3-D so the tickets were $9 each. It was a really cute movie, we both liked it, but I'll like it when they get off the 3-D kick. It doesn't really do anything for me. Another $3.85 was spent on candy for her.
We went to Taco Bell for dinner, her choice. Spent $8.65 for the both of us. Then took her home around 7, still plenty of time to study for tomorrow's finals, which she says are easy. Geometry and History. History would be easy for me and I would be able to do Geometry, but I wouldn't call it easy. She has a mathematical/scientific bent, which is great. She was very happy with how she did on today's two finals also, she thought they were easy so expects a good grade. I hope so, she's doing so much better this year. She's always been super smart, just wasn't ready to apply it before now.
I used a coupon to get a $7.99 haircut at Great Clips. $10 w/tip.
My dad got a gift card from Sear's over a year ago when he returned a lawn mower he bought. It had $239 on it. He's been trying to find something to spend it on ever since. But everything is cheaper somewhere else than at Sears. I told him to take it to Kmart and buy gift cards to restaurants, so yesterday they finally did that and got about 10 different gift cards. At least now they can use the money up. They eat out a lot
Since my brother died dad has been saying things that I've been telling him for years. Like they need to slow down and do the things they want to do. They need to spend their money on themselves and not try to accumulate more. They can't use all the money they have now so no point in trying to increase it. I hope next year they both can really relax and not be so busy. Dad is really tired and I wish he could take it easy for a while.
I finished reading the library book Midnight Crystal by Jayne Castle. Sci/Fi - Romance. Pretty good.
