For any of us that celebrate Lent...just curious, what did you give up?
You could say that I've given up meat, but then again, I ALWAYS give up meat. It's literally been 10 yrs since I ate red meat, so I don't think the no-meat thing counts for me LOL. THat said...
I decided to give up driving to work for lent. It's a lot quicker to drive to work, BUT it costs a lot more plus it contributes to increased traffic + pollution problems + the gas crisis. I've decided that I will only drive my car to the bus stop(the bus stop is 0.75mi from my apartment, and I don't want to get myself sick again by walking that far in the cold winter weather), but from there I will take transit to work.
This no-driving thing ESPECIALLY pays off when I go to my club. The parking garage next to my club charges a "discounted" rate of $10 for employees, but $10 is still a rip-off. $10 is a small amount of money, but hey that adds up to about $90/month for me! Basically the parking fees eat up the entire waitressing/shotgirl monthly paycheck(I get paid $2.83/hr - taxes) that I receive alongside my usual tips.
LOL so far I have been more committed to following through for Lent, than I was with my New Year's Resolutions!
So tell me your ideas for Lent!![]()
