That's the same price of the gym membership for a year. We're having financial hardship and don't plan on that being the case next year so it wouldn't be a hardship. I'm a little neurotic about where I work out. I like to get away from the house (24 Hr is only 1 mile away, we're on the cusp of a bad neighborhood, I should say). I like the atmosphere, I get motivation from seeing everyone else work out. Plus it would get my 3 yr old out of the house more and around kids her own age. My husband and I moved from our hometown, me for college, him for me a couple yrs later Anyway, both our fam's are 2 hrs round trip away and think we should always go there. I have one friend I speak to almost everyday here and her daughter is 19, and others I see once or twice a year. My point is since the gym has daycare, my daughter would have more trips out and have a chance to play with other kids, then maybe I can take her to ballet, piano, singing, gymnastics, or soccer. She wants to do them all and I'm a stay at home mom and my husband and I decided to pass preschool, let her do extracurriculars for two years so she can decide if there's anything she wants to stay with. We educate her at home.
