Want to lift but can't go to the gym

I really like strength training better than cardio. Who doesn't?! I have a dilemma though. I cannot in anyway go to a gym. My schedule, my daughter's schedule and my fiance's schedule doesn't allow for it. I am also VERY low on cash all the time as we have a tight budget just to make ends meet. That being said, all I have for weights are a pair of 2 lb, 3 lb and 35 lb lol!! I do repetitive arms workouts with the small weights, and definately feel the burn with that as I do very long workouts with them. I want to get 5 and 10lb weights now to change it up as the others are far too easy! The 35 lb weights were in my house when we moved there, and I use them to squat with. I like squats, and that adds a great deal of resistance for me. My question is, on such a tight budget, what else can I be doing at home for strength training? I can almost do a perfect push up since I have started doing some strength, and I am very proud of that as I have NEVER been able to do one (only girly ones). Now I can do a normal one and go almost to the floor with it :-) So, I need help. Ideas anyone?!
