I make an easy target
Apparently, all it takes is one day of nice weather for me to get hit with the shopping bug. It’s still mild (for now), but I’ve started to feel twinges when I drive by DSW, and I’m getting itchy clicker fingers when I get emails about sales from stores. I got an email about the Ann Taylor Factory Store sale at the outlet mall that’s only a few miles from me, and now I’m fighting the urge to take an afternoon off to shop. It’s only the beginning of spring. It’s going to get so much worse.
Breathe deep and remember: I don’t need more stuff. I don’t need more stuff. I don’t need more stuff.
Epiphany: If I get rid of things and replace them, it doesn’t count as more stuff!
Wish I hadn’t thought of that.
