Last night I wanted to get out of the house, so I went to the bookstore and found no magazines or books I wanted which was fine. I didn’t think a trip to the discount fashion outlet shop would necessarily be dangerous (ha ha ha), so I walked across the plaza and browsed around the shop and found nothing I needed or wanted………until there in the middle of the accessories department was the holy grail of purses 66% off………..yes, it needed to be mine….it called to me….yes, I bought it, but I used my debit card. I know I had told myself not to buy anything this month, but I had been thinking about this purse since I saw it in a magazine last fall. I am telling myself now that I have to bring in my own food this week to work to pay it back….after all I did spend a few snowflake payments on it and those latest car repairs are still unpaid………I also I know I need sneakers so much more than this purse, but…………. Okay, now I’m back on the wagon which is rolling AWAY from the mall………
I got paid this week, and pretty much, it is almost all gone now. I’m finally seeing a pattern to my spending that I’ll be working on….seems I just LOVE to spend that paycheck! I do save off the top and then pay all the bills, but then I just want to spend what’s left NOW when I know I need to money to buy food and gasoline the coming 2 weeks before the next paycheck…….so working on changing that. I don’t want to charge food and gasoline because of my new purse!!!!!!!!!
I have a lot of things happening this weekend and a lot of chores to do so I am not focused on shopping/spending although I do have another dinner tonight to go to, but then that’s it for a while. I find I need to be distracted so I don’t spend. I’m working on that, too.
Well, going to a (free) pool party today and need to find my bathing suit. Won’t be bringing the new purse!!!!!! (probably won’t use it until the fall.)
Have a sunny day! Littlesbigs
