Well, we are still surrounded by a sea of ice and snow and it’s been a lovely week of not going to work (not using my paid vacation for bad weather), but I definitely will curb my usual spending habits in a really huge way, over the rest of this year so that next year, it won’t hurt me economically to miss work due to *climate change* .
So, no spending today or in the near future. :( Just keeping household bills paid and stashing back extra income to hurdle the next bad weather scenario. |
I bought an adorable pink and brown striped sweater for Brittany. She needs it to go out in this weather - our nights are in the teens. I'm looking for a waterproof parka for her, for when it rains and snows.

Cherries! They are probably Peruvian or Chilean, but they are fresh and sweet and delicious.

Oooo la la!! A roll of burlap ribbon. Not sure I would call it ribbon, maybe tape? No sticky about it though..lol |
I wish I were buying a pair of cropped wide leg corduroys, maybe mauve, but A) I can’t find exactly what I want and 2) I neither need them, nor are they in my budget.
|
I bought a new swim suit: pearl grey shorties, with a black & white bralette; and a brand new pair of shoes for work. Got to protect my feet since I stand on them about nine hours daily at work.

Recently..
A taxi ride from Heathrow airport to the Hotel in Chelsea. What fun! They will be holding a sign with my name on it. Now, that's never happened before! Waiting for a new pair of toeless slipons to do some major walking. And paid for TSA pre check. Yeah, I'll be talking alot about my vacay! I'm on the prowl for a suitcase. |

I paid my tax preparer yesterday and I bought a few new bras at Target because I noticed some hook thingy’s on my sports bras were wearing out. Then I went to Best Buy and bought a new screen protector and ear buds so I can listen to music again. The person who helped me did a great job at cleaning all the tiny hairs stuck in my phone and the new screen protector makes my phone look brand new. Best Buy provides great service and product guarantees, btw.
And…, I stopped by a nail salon and bought a basic pedicure. Made my feet feet better. |
Some really prestigious skin care products at one the third the actual cost. I love my fashionista job!
Shampoo for Mom I also brought her home a vanilla frosty from Wendy's. A really beautiful floral traveling umbrella, about the size of an iPhone. I have a three day week end and I'm off to shop tomorrow for, oh, I dont know. What ever I think I need for my trip!! |
