New Year

No long tedious list of resolutions here. As Oscar Wilde said "I can resist everything except temptation." My only goal is to resist impulse buys in January. I know many people are on the 'buy nothing for a year 'train. I would never make it. I did read a really cool book last year called Not Buying It. I don't have lofty goals about being green or my spirituality. I'm just trying to reduce junk and maybe save a few $$ towards oh, say one of these. I hopefully will keep track of what I didn't spend and then not feel bad about spending it. Makes perfect sense, in a pretzel logic sort of way.
Today
no jeans $8.99
no latte $3.00
no cute baby bow $1.99
no earrings $2.99
_______
$16.97
Gee, only $883.02 to go.
