Hi all.. I'm a mother of 2.. and I think I have a problem. Shopping. LOL!! I loveee to buy clothes especially... and all the accessories and crap..SHOES, beauty supplies, home decor, my babies clothes..their shoes.. everytime i get paid i HAVE to go buy something, and i even start thinking of things to buy before I get my check.. like right now I'm thinking that I need to go get some hair color to add highlights to my bangs.. which would make me pretty BUTTT its not really necessary.. I usually end up spending all of my extra money within 2 - 3 days.. and have to ask my husband for extra $$$, which I know I should probably be saving instead of spending, but i can't help it!! I feel like my wardrobe isnt complete..and really it isn't.
I think maybe this comes from being raised by a single mother of 3, me and my sister are twins so everything my sister got..of course i had too.. and the only time we really got new clothes was income tax time..which was only once a year. It is a problem but not really cuz i Love shopping sooo much..it makes me extremely happy :)

I see no wrong in having lots and lots of clothes. My thing is shoes, if I could easily get my hands on more, I would at the drop of an hat.
If you are starting to see it as a problem, then take a little more control and give yourself the ability to shop when you get payed, but within a credit limit. This way you can justify your spending.
Though me personnaly, like I said before, think power to you, if you don't spend, I am sure someone else would. If you have worked hard to earn it, then you have every right to enjoy it.
