I must be rich though, because I am spending money like there is no tomorrow! I think it's the weather - it makes me feel like a million bucks! I can't stop smiling! I can't stop using exclamation marks!! See, there I go again! I get in my car, roll down all the windows, crank the tunes and sing at the top of my lungs! I think to myself, where can I go?? Oh, I know, I'll just return that bicycle helmet I bought the other day at Walmart because I don't really need it since Michael found mine tucked away in the furnace room. Oh, now that I'm here I think I'll just stroll on over to WINNERS!!! Because, yes, I am a WINNER!!
Two hours later I've really won the lottery because EVERYTHING FITS AND LOOKS GREAT!! Maybe I should look around some more, try on a few more dozen things...I'm on top of the world. What a difference losing a few pounds makes on my small frame. I'm ready to go on TOP MODEL!! Wheeeee! I have spring fever! Thank goodness tomorrow is Friday because I am going to CRASH AND BURN! I hid the receipt so I can't look at it and bemoan the fact that I am SILLY!! I didn't need anything that I bought - I just darn well wanted it!!
And I haven't even gotten to the shoe stores yet!! SAVE ME SOMEBODY........!!
The grass is green,
ReplyDeleteThe sun is riz,
What a silly that Jane is! :)
Sometimes you just have to go with it, Jane. You sound like you're on top of the world, and what's wrong with that? Not helpful, I know, but happy is worth a lot more than fretting about some new clothes, right?
Must be in the fresh London air, Jane, cause I bought a new lens! ;)
ReplyDeleteYou stay out of that shoe store. I bought a new patio umbrella and three plastic table clothes for the deck. Our broke in a wind storm and the clothes from last year were shredded. But I still spent money!
ReplyDeleteHappiness! Life is good!
ReplyDeleteYou sound so happy Jane!
ReplyDeleteSft x
Can life be TOO good??
ReplyDeleteHappy in a hysterical kind of way :o
ReplyDeleteBut you NEEDED a new table and table cloths!
ReplyDeleteYou're right, and I AM happy :)
ReplyDeleteI think you're right Carla - and there is NOTHING we can do about THAT!! Right?
ReplyDeleteAhh, fresh air is good for the lungs and mood but hard on the wallet! Congrats on the weight loss and new clothes!!!
ReplyDeleteIt's been a month like that for me as well, and I know we are going to suffer next month when the mastercard statements arrive!!

My spending is a bit out of control too. I am just kinda going with it. If I fight it, it tends to get worse and I really get out of control :)
ReplyDeleteYes! I must be RICH too!! Is it the weather? Perhaps it is! Unfortunately for me, clothes shopping joy will be shortlived when I realize I have to go UP in size. Ugh.
ReplyDeleteI should rub you for good luck. You game?
ReplyDeletem.
mine's been out of control - just planted my 'garden' - the last few thigns sorta got stuck halfway in the ground with a semi-prayer and a drink of water! yep I keep telling myself to study up or take a class or get someone with experience to coach me through this ordeal but I never do then it's spring again! supposed to be a really hot summer again and last year the stuff didn't make it -g ot too hot.
ReplyDeletehey if you'd gain about 100 lbs you wouldnt' be clothes shopping..nothing would look good! ;-)
It's the season.for me spring is worse than Christmas. LIke susanna I need to get at least some things planted. I tell myself I dont need any clothing until I lose more weight thats my only saving grade. Although I went to the quilt store yesterday just for some fabric for a border and they had all these bright, springy fabrics there...
ReplyDeleteYou have got a big case of the Spring Fever dahling!
ReplyDeleteNow put the dress/jacket/pants/skirt down and back away from the clearance racks....slowly......now breath deeply.....get into your car/onto your bike and drive away....and crack open a big bottle of wine at home and RELAX......
You can thank me later. ;-)
I think you just saved my life sluggy! Divert myself with wine? BRILLIANT!!
ReplyDeleteI suppose that would be one way to solve the problem but what would I wear??
ReplyDeleteSure! Just don't rub me the wrong way tee hee!!
ReplyDeleteOh Sharon!! I know it's just a number but I HATE to go up a size - that's why I'm always battling my weight!!
ReplyDeleteOh no, you used a credit card too? Now I don't feel so bad about using mine lol! Misery loves company!
ReplyDeleteThanks Debby - I'm wearing a new sweater today and I feel great!!
ReplyDeleteWe have the same affliction. I wonder if it will pass like the flu.
