There are so many things I would love to buy that I have to keep myself in check. How do I do this? I don't buy a thing for myself-I try to limit my spending to what I definitely need(like shampoo & toothpaste) & things for others. Seriously. If I buy one thing(like that dress) it will set the wheels in motion and before I know it, I'll have a whole bunch of STUFF that I don't NEED. A couple weeks ago I had to clean out my closet and ended up getting rid of at least 6 pairs of shoes. Shoes & bags are my weaknesses. If you see me heading into Payless, come rescue me!
And that brings me to my first want:
A pair of bright red TOMS. I've been in love with these for years. Maybe I should take the dress back & get these? :)
I also think this is the coolest mug I've ever seen in my life(though I don't think I'll ever buy it *good gift hint hint* kidding!):
But, then there are things that I want/need. I have a Canon Rebel XS. And I really want/need to develop my photography skills. I like taking close up shots, thus I need a macro lens
Oh, and some sort of flash(http://usa.canon.com/cusa/consumer/products/cameras/speedlite_flash_lineup) because the one I currently have is not mine. My sweet friend is generously letting my borrow it. I love friends, don't you? :)
And then there's always that endless list of books for my Kindle, the passport for my dream trip to Italy...or really anywhere, and of course, the car I've been desiring. Yeah, I could come up with a really long list. What do I need? Nothing. Seriously, there is not one thing I can think of that I need right now. I have all of the necessities and then some...okay and then a LOT. God has truly blessed me with more than enough. I've got good friends, family that loves me, clothes for my back & food for my belly. When it comes down to that, honestly, what more could you really WANT?
