Oh, and the shopping!!!!!!! Well, I wish I had someone to make me take it all back later. I shop when I'm manic and I shop when I'm depressed. If depressed, I use that as an excuse to spend the money because at least I feel better momentarily.
I also use this excuse...I say, "I know it's only January, but if I buy this Christmas present for so-in-so now it will be better because I know it's something they will like and that way I won't be rushing at Christmas time and fearing that they will hate it."
:-) I have a room full of future Christmas, birthday and "just because" gifts. I think I could stop shopping now and have enought gifts for everyone for all occasions for the next 2 or 3 years.
HEY, at least I'm not selfish!!! I not only buy for myself, I buy for everyone else too!!! hehehehe
hmmmmm...I wonder if this could be why I can't seem to pay my bills and why my gas was cut off 6 months ago and I haven't been able to get it turned back on? I guess that could be why. Ya think?
