Results of No Spending September

This pic has nothing to do with anything...but Fitz is soooo cute!

No Spending September. It was good. I felt proud of myself and sadly rather impressed that I was able to go a whole month without buying any "me" stuff. It wasn't that hard. I just turned off the buy buy buy switch. I'd like to think that I've somewhat broken the cycle I'd gotten myself into of wanting to purchase any little thing my heart desired (which I'm glad about after this Conference weekend!). I had planned on buying some things to celebrate my successful completion but I didn't feel this overwhelming need to buy things like I did at times before. I did buy a few things today, but they are all things I've planned for and needed except the stationary... I just can't pass up nice stationary. It was a good reminder that I can actually get along just fine without new things. I highly recommend it, especially in September since October is the beginning of the holiday season (ish). It let's you step back and save a little moulah before it all comes crashing down! And it reminds you that stuff isn't all that important or necessary. It was a good, and I'm hoping to make this an annual thing.
