I've decided that I will be on a spending freeze until Feb 15th. I'm barraged with all kinds of advertisements to buy things. I don't need them. I don't wear about 80% of the clothes in my closet. It makes no sense to buy more. I have a few articles of clothing that I seem to gravitate to. Some Levi's I really like and wear them often. I'm not working. No one knows if I wear the same clothes. I still need to buy groceries and Christmas gifts, but everything else is on hold. If I still decide I need it after Feb 15th, then I'll think about buying it.
This includes restaurants. I'm shocked at restaurant prices. I usually don't see the value.
Years ago I joked about condensing my possessions to four boxes. Even after a major downsizing I am still very far away from four boxes.
You should see my wardrobe. I have only 6 white shirts, and 6 white tank tops for gym. 6 black casual pants for daily wear, and 6 shorts and tanks as set for pyjamas. that's it.
ReplyDeleteOh just recently I bought a few compression base pants for gym use. These days my ass and legs got quite huge so I needed more flexibility to squat. Also, wearing compression pants is also my main motive to be an attention whore in the gym.
I was working up until recently, so needed button up shirts and dress pants for business casual. It is so easy to buy things when you're at the store, or from the numerous online ads I get. We have the most selection of everything in the US!!
DeleteWhy Feb 15?
ReplyDeleteI just picked an arbitrary date that I thought was reasonable.
