    Default Saturday night, Felt like spending money...

    My husband is away working... I felt like spending a little $$$, after all, it IS Saturday night... so I did! I got online and made a $20 additional payment to my Home Depot credit card! I feel better

    Maybe next time, I'll pour a glass of wine, and THEN make the payment!

    ~What a cool idea! I browse Ebay when I get spending fever. That way I have 2 or 3 days to consider actually buying. I decide not to buy 99.9% of the time. Especially if I pick something very high priced, like designer hand bags or dresses.~

    By all means, have the wine next time. Maybe even it bit of cheese. Let you hair down and make it a real bash!
