My Strange Addiction

Pico and ME · 08-18-2011, 11:45 AM

I was addicted to candle shopping once upon a time. I stopped when I realized that I just wasn't burning them. They finally did come in handy one winter when we had a power outage during a really nasty cold snap. I lit every single one of them in the living room and dining room, and those suckers actually kept the heat around 55 degrees!

I also had a Hobby Lobby addiction too. I could not get out of that store for under $100. It was those damn 50% off sales on decorative glass and ceramic stuffs.

My current addiction is 75 % clearance sales at department stores. I have kind of slowed down now though because our clothes closets just wont fit anymore in them.

Luckily I owe too much and with the need to pay for my mom's implants and crowns, I do not readily spend these days. The other day, I saw a tote in just the perfect size that I've been longing for all these years, wanted it so badly, but I left the store without buying it. I may long for it later but I won't die without it.

Still a little sad but I know I shouldn't get it. Anyways, I like Yankee Candle too. They can really freshen up a room, unlike other scented candles.

all you have to do is ask. you are a treasured friend and it would be an honor to buy it for you.

Hehe....It's the thought that counts, and I greatly appreciate your thought.
