The Perfect Purse, a check up from the neck up.

My favorite purse finally died. Before I relinquished it to the trash I had to find a replacement. There is NOTHING I like better than a real reason to shop. I have an apparently genetic ability to shop for exercise, training, warm ups, because its Tuesday....very much like those people who climb the mountain because its there. I shop because its there.

At the mall I found the perfect purse. It was a good size with the right number of pockets. The design was nice and the color(s) were great. It had the right "feel" and the straps were comfortable. So why didn't I buy the purse?

Well, ya see the last purse I bought was at some super sale and I walked away with that bag for 12 bucks. Now, somewhere in the far reaches of my twisted brain was lurking the belief that I was only worth a purse that cost $12 and this purse was more than that (ahem, considerably). Have you ever heard such stinkin' thinkin' in your life? Not only that, without analyzing what was actually going on upstairs I found myself for the next 2 hours in 3 other stores looking for a suitable bag for 12 bucks.

So let's take a look at what is wrong with this picture! If I had just bought the purse I loved, I could have gone directly home and gotten on the phone to some of my contacts from the http://info.mycashcrave.com website and made back that money (and more) in a New York minute. Not to mention how bad I felt, defeated and cheap and poor, because I denied myself The Pefect Purse. Broke is a temporary condition remedied by work, poor is a lifestyle. Dammit...I AM NOT POOR!!!!!

This morning I went directly to the mall and bought The Perfect Purse. I deserve it, I am worth it, and the old one was worn out. Now I feel rich and victorious.

Day 1...take a small bite

Hiya
Having often bitten off more than I could chew, and being way too oral for my own good, I am starting out by nibbling at the edges of this whole"blog thingy" before I actually sink my teeth into it. Wish me luck!

Speaking of biting off more than you can chew, AdWords has me completely confued. My guy who rescues me from computer disasters, "Saint Herbert", has often commented that some people should not be alowed to buy computers. He means me!!!...well this Baby Boomer is biting back! I will use AdWords, dagnabbit!
