Wants VS Needs

February 17th, 2008 at 04:25 pm

When I woke up this morning, I just wanted to spend money. I want to buy a chest freezer for my kitchen. I want to get new socks for me and my youngest son. I want to spend, spend, spend.

WHY?

I want to buy a pretty bucket to put cigarette butts in outside.
I want new rugs in the bathroom.
I just want it all.

WHY?

I don't need any of these things, as I have socks, they just need washed, I have three bath rugs, and my freezer can wait another month or so.
Do I need a "pretty" bucket if it will just sit outside, getting rained on? NO, it is for nasty cig butts.
I am not going anywhere today, to control my hand in the money pocket.
Yeah for me. I can control myself!

    Boy, can I relate! I have times like that too but manage to control them. For the most part. It's tough! I don't know the answer to 'WHY?' though!

    me, too - I had an urge to spend on Friday and bought discounted V-Day decorations for next year and a few gifties for DH - nothing that cost more than $25 in total. DS did NEED a pair of blue pants for school - he has one pair with a hole in the knee. I didn't HAVE to walk to past the home decor. I've come to the conclusion that I need at least $15 a month to blow on whatever. You at least didn't buy. Good for you!
