I showed great restraint yesterday shopping with Vickie at Macy's.
I've been wanting a shiny, red pair of flats....just because. No real need for them, but red shoes just sound like fun, right?
Well, I FOUND them! Not only that, they were on SALE! A GOOD sale!
Then I remembered how often I ask Isaac to refrain from spending....how could I justify even spending $20 on something that is far from a need? I just couldn't do it.
Now today, I've been knee-deep in purging all of our stuff and finding new ways to organize. I have to admit, I really enjoy doing this type of thing....but I've also realized how much stuff/junk we really have....and need to give away or throw out.
So instead, for Christmas, all I'll be asking for this year are gift cards to Lowe's so we can make best use of our space....all to appreciate the stuff we already have.
But I still would really like those pair of shoes. Maybe by this Friday, the price will be slashed even more!
One can only hope. =)

I looked for those shoes online for my size and couldn't find anywhere close to $20. I hope they are cheap, cheap, cheap on Friday!!
I love the description of the shoes... "an undeniably eye-catching flat" - obviously it caught your eye! :o) I hope that $20 mysteriously falls from heaven so that you can be blessed with those shoes. God knows the desires of our hearts (even if it seems silly to others).
