Just say no.

The temptation to shop hasn't gone away yet. Just today I caught myself "window shopping" online for boots. What a waste of time! I know I don't need them. I committed to saving money, so I shouldn't even be considering the expediture. And yet I spent a fair number of minutes perusing different sites, weighing the pros and cons. Ugh. Bad habits are hard to break.

However, I can honestly say that I've done well over the past three weeks. My only nonessential expenditure was for two teaching related books. I figure that it's a long term investment in my sanity. Thirty bucks didn't seem unreasonable although to be honest, I didn't even really think about it. I just hit "purchase."
