My confessions....


So I finished reading book 3/25 for this year!! And that is from the Confessions of Shopaholic series "Mini Shopaholic." I actually had a really tough time getting into this book even though I loved the previous ones. Well I was finally able to finish it and I realized something about myself: I am quite addicted to shopping as well. Becky, the character in this book, learns from an expert that she has an addiction to shopping and it is causing disturbing behavior in her daughter. Becky comes up with these elaborate plans to pay for things so that her husband won't know about it.....yeah well I tend to do this as well. I'm going to pray that Rene doesn't see this, but I always have a way of letting purchases slip below his radar. So as I'm reading this I start laughing at loud, because this is so going to be me. Becky enjoys life and will stop at nothing to get what she wants. I am kind of the same way, I love my life so much and I want to do and see everything and if that means I have to get a cheap old house, and a used car when that time comes, I will take it with a smile. I would rather travel around the world and have lots of kids and be absolutely happy than spend my money on expensive houses and cars. So now that I have finished this book, I'm quite excited about the next one! Until tomorrow...

  1. I'm with you! I'd rather travel too! Do it now while you have more freedom. You can travel with kids but it's more expensive. :) Oh, and I have an addiction to shopping too. I just have less money to spend now. Once again, the kid. But I wouldn't trade her for anything.

  2. Yeah! I grew up traveling with my parents all over the country and twice over seas, while my husband has only been out of Texas twice, once to DC and then our honeymoon, so hopefully I will be fortunate enough to have the money to take my kids anywhere they and I want to go!
