No Buyers Remorse= Buyers Love

Okay, so I'm still not over the high from yesterday's thrift store bargains. Maybe it had something to do with the small fortune I almost spent many times last week on clothes for F + L.
As embarrassing (but, oh so comfortable) as it is, this is my standard public apparel these days: flip-flops and some hand-me-down gauchos that have gotten at least two of the Fox sisters and maybe an in-law through yet another pregnancy.
When I saw these pants where the knees were worn a little, I thought, that is just what boys' sweatpants are supposed to be like, especially size 4T. But, with the pricetag, you don't even have to worry about patching the knees when they get holey: just throw them away and get another pair! (BTW: those are the shoes that replace the much-missed Lightning McQueen ones. They're "fighter jets" and not airplanes, according to Finn. And, he corrects anyone that tells him otherwise.)
Also standard public get-up: no make-up. I feel like I'm Amish or maybe just albino when I go out like this. Hey, it goes with the simplicity of the country scenery, right?

SO many outlets, SO little time.
Today mine is painting my nails, interruption free!
shopping. retail therapy all the way. and eating apple pie caramel apples from rocky mountain chocolate factory. mmm. by the way, thanks so much for the recipes!!
Haha... for 4 months my outlet is fantasy football... and college football. I have started to enjoy shopping a little more... I enjoy getting boxes of hand-me-downs from my sis even more than shopping though.
My outlet is eating. More specifically, eating icecream. It used to be running. I really need to make that my outlet again.
I still can't believe how much you get done in a day, especially with two kids and one on the way. You're amazing.
Riding my bike. when I grab the handle grips and turn those pedals, I'm 10 years old again, pretending my bike is a car and I'm driving around town running errands.
haha i am cracking up about finn's mcqueen shoes. i bear witness of the stink. i recollect the ride from pasco to boise in the blue suburban and we could smell something coming from somewhere and sure enough, finn's shoes had been removed. oh man, good times.
I hope Travis fully appreciates how thrifty you are!! You're amazing. And you're such an entertaining writer, when are you going to write that book?
I really love thrift store bargains, I almost bought all of my kids winter clothes this year at yard sales! i think I'm a little to obsessed.
