Today was the first
real time I was just ready to be done with this project!
AGHHHHHHHH!!!!!
Today I bought my first shirt that was new.
It is a lovely
shirt.
It
is functional.
It matches every one of my outfits.
It
is comfortable.
It is a boring.
It is a white
t-shirt that I need for a Highland dance show.
What made me want to quit is that….
It was on a 30%
off clearance rack,
Hanging
next to its neighbor,
A
beautiful violet dress
That
would be perfect to wear to work
That
would be great to Preach in
That
calls my name, saying “Katie… I was made for you!”
This
violet dress is 50% off and a great price.
It hugs
a beautiful teal blouse.
This
blouse is washable
It
matches all my suits.
It
is 75% off and less then $10!
Why – when all the stores are getting rid of their summer
clothes,
Clothes
that I needed all summer,
Clothes
that would have made my life easier,
Clothes
that finally I can afford
Why am I following this silly rationing – of one new shirt,
one new pair of pants, one new dress.
I waited all year to buy my new shirt.
I didn’t
want to waste my one purchase,
I
wanted to make my purchase count
I
scoured racks of clothes at the thrift store so I could buy a shirt when I
really needed it…
And now I have my new shirt
My, no
one has worn it but me, shirt
Hurry
my new shirt
My
white tee shirt
I
am tired of being rational.
