Go to the Gym or Go Shopping

Yes I know it is the start of a New Year.  However, it has been really difficult to try and not go shopping.  Even though after all the money spent during the holidays it should be the furthest thing from my mind.

January should be replenish your friend's empty pocket month.  Thoughts of having a sugar daddy has really "crossed" my mind.  I love the holidays.  It is the post holiday depleted funds syndrome I don't like. I'm too cheerful of  a giver.  My heart is still warm and I am surely glad it is not near my pockets or it would be iced cold.

The after holiday bargains look oh so appealing.  50% off here, 25% off there, buy one get two or three free.  My goodness if these retailers knew how they are pulling at my heart strings they would cut this madness out.

Okay let me get back focused.  Even though I'm wanting to go buy a rust suede dress with a jacket or cardigan to match to go with some shoes I received over the holidays.  Oh when I put them five inch heels on and a nice dress to boot I'm going to be the stuff.

It's amazing how other folks can get you stuff and do a better job than you ever would have yourself in selecting for yourself.  My daughters do it to me all the time.  We don't agree on the taste on nearly anything but when they buy me something to wear or give me something they no longer want to wear I get rave reviews.  Wait until I wear my shoes OMG that day it's going to be all about me.

Let me go to the gym to get my legs in shape for those shoes.  It is truly sad I got to reach for the vain stuff to get motivated to get back to the gym.  I just hope I don't bulk up.  I know sometimes when I look at the gym it feels like I bulk up.

No chance of me utilizing some of the remedies they propose for not bulking up.  I'm going to do all cardio and not even look at the weights.  Of course I will do the abdomen work out.

I always admire folks who are disciplined to get at it and keep at it.  I sure would rather be shopping.

Now if retailers had a monthly automatic draft process like the gym I would definitely be shopping.  Please but please I hope retailers never do that.  They would bankrupt all the wanna be shoppers in America.

An automatic draft for a new dress of your choice every month from a nice selection.  OMG!  I see it in the distant future.  Some retailer will catch on.
