Confession of a Shopaholic!

YES!
I am admitting that I am the above. Recently a very good friend of mine has ushered me to participate in Lent. Although, I am not catholic. I do believe in the art of FASTING! I do believe that we all should fast from something, cell phones, computers, television, coffee and shopping.

Well here is the meaning of Lent.
Lent is a forty-day period of time that proceeds the Catholic holiday commonly called Easter. During this time, observers tend to give up something they like (such as a food, like meat or certain meals or a form of secular entertainment, like television) essentially as a form of "fasting" for the purposes of getting closer to God or for penance.


So, the author of this blog started late. Now here it is! I started last Sunday. There I was standing in line with 2 great fitting shirts, a cashmere turtleneck(blue). I don't have one; and it was only $20. The prices were great. Wait, I forgot to mention the beige and white polka dot scarf and this funky black and neon green jacket. To match these sneakers.

Then the voice of reason via a friend sounded off and said, " WHAT HAPPEN TO LENT!??!?!?"
Now I am sitting here 10 days later, wondering why I am sitting in this state of withdrawal.
So, there it is.
Feedback is more than welcome. WHEW! Its getting hot.
