I do believe, I have forgotten
how to retail shop. .
Now, set me free in a hardware store, garden centre, fabric store, or op shop I always 'find' something I love. But it was a different story when I went shopping on Saturday. I was given a voucher for Christmas, so
we were going to spend it. After two hours, with an hour off for lunch, I was
over it, and just wanted to go home. I had a great time hanging out and talking
with Susie and Tamika, and my little side kick Jarvis. But would have had the
same fun if we had have hung out in the backyard. Everything just seemed so trite,
so expensive, such bad quality.
I was also given vouchers for my birthday and came home with a set of new bath towels in September. But, because there was nothing I needed, it was hard to find something I wanted. I will definitely not waste the card, as it has twelve months to use it, but I think Saturday showed me, after not buying anything for the last two years, I have taught myself to only shop for things I need, rather than want

I came home with a 2014
diary, a box of pins for my cork board and a DVD for Jarvis.
But then, after we got home, I went
shopping again. This time, I came home with two pieces of wood, three new
packets of seeds, three seedlings, and a new garden hose head. More my kind of
shopping.
Seed Packets are so pretty
