Two Steps Back

I didn't post yesterday. Perhaps because I was embarassed. One reason I started this blog was to hold myself accountable. I truely want to make this a permanent change in my life, but so far I'm finding it much harder than I thought. I'll post on WHY I've decided to "Renounce Retail" soon.

My in-laws are taking us to Disney World at the end of this month to celebrate my twin's 5th birthday. Ironic to choose this time to renounce retail when we are going to be vacationing in perhaps the most retail mecca of all. But if you're gonna go. Well. You gotta go. In style. I had planned to buy the tots some costumes of their favorite characters. And I did. And they weren't used. Well one was. So last night I blew some cash on some costumes. I don't feel too guilty but I didn't feel great either. But it's done.

I realize now that had I planned better I could have made sure everything was used, and paid less. Two things that would have made me happier.
