I am known to be pretty frugal, but lately I have really relaxed in this area and have made a lot more purchases that weren't really necessary.I need to be more disciplined again. Let us know how you're doing with this; it could help all of us!!!Mary Annhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03129793790973176351noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6212550248931823866.post-11922035950660651722006-11-29T22:44:00.000-05:002006-11-29T22:44:00.000-05:00Thank you for all the encouragement, ladies!

Giving yourself two weeks allows yourself to see how truly needed or wanted an item is while also giving you more time to allocate funds for it. I know, like most of my women friends and family members, those tempting spur-of-the-moment purchases (now matter how inexpensive they may be) can quickly add up. This rule has helped me through the years. I, too, am a stay-at-home mom (of six to be exact) and frugality is probably one of the traits my husband appreciates most. I also wanted to tell you I really enjoy your postings! I love the pictures as well! I have just begun my own blog: Finding Joying in Life's Little Blessings. Come visit and let me know what you think if you get the chance. I hope I've helped. You're in my prayers.Darlenehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06976773314675636042noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6212550248931823866.post-24728641628668492372006-11-27T14:48:00.000-05:002006-11-27T14:48:00.000-05:00Great post, as usual.
