This new found relief from thoughts is making my life much lighter. Take today for instance; DH and I managed to take advantage of the Christmas Sale and did some good shopping. I didn’t have a worry in the world!! Had it been any other time, I would have thought and thought about the pros and cons of spending so much of money. Not so this time. Now I realise that I have to let go of myself sometimes. If we have worked so hard to earn that money then surely it needs to be spent on things that give us happiness (or so called happiness!!) even though I perfectly know that happiness is quite temporary. I need to let myself go through the process instead of getting so high strung all the time.
I bought for myself two pair of boots, a dress and a top. Not to mention a whole load of eyes-shadows and lip glosses. Yes, I have started wearing make-up in a big way these days. DH bought for himself a pair of trousers and three jumpers. Coming to think of it, we didn’t splash all that much. And when we returned home we had one of those dress rehearsals and tried on our new purchases in all permutations with our old stuff. All in all a good day and a big sigh of relief for not feeling so guilty about it.
