Man tager vad man haver.
I am vowing from now until the end of the year to not buy "new" clothes besides shoes/socks/underwear. If I REALLY need a new shirt/skirt/dress/pair of pants, I've gotta go thrifting or make it.
Tiffannie suggested that as I buy clothes I should donate an item to charity for every item bought. I think I'll try to double that and donate two. Yes, I'm that generous, er, my closet is that full.
I'll update as necessary.

Testing 1, 2, 3 ...
Is this thing on?
I am quickly discovering that blogging is a difficult thing to start. I consider myself to be a darn good story teller, so... I should stick to what I'm good. Right? Right!
To Do
My to do list to keep this blog alive
- Locate digital camera
- Find cord to connect camera to computer
- Take pictures of things to talk about/share
- Blog on a regular schedule (Monday, Wednesday, Friday??)
- Drive friends/family to blog through FB after I get a few posts up
- Remind friends/family to read blog
- Encourage friends/family to respond to blogs
- Shorten 'friends/family' to just 'friends' because I do, after all, get along with my family (but also, many of my friends I consider to be family... maybe I will keep friends/family with friends = family, and family = friends. Because THAT'S not confusing!)
- Encourage friends/family to also blog
