What have you bought?

[Guest]

Fan had a great idea in another post...what can you spend your alcohol money on...make a list and stick to it when you feel the desire to buy the bottle of whatever...PLUS, alot of this stuff will need my newly found extra time.

Here's my list:
TV hanger thingy for my daughters wall
New bathroom fixtures (just remodeled, still need the little things though)
re-paint my diningroom
re-paint my doors and shutters of my house...tired of hunter green
put in a koi pond

Great thread LUA, hmmm, things I will buy instead of alcohol... Ok then to start small, for everyday AF i will buy myself a magazine or a fancy pair of tights, or something delicious for my tea/supper/dinner (depending on where you live - evening meal). For one week AF I will buy myself.... oh the list could go on and on here... a new hairstyle, get my nails 'done', a deep tissue massage, ........... Come on, we can do better than this effort !!!

I have a major addiction to nice linens, and I just saw in Versailles today a beautiful set by Yves Delorey, so I bought them... this will cover my 30 day dry spell.

I kind of think I would like to treat myself to something small for everyday i'm AF. I need to think about this one, its a very good idea. I think it will boost self-esteem. when I did 34 days AF, i looked at myself more in the mirror, searching for changes! I made more of an effort with my makup and clothes. that in itself is a nice 'me' feeling.. When i blew it big time, i could not stand to even look at my eyes in the mirror...But now....I'm feeling good. I like this post LUVUALL. Thanks. Bella xx

Yes, Determinator!
I need a new lemon squeezer! The enamel is chipping off mine -- I use it a bunch. That is the gadget I will buy when I reach 100 days Yeah, it seems small for 100 days, but I don't need much else now that I have brand new running shoes! I do seem to have plenty of time for shopping now that I'm not wasting time hungover - yay.

What have you bought?

I bought some new makeup online today- and nothing for bags or circles under my eyes
because they don't seem to be there anymore!!!

I also got a real cute new haircut last week and spent twice as much as I usually do.

Get this... Mr Doo is quitting smoking today. He still drinks but is one of the lucky people who can take it or leave it. I digress.... I gave up the fags 2 weeks ago, saving us $300 a month. He's giving up which will save us another $300 a month. With my non-alcohol buying, at say $10 a bottle of red, consuming a minimum of 7 bottles a week (that's minimum 50 standard drinks a week! Bad-Bad-Bad) that's another $300 a month.

We will now have $900 a month extra!

We're putting a spa in our garden and re landscaping the garden (Balinese inspired design for great meditations) so we'll be putting that money towards that. WoooHoo!
