i am trying, i think, to fill my empty nest with material possessions.
never have been much of a shopper. that was a task for when it was absolutely necessary, but lately...
oh man. i've bought 6 bracelets, a ring, a bottle of karmala perfume and body lotion, matching pieces to my grandmother's china...all that from ebay. they were great deals, even with shipping charges.
and i've bought...3 blouses - 2 linen and 1 cotton - and an entire alfred dunner outfit with sparklies on the jacket. all that for 11 bucks. yard sale. and the alfred dunner outfit still had the tags on it.
tonight, i had planned to take jim and charles to dinner and a movie, but nobody wanted to go, including me. so we ended up at the movie rental store, where they were having - you guessed it - a fabulous sale on vhs's. 2/$6 from one rack, and $2 each on another. WELL - To Wong Foo (don't you just love wesley snipes and patrick swayze in that one?) and some others so i got 4 movies from the 2/6 rack, and some audio books and a couple of movies from the $2 rack. and can you believe..the sales lady GAVE me the items from the $2 rack!?
the deals have been great, no doubt about it, but...i believe i'm gonna have to hang up my ebay password for a while. this could become an addiction.

I am not a shopper at all either. I think you are the only other woman I know who isn't a shopper besides me!! You did get some good deals, can hardly even count that stuff as shopping! Martha :-)
I'm kind of like that. Don't buy anything for a long time and then all of a sudden just go hog wild buying. Haven't gotten into that ebay habit yet. Paula
