The Woman in Me Wanted Boots

Several days ago, I listed all the things I wanted to do when I'm debt free. Rounding out that list was that I wanted to buy myself flowers. I received quite a few comments telling me that I shouldn't wait -- I should buy myself flowers now.

Well, I haven't bought them yet. What the woman in me wanted instead was a pair of black boots. Yeah, yeah, they were much more expensive than flowers would be, but if you've been reading this humble blog of mine for any length of time, you know how long I've been searching for perfect black boots -- heeled, riding, and cowboy. (And if you haven't, do a search for "boots" and see what comes up. It's ridiculous how many entries there are.)

I finally found heeled boots. Maybe I shouldn't be counting my chickens before they hatch. After all, they've only been preordered and aren't due to arrive until about the second week of August. They might not even fit. Still, I have high hopes. With these boots, wearing the rest of my old crap this fall and winter won't be so bad.

And I'll still buy the flowers. :-)

Wow, congratulations :) If you don´t waste money like a spendaholic but allow yourself rare splurging like that, it´ll be fine :)
