One good thing about being very busy is not having a chance to buy anything...
It also means you don't get a chance to post to a blog very much. Now that I've caught up a bit, I'm having a chance to post.
It's been a month and a half so far, and I haven't bought anything (according to the rules). Interestingly enough, it hasn't been that hard. Occasionally I have had to remind myself that I'm not buying anything, but, other than that, not too bad. I've actually had thoughts that I could keep this going for quite a while, maybe longer than a year. It is only a month and half, so, I don't want to speak too soon...
One thing I have noticed: it actually is just as much (or more) fun buying for someone else than for yourself. I know it's a trite saying, but I have really gotten just as much out of buying for other people as I have for buying for myself. I probably wouldn't have noticed this had I not intentionally stopped buying for myself...
