Summer Shopping Spree

I know that since I am a woman, I am supposed to absolutely love shopping. But the truth is, I hate it! I have such a hard time spending my money and I hate trying to make a decision on buying something that I really don't care much about. But there always seems to come a time when I find myself needing to break down and pull out the good ol' credit card.

This was one of those months and it sure came with a vengeance. By the first week in August, I had already put over half of my limit on my card. I was so freaked out by it, I had to pay it off, just so I felt like I hadn't really spent that much money. By the end of the month, I was just as panicked.

Here are few examples of things I bought this month.

• Clothes, Shoes, Rollerblades.
• A new dress for the wedding.
• Work done on my car.
• A flight from Scotland to Ireland.
• A flight fee due to extending my trip so I could go to Ireland.
• The Office Seasons 1-3.
• A program to convert DVDs to an iPod.
• An iPod to TV converter.
• Food, Entertainment, etc.

I just hope I've had my shopping spree for the year! Now I need to get back to work so that I can make up for this very expensive month.... not to mention I only have a month left to save up for my trip!
