Okay, It’s been a week since I last checked in and I must admit that last week was tough. I accomplished something that was really great and I so badly wanted to buy myself a new outfit. I survived. I didn’t make my celebratory appearance at White House/Black Market; instead I found another way to celebrate. I just shared my accomplishment with family and friends and that seem to have done the trick. I know, I know, I could have bought a new accessory because that’s allowed but I didn’t because I definitely can over indulge in jewelry, shoes and belts. Trust me I own my share of anything and everything that can make an outfit “pop”. Oh by the way, did I tell you that jewelry and sandals is another problem for me??? Probably not! Well let me tell you I used to sell silver jewelry and I started collecting and selling vintage jewelry but that quickly came to an end. Thank God! How much jewelry do I need? In my mind I can never have enough. However, in my husband’s mind, I definitely have enough.
Not a whole lot going on but I just wanted to let you ladies and gentlemen know that this newbie is hanging in there!

YAY… glad to hear you’re going strong! Keep rockin’ those accessories and you should be in great shape through the long haul!
Hi Cathy!
Thank you for the encouragement. I read your profile and I want to tell you that my mother-in-law is from Fairfield and my father-in-law went to Fairfield University. Its been a long time since they lived in Fairfield but I have visited the area with my husband and I must say that I loved it.
Laverne, the first few weeks are hard but eventually you will overcome the pull of the stores. I definately go through my ups and downs with this but overall I am really surprised about how, eventurally, the need to shop disapates. Also, you’ll have a lot more free time to think about and do other things.
