I am grateful for a new year, with a fresh start! The year 2011 brought a lot of experiences in my life that has made me change the way I look at life, and I have truly grown from my challenges and spiritual experiences that I have had. I'm grateful for all of my trials and happy moments! I want to be able to think of ways to be happy EVERY SINGLE DAY! Life is too short to spend it being sad or down. I'm no blogger, so I hope that my desire to do this everyday will continue. I know that if we stay positive, and look up in life, anything negative will become a positive experience! With that said..........Let's Smile!

SMILE #362 Impulse Buying

Okay, this is not a complete smile on the bank account!  BUT!  I am smiling today, because I was out shopping with my sister in-law's, and we were at ROSS, and I totally was not planning on buying anything!  In fact I was there for my sister in-law to help her buy a diaper bag!  Well......I bought a diaper bag, and few clothing items (for baby), and a whole bedroom set!!!!!  I cannot believe I did it, but we just got a full size bed from a friend, that we'll be putting in with the baby's room, and so It all started with needing sheets for that bed.  Then I found the cutest quilt to go with it!  THEN, I found the best decorative pillows that would look great, so I grabbed 3 of those, T....H.....E....N!!!  I found the coolest leather chest that would look great to go at the end of the bed, and it's great for storage too!  That was a pricey item, and not something I normally do, but knowing I had some of my own extra spending money, I splurged and bought it!  

Why do I smile after doing all of that?  Well, it's going to be super cute, but it also helped me figure out the color's I want to make for my baby's crib bedding!  It's going to turn out great, and the room, will be quite the nice too, and matching!  I have no regrets!  :)

Have you had an impulse buy, that made you smile?
