My day of gluttony

So, I didn't really mean to do this, but as my year of buy nothing looms ever closer, I have been in a shopping panic. My brain started to worry over the stupidest things really. 

For example:
Do I have enough socks?
What about undies and toothpaste?
I should run to the store and buy everything I can before tomorrow!!
And more importantly .... 

What about my RahRah Gallery Americano ?! 

Thankfully, I was able to talk myself out of going shopping crazy in the big box stores, that the Yukon has way too many of .... 
But I did buy some socks, undies, and managed to plan a barter/job trade for my coffee. 

Tomorrow I will lay out the plan for the year :)

The idea

As I near my 35th year on this earth, I have decided to evaluate my connection to the junk that I have in my life. I feel the need to downsize the amount of stuff that is filling my house, and really take a look at my need to purchase items, and find out about the emotions that are tied to that.

I am starting a journey on November 28th 2013, to restrict my shopping, to the basic necessary items needed. Household items like laundry soap, toilet paper, groceries, pet food and pet chews.

I will not buy clothes, shoes, paper towel, or lastly, craft supplies :)
