I have not been doing that this year, but I have done that in the past, and never felt 1 ounce of guilt! Chat Icon

Not really. I mean if I need something like sneakers, clothes or shoes I don't feel guilty. I was like this for a while, not buying myself anything and I realized how badly it made me feel about myself so I started buying nice clothes, shoes and make up again. Just because I'm a parent doesn't mean I have to give up myself completely.

i do the same thing--i think "thats money i could be spending on someone else!"

its hard -- cause i love giving gifts and seeing how happy it makes ppl. but when you need it--you gotta get it for yourself!

Nope. I work very hard and feel that I deserve to buy myself whatever it is I feel I need. Luckily, my DH agreesChat Icon
