Wants and Needs.

When I was in the 3rd grade and we were learning about "Home Economics,"
we learned a great deal about the difference between "Wants and Needs."

Well, apparently I really took to that information because for the rest of year
when someone in my family (like my sister) would say
that they were going to buy something from the store (take lipstick for example)
I would proudly and seriously say "That is a WANT not a NEED, Sissy!"

Since then I've sort of blurred the line between wants and needs.
Today I compiled a little list of things that I "need" to buy,
and while some people could argue this is more of a want list, I have decided that it is, indeed,
a NEED list because they are things that I think about so often.

1) Coffeemaker (so I can stop spending my money on Starbucks)

2) Running Shoes (my old ones are really worn and also currently really hurting my toe after I workout)

3) Laura Mercier Illuminating Tinted Moisturizer (I love wearing tinted moisturizer in the summer because I hate wearing heavy makeup in the heat, plus this stuff should make your skin ga-low, according to reviewers)

4) Bathing Suit ( My current bathing suit that I have both pieces to has these really obnoxious tie things that stress me out. I'd like a lil' simplicity please. Also, I'd preferably like one that would make me look like Alessandra. Awesome.)

5) Teeth Whitening Strips ( Just cause)


So. Ya know, all in all, I'd say that's not an over the top list.
Hopefully I'll get some of these items checked off as the next couple of weeks go on.



Anything on your "wants and needs" list?





'Til next time...
