Hello from the Poor Girl

A big hello to all my readers! I hope to be both enlightening and entertaining - a tall order as I am neither in my day to day life.

The Trouble with Shopping

I just spent two hours at a store looking for new school clothes. Anything I buy has to meet three criteria:  must be comfy, must be light, and must be cheap. As is, very, very cheap. So cheap even I can afford it. So, I find a few things here and there on various clearance racks. Try it all on. The problem was, of course, that I liked everything, but that would have meant spending more money than I wanted to. I like trying on clothes and then discovering that they look wretched on me simply so that I won't have to buy it, but I can say that at least I looked.

Then, I had to pick and choose. The capris or the leggings? The summer dress or the long purple skirt? I managed to find faults with each and every garment before returning them to the racks. However, on the way out, I caught sight of an adorable pink dog that I just had to buy.

So it's amazing how I go in for clothes and come out with a stuffed pooch.
