I joined your group because you guys AMAZE me in your drive to be so self-controlled! Seriously, I am amazed. I own 1 pair of pants, 2 skirts and a few tops for the summer. If anything, my family gets on me for not owning enough clothing and they get tired of seeing me in the same old thing over and over and over... :) I like spending my money on books and shoes and handbags. So, hopefully I will be inspired by reading your blogs to give up spending money on those items. I'm not ready to do it yet! But, maybe after spending some time with you all, I will be able to do it!!
