Make Me Happy

Hello Everyone: Ah yes. Nothing like having two straight days of work-free bliss. I disengaged from work when I clocked out yesterday. I ran a quick errand,treated myself to a delicious espresso drink, went home and had some self care time. This morning I slept in. Pure bliss. One small confession: I needed to get some eyeshadow and I went to another store in the mall because the department store doesn't carry that brand. This extended my streak of not using my employee discount to six months. It isn't as if I don't have what to buy with my discount,it's just I keep forgetting to load my discount card. Also, some of the clothes are cheap looking and overpriced. I will admit that some of the brands are quite nice and appear well made. One brand reminds of an American designer's collection from the nineties. The truth is, even though I'm in a wardrobe replenishment mode, I'm trying to be more selctive about what I buy. I want a wardrobe where each piece has earned its place, not just have more and more stuff. Case in point, I recently bought some shoes, first time in who knows how long, and when I cleaned out my closet to try to make room for them, I came to the sudden realization that I needed far less than I had. Same goes for the clothes. There are some things I want to still add but I'm not in a rush. I'm not like my coworkers who immediately start spending their paycheck on stuff. The only image I'm interested in creating is the one that's right for me, meaning, happy with myself. That's a work in progress. Right now, the only thing that's important to me is getting some rest and relaxation.
