Watch it...your uncontrollable consumerism has been uncloseted.
I'm no tree-hugging hippie. I enjoy purchasing items that make my life better or just more e joyable with impulse buys.
Either way, I don't spend a lot of time on my buys. I use Consumer Reports for important buys and don't fall prey to the ads attacking me online.
I was born as a third generation Manhattanite. I was never "schooled" in how to walk the streets. I simply watched my parents...father put wallet in a front pants pocket, momsy placed handbag over her shoulder and held in front of her.
Same lesson can be passed on to your children by your behavior.
Point...consumers are prey to their own desires as well as to the marketing communications of scrupulous and unscrupulous peddlers.
Suggestion...step away from the marketplace for a month. Buy only bare necessities to see if your consumer aura has lost its luster.
Beautiful post. I can see grandparenthood making its way down the table, and thought I'm content to wait, I think it will be the best dish yet.
