No, not really. Its not very Mother Earth of me but I have shipped the 2 older boys off to summer camp and my first instinct was to shop. I am not much of a shopper, I hate shopping with other people, unless it involves lengthy stopping for coffee and bun, which isn't my Thing right now (off coffee atm), but my expanding waistline has made me itch for a bit of retail therapy. Now. I have no money, I blew the budget in May on birthday presents and end of school presents - which were in excess, along with all the snacks and special class pot lucks that occurred, so I am still playing catchup - there is lots of ferreting about in the larder being creative with store cupboard staples! So, I asked hubby if I could take some money from the savings, which have been a bit lean due to tax bills etc. Anyhow he said yes, so I took myself off to a shopping maul and found myself in 3 different shops looking at maternity clothes. It was one of those purely joyous occasions when lovely, stretchy waisted outfits were found, including a jumper for under 4 dollar (of course I made a point of highlighting this bargain to husband when displaying my purchases - an absolute must for the occasional shopper). To be fair I rarely shop like this and, as far as maternity wear is concerned it will be worn to death and out of shape, it rarely lasts from one pregnancy to the next due to the excessive wearingness and out of shapeness it become.
So, anyway, now I am reclining wearing Stretchy Waisted item number 1 - a lovely floaty skirt. Its great. :-)
