Can money buy happiness?

You know, generally, I would say “no way,” but this week I just might disagree with that general assessment.

I used my birthday “crazy money” to buy myself some new clothes from my favorite catalog: Title Nine.  I haven’t gotten myself several new, full-price items in a loong time (actually, Bryan’s mom got me some great winter clothes last fall, so that’s not entirely true, but anyway…).  So for the last few days, I’ve been rejoycing in wearing new shirts, a new skirt, a new dress, new pants…ahhh.

Also, and this is probably too much information for any male readers out there, but I got myself some new bras on my birthday.  They are my first new ones since I bought nursing bras when I was pregnant with Andrew in 2004.  They make me so happy!  For all you mamas out there who haven’t gotten yourself new undergarments, I highly recommend it.  Get professionally fitted.  It makes a girl feel good.

Eventually I may not be dancing around in happiness every morning over my new clothes, but for the last week, my spirit feels light because I feel pretty.  What a perfect kind of birthday present!

  1. Hmmm, I started receiving their catalogs a while back, but I haven't bought anything yet. Nice name for a clothing store, though 🙂 Glad you've had a good time shopping and enjoying new birthday clothes!
