Several of my friends of the heart here (as Margaret calls us) have left me lovely comments on the post below. I appreciate your comments, really I do, but I don't want you to think more of me than I truly am. I'm not going to deprive myself and my children of any fun for the next four years. I don't plan any true suffering (no hair undershirts or spiked chain belts). All I am doing is thinking about my purchases and asking myself if each is really necessary. The thought involved is usually the answer itself, and when I think about it, I can think good and hard about why I am making the sacrifice.

It's a wonderful way to live, though. Balanced applause for your resolve in this matter. I, too, am going to try and do this - I love this idea.
