So, a little update.
After finding out Ebuyer.com has taken out another £99 from my bank, I canceled the card, so it can’t happen again, and that’ll give me time to sort stuff out. So, before I cancled it, I withdrew £50 to see me through untill I get my new card.
I should have taken a lot more out. Ya see I’ve now got £6.50 left.
I spent most of it today, at Kingston Lacy’s Craft and Gardn fair. I bought lawn camamile and dill plants [£2.50]; a waterproof picnic rug [£4.50]; a lilac fuffy scarf, that I’m wishing I hadn’t bought now, not that it’s not lovely it’s just.. I don’t know, I could have bought something better maybe [£12]; a wind chime made from cutlery and is very pretty [pictures to be taken later] [£20].
It’s odd, having money. I grew up being so frugal, saving everything in sight [because I was brought up to save for tomorrow]. I went to Uni and budgeted myself to death [nearly]. I was unemployed for godsknowshowlong and every time a birthday came along, I would really feel the pinch and wish that I could get better gifts. And now I’ve money and it’s hard not to be frugal and it’s hard not to feel guilty after a spending splurge. It’s hard to remember the idioms: ‘You only live once, so enjoy yourself’ and ‘you can’t take it with you’. I feel old before my time. Do other 20 yr olds suffer this same crisis of consience whenever they reach for their wallet?
*sigh* And I just know the kitty kat is going to have been subcounciously analysing everything I just said…
