So I cleaned out my bathroom last night.....

And by cleaning, I don't mean scrubbing sinks and toilets, I mean I cleaned out my bathroom.  I got rid of every excessive bottle of skin lotion, hand sanitizer, bottles of hairspray, body scrubs and that are taking up space in my bathroom.  And while doing this, I suddenly realized the hundreds of dollars I have spent on this crap....and that's what it is...crap.  Hundreds of dollars on bottles of stuff that take up space that I can't really use in my scent free job.  How stupid is that?

Some of it WAS gifts...but for the most part, it was stuff I bought when impulse shopping.   Or because I was shopping with someone who liked it.  I look in this bag filled with 20+ full bottles of assorted sprays, lotions and perfumes and think.....what a waste this is: what we all chose to do with out spare time.  Fill our homes with stuff we don't need, and spend money on it that should be used elsewhere....

So here is what I spent I spent $25.00 on this weekend...a winter festival with my family.  We went snow tubing.  We fired Muskets.  We pet farm animals.  We ate maple syrup on a stick.  We interacted with members of our community.  Paul and I introduced each other to people the other has not met.  We created a memory for our daughter.  Or, I could have went to the mall and bought a scent trio.....hmmmm.......
