I seriously have a bad case of the spoiled brat! I have been basicaly spoiled my whole life by everyone around me. My mom, grandma,my dad (especially that man has never spanked me or done anytype of physical punishment my WHOLE life!) If I wanted something I got it from one parent or the other. My mom and dad have been split up since I was 2 so I basically got 2 of everything which made my spolied bratness even worse. I wasent a bad kid or bratty in a behavior way just a I want what I want way...LOL. Well now to this day I still struggle with it! My poor husband bears the burden now!I just have a hard time with the fact that we dont always have the money for things I want.My dad and husband will even laugh at me together because my dad will tell myhusband "She doesnt need that"....then my husband will say " I tell her hey you raised her"..LOL. My husband will always get me what I want because thats the kind of man he is. I just feel like a brat I wish I dident feel the need to get all the stuff I "think" I need to have. I have to have MAC makeup, get my nails done, go to the hair salon every 2 months or so 80 bucks a pop if Im lucky these are just mainatanence fees! I am obsessed with household decor all that stuff I just feel the need that I have to have things that I really dont. Money that should be saved I always spend. I will se something I want knowing I should skip it and save the money , but I cant fight the urge.I am the same way with my kids I over buy toys, movies, just I simply overbuy. You should see our garage they have 2-3 bikes each, a ton of sports stuff, water table, wagon, lots of stuff. I just wish I was a better money manager and would lose the whole spoiled thing. My husband always tells me you are so spoiled and I know he is not saying that in a fun haha way he is serious and I feel bad that I put that pressure on him. For instance we are looking for a smaller vehicle. I now drive a Envoy XL. Its really big and its just me and my lil man most of the days and we dont have big bulky car seats anymore so I suggested we get an economy car. So my spoiled ass ended up at the LEXUS dealer. Lets just put it this way if the dealership would have came up with a slightly better percentage rate my hubby would have bought me the lexus. He instead told me lets wait till December when they are wanting to get the 09's out so its a better deal. Come on I LOVE that car, but its really expensive and my husband would never chose to get a car at that price he just is doing it because he knows I want it. I should be much more frugal and get a car that fits out family better and is cheaper. I am workin on it here so stay tuned...LOL. On the plus side I took my nails off atleast until Nov. the start of the holidays:) I am not doing my hair as often and just trying to stay home so I am not tempted. I am really trying I dont wanna stress my hubby out he is the best guy ever and he does not need extra stress. I stay home with my kids, go to college, we have nice stuff, he just bought our family a brand new beutiful house I need to realize some people would kill for my life so the need to keep buying stuff when it is not even neccesary! I am not terrible or anything I mean we are not talking I but lavish things by any means Im talking 20 picture at Kohls, 25 jeans, starbucks,ect. but it all adds up. Especially with Xmas comin I need to cut back that alone scares me!
