I have few words to describe my thoughts as I turn the last page of book 6 in the Harry Potter series.

Wow.

Dang.

I almost don’t want to read book 7…not like it can get much worse.  It will though, won’t it?  And who am I kidding?  I already have the book out, on the bed with my bookmarker in it.

Dang.  *shaking head*

Peace.

That I absolutely must have this bag:  Big Town Bag

Any ideas on how to convince DH that I must have it?  He will be a hard sell, that DH.  He doesn’t see the need for more than one bag.  He just doesn’t get it.  Here is a good example for you…

I bought my last Coach purse almost 10 years ago.  It only gets sporadic use, mostly because I need a larger bag (to schlep around diapers and toddler snacks), so I use a couple of different bags on a rotating basis.  I have been lamenting the fact that I would love a new Coach purse for quite a while now.  3 years in fact.

I even went so far as to make a deal with him.

Yes, I went there.  Well, not there, perv.

The deal is that I learn how to give him a haircut at home and for every haircut I give him, I get $10 towards the “New Coach Purse Fund”.  I have given him 3 haircuts, so I am up $30 so to speak.  At this rate, it will take me 2 years to get my new purse.  But that is okay, I knew it going into “the deal”.

Sometimes it is tough being married to someone so frugal.  Notice, I didn’t say “cheap”, there is a big difference between cheap and frugal.

Did I mention that he is planning on buying a new road bike (bicycle) that costs as much as the new-to-us minivan that we are purchasing next month?  I think that I might have some leverage there.

Peace.
