I did squat all today. Mostly laid out in front of the balcony door reading while trying to catch a cool breeze that was coming in because our condo is still hot from the past few days.

And the air conditioning is still not on.

I was laying on my new body pillow that I bought myself from Amazon yesterday which was waiting outside my door today when I woke.

An exciting morning.

A Mother’s Day present to myself, and now I can finally get rid of my old body pillow with a hole in it and leaking feathers all over the house for the last few months.

There are feathers everywhere.

I’m a side sleeper and need the support of a body pillow. Without it, I wake up sore with an aching back, which is the reason why I didn’t throw out the damaged one until I found the right new one.

As for purchases this week, I have been wanting and searching for a short sleeve sweatshirt.

My goal has been to find a really cool one secondhand, but they are really pricey for some reason, with stupid high shipping.

Realistically I don’t want to pay $70 for a short sleeve sweatshirt and then add another $35 to ship it, so I found this on Zara which will do.

Which you can also see in the last look above.

My current plan is to find a long sleeve version that I like at Value Village and then cut the sleeves off.

I also bought a linen shirt, but I didn’t like the way it looked on, so it goes back this week which is the story of my life.

95% of the things that I buy end up going back.

Very rarely do I find something that I love to the point that I know I will wear it for years.

This is why everything goes back, so I can keep the money for when I do find that piece that I have an instant connection with, and not have a closet full of pieces that I feel lukewarm about.

Which is a weird way to explain it, but you know that instant gut punch and gasp of excitement when you find the right piece?

I try to strive for that with most of my purchases. That way I know that it will be something I truly love, not an impulse purchase.

I’ve done really well over the last 10 years cutting out the impulse purchases but every once in a while one sneaks through.

Always a work in progress.
