clothes

this week i managed to fall way behind in my laundry. so i ended up washing pretty much all the clothes everyone has. that's when i noticed something.... my closet is very bare. my kids and my husband all have lots of clothes, from pretty nice stores. name brand new stuff. and lots of it. but my closet??? mostly jcpenny clearance rack more than 3 years old stuff. i only have 2 pair of jeans that fit, and 2 pair of sweatpants. the only reason i have the second pair of jeans is a friend gave me a gift card. I'm not meaning to complain; my point is why is it that i can spend money on clothes for my kids, and husband but the moment i even think of buying something for myself that costs over $11.95 i feel all sorts of guilty and put it back?! i know mike would be happy if i bought myself more things but i just can't seem to do it, does anyone else have this problem?? Mike keeps telling me i should go on TLC "what not to wear" . maybe that's a hint that buying myself some new clothes might be a good idea.... but i just don't think its going to happen.

A big reason I don't really like shopping for myself is I keep telling myself, I need to lose weight before I can buy any nice things.
