Changes are coming in my life. It's time to tighten the financial belt and stop the incessant spending that has taken over.
Ever since Independence Day (September 1, 2007) I have enjoyed my financial freedom along with the freedom to wear what I want, cook what I want, listen to music when I want...the list is endless.
Now, however, I find myself facing some big changes. I am selling the house and moving (still not sure where yet - first I have to sell the house!). I am downsizing.
I am also shedding 90% of all my old furniture. It is full of baggage I don't care to carry with me any longer.
Obviously I will need some new things when I land. And I will have some expenses in the moving.
And so? I have declared myself on a Strict Financial Diet. let's hope this is more successful than my other diets...
Step one of the diet?
No More New Shoes.
These, then, were my Farewell to Shoes...even though I didn't know it at the time...
Alas New Shoes, I knew you well....

Much cooler than anything I could ever come up with.
I've been on a shoe diet of late and I can feel your pain. Love those pumps though!
I've been on the my-husband-is-unemployed and I-will-have-two-kids-in-college-at-the-same-time-for-the-next-five-years diet. I feel ya'.
Those were good last shoes!
Good luck with your downsizing. I went through such a diet when I found out I was having twins and would have three kids in preschool. Ouch. haven't caught up yet and they're all teens. Fortunately for me, or unfortunately as the case may be, I have a lot of trouble finding shoes that I can wear - so impulse shoe purchases are not a high frequency occurrence.
