OT: Should I treat myself

  Hi you guys,

I think I had quite a rough year- not too bad, yet not the easiest. I have had my surgery (and experienced the worst hospital treatment of all times), I have had a car accident that was followed by many, many physiotherapy sessions. I had a lot of trouble at work (my manager's manager telling me I was immature, frustrated and angry simply because I did not apply for a role they apparently created for me), I lost GBP 500 to a private doctor, who could not even help me with my diverticulitis.
So, I was thinking, it may be time for a treat! I would like to buy myself something really nice. Is it something completely unnecessary? Yes, it is! Is it something that I can financially afford? Well, not necessarily, but I would recover after a few month. Check it out:

What do you ladies think? Shall I do it?

Put the crappy last year behind you and do things that make you happy.

If you don't want it you can always buy it for me. I think it is beautiful. 

I was feeling a little guilty because I just bought my 3rd pair of boots this morning.  (3 pairs in the last month)     Life is too short  I say.  Go for it.  It is only money LOL
 Remember, if you want to be a 155 pound person, you have to EAT like one.

 Treat yourself - yes. But not with something which will have to be resized several times over the next year!

Do it! Sometimes we need to be impractical and do things for us! :-) The only suggestion I can make is compare prices. Sometimes you can get the same, or similar items cheaper. It always pays to comparison shop. Also I don't know if they have something similar in the UK, but in the USA  we have a major shopping day called Black Friday. It's the Fri. after Thanksgiving and most of the stores have some items at great prices that day................and then the following Monday is Cyber Monday. Same thing, but online discounts.
