I know! Temptations are everywhere, my friend. "Resist the devil and he will flee from you." !!!

I had to turn down a Starbucks date this morning, and deleted all "SALE, SALE, SALE!" emails, unopened, from my inbox.

Does taking the stinky dog to PetSmart for a bath count as unnecessary??

oh, PetSmart seems necessary to me!

are braeburn apples necessary? i want one, but i am out :)) groceries tomorrow, just praying for some reason in that area...

boy, this is HARD!!!

Lord, please help all three of us to honor You, to see Your Glory in our abstinence, no matter how miniscule it is, and to hold fast to YOUR WORD which says we have the all things in You!!! Lord - replace these attachments with new stronger bonds to YOU and with a steadfastness so that it might not just be a "willpower" thing, but more of a submitting of ourselves.

We love you Lord!! Even though we are weak!!

I'm right there with ya. It must be this time year, get a little bored, start thinking I need to redecorate, buy a new outfit, etc. Call it a side effect of the winter blues?! I'm going to try Rani's chant...I will not go to eBay, I will not go to Target, I will not go to Gap...okay I hope that works.

God be with us all!

AMEN. I do think that, unless you're a resident of the Garden of Eden, that Braeburns are ok, even necessary. :-)

I really didn't realize how difficult this would be!
