The picture-drawing part of buy-nothing month is over. Half my reason for doing this is to stop the cycle of "shopping thoughts" that have plagued me since wish-list season began last December. The culprit became clear on the first official day of the experiment.
I love Pinterest, it's a lot of fun, but it wasn't doing me any favors on my quest for a clear mind and a healthy bank account. Once I stepped out of that echo chamber of consumerism nearly all my envy fuel evaporated. There was nothing left to draw. So I quit.
This hasn't changed my plans for saving money, though. I'm still not going to buy anything for myself in February (maybe longer?). It is just not a big deal anymore.
