Top Ten Reasons That I Am Not Rich

1. I Married For Love...

And so we argue about money... I suppose I could have married for money, then argued because I didn't love him.

2. I Have Children

Those little critters were cute and didn't smell that bad, so I went ahead and carried them home with me from the hospital. I didn't realize that it would cost a fortune filling them up with whatever they needed, then cost even more for the things I needed to clean up what came spewing out of both ends...

3. W-A-L-M-A-R-T

I swear, I can run in for a jug of milk and some TP and magically be $100.00 poorer , when I exit the building.

4. Craft Supplies

If I lived to be 200, I still would never use all the craft supplies that I have purchased, planning to use when "I get the time.".

5. Animals

I am a sucker for an abandoned animal or sob story. People know this and come to me with the ol' "If you don't take him, he's going to be put to sleep" story. Dog and cat food is not cheap. Not to mention all that other stuff they have to have.

6. Stockpiling

If there is a great sale on something we use everyday, I can't buy just a couple. In the long term, this saves us loads of money. In the short term, it's why I have no change in my pockets.

7. Paranoia of Food Poisoning

I really like to use leftovers, but if the slightest thing seems weird about them, I will toss them. If I even let a question enter my head, as to their edibility, I have to throw them away, else I will be convinced that I have poisoned myself and my family. Same goes for expiration dates on foods...

8. I Have to Pee, A LOT!

Of course, I can't just walk into a store and use their restroom, I feel obligated to buy something. I have the secret fear that, if I try to leave without making a purchase, the clerk will call me out, in front of God and everybody.

9. I Feel Sorry for Everyone

I tend to give away things that I make, instead of selling them.

10. L-O-R-R-A

If my sister calls and says that blah blah blah dot com has X for a crazy cheap price, I cannot resist....
