Part of a post on the flylady group:

I have always joked that if you wanted to see how my marriage was going, check my visa bill. If it's high with lots of $100 trips to Target or Marshalls, we're not getting along. If it's low, things are better.

When my first son was born, it all happened again, only with baby things, clothes, toys etc...I had multiples of everything! People called my house a daycare center because of all the toys.

Guilt, guilt, guilt meant stuff, stuff, stuff.
