Donna, I have similar thoughts but a little bit of a different spin. I buy myself whatever I want, whenever I want it. You want to know why? Yes, nobody knows when their expiration date is. However, for us OC people it's a little more in our face (no pun intended)we are just lucky enough to realize what most people don't get a chance to. So I say...buy buy buy!!!

Buttercup...after 3 and half years I think you can treat yourself to new bedroom furniture!!! Paint, get new bedding...think how gorgeous it will be!!! You're not going anywhere, so I wouldn't worry about doing the room for your husband and his new wife (that did make me laugh though)
