Today I am taking my daughter and one of her friends shopping.  They love to shop for clothes and accessories, but what teen-aged girl doesn’t?  Ok me at that age.  I am not much of a shopper and never have been.  I have been told many times that I shop like a man.  You know the stereotypical male shopper right?  He knows what he needs, goes in and gets it and leaves.  If that is manly shopping then I must agree.  I shop like a man.
Now it’s a totally different story if you drop me into an art supply store. Â I will look at every single item, take off caps, smell things, etc. Papers must be felt with my hands for textural nuances. Â Price comparisons for canvas must be made. Â And look at all of those colors of paint! Â Every brush has to be pressed against my skin to determine it’s value. Â I can spend hours immersed in art supplies. Â So in this one way I am truly a “shopaholic”.
But today it is all giggles, lip-gloss and possibly neon tennis shoes. 😉  The only thing that makes the shopping part bearable for me is the fact that these ladies love a good bargain, so we will be hitting consignment shops and Goodwills.  You never know what you will find in those places. 🙂
