It's official. I am officially regressing. I bought an enormous 5 feet tall and 5 feet wide stuffed teddy bear online yesterday for our apartment. A co-worker gave me a large stuffed teddy bear several months back and it's sitting in our spare bedroom, so I figured, why not? This bear needs a buddy and it's adorable!

Yep - Ok. I seriously think I may be losing it!!! I am nearly 50 years old!!!! LOL!

I have been shopping online lately a LOT as therapy. I've bought clothing, I've bought jewelry, and now a stuffed bear?? My husband even chipped in and bought me jewelry yesterday, in knowing that I've been depressed lately being cooped up at home.

But I've got to get a hold of myself. I am not overspending at all, I am spending within my means, but still... I feel like a shopaholic! I already have strong shopping tendencies, which have now only increased tenfold since this virus has kept us locked indoors.

I guess it's my coping mechanism and a way for me to cheer myself up. I tell my husband that it's like getting gifts in the mail, when they finally arrive, one by one. And it DOES cheer me up!!

How is everyone else coping with this???

In my state, we're not in "lockdown" per se since we're able to leave our apartment, drive around to different places and get takeout at restaurants, etc, walk the beach and there's no curfew or anything. But still, it's making me absolutely insane. I am sure I am not the only one going nuts right about now.
