Bras. I really thought I would be the only one. I just cannot find any that fit. I am big around but not big busted And can't stand any that are tight so haven't been able to find anything even close. It didn't use to be so hard but styles have changed and it's even harder than before to find ones that are big enough without having huge cups.

I need to find something to hang on the wall over our bed. I just don't know what I want and nothing I've seen is telling me that's it.

We need a new couch for our family room. The one we have is broken down and super uncomfortable. I just don't have the energy to go furniture shopping and deal with the sales clerk that is on you from the moment you step in the door.

Also, a haircut! I'm way past due, just haven't found the time or been able to connect with my step-sis, who is also my hair stylist.

We probably need a new SUV. Literally once a week something seems to go wrong with Bertha. She's old and has a lot of miles, I get it. But she's paid off and we've put a lot into her already... Also, she's got every bell and whistle we could ever want and then some so any replacement vehicle will not be half so nice. And who wants a car payment for something they won't be happy with?

We need a new stove. Our oven hasn't worked right since the last batch of Christmas cookies in December. DH has replaced the heat sensor and the heating element. The oven only works when it wants to. We should replace it but neither of us wants to spend the time or money to do so.

The carpeting going up my stairs, landing and bedroom. Lower floor is all hardwood. I can't decide what I want to do with the stairs and upstairs. If I go hardwood, does it have to match downstairs. Then what about the third floor. Do I have to do those stairs and that bedroom as well. Or should I just replace it with new w/w carpet.

a new couch (ours is pretty pitiful -- the recliner end is broken and won't go up or fully close!
a new mattress-- can't agree with DH about what to get, even though we have looked -- so we tend to just wind up without making a decision. But we REALLY need one soon.

We need new carpet badly. Our carpet is 15 years old and survived 2 teen boys and their many friends. We are hoping our refund will be enough to cover it. I would prefer to do hardwood floors but really don't have the money for that.
I need to buy some new clothes. I have lost so much weight that everything just hangs on me. I hate clothes shopping so much though. Anyone want to take me shopping?

We need a new chair in the living room. This chair was part of a couch/loveseat/chair set. The chair is the only thing that made the move in 2014. I thought I'd replace it and the futon that we bought for the living room before moving in, once we redid that room. Well, 3.5 years later, we're still not finished with the upstairs. I keep thinking I'm going to replace it anyway and go looking and then decide to wait again. It's only happened 2x so far, maybe 3 times is a charm and I'll finally make the purchase. Of course, nothing is really jumping out at me and saying, "this would be perfect" either.

New countertop/sinks for the master bathroom. Of course that also means painting, which it desperately needs, maybe new mirror and light fixtures. It's too big to deal with right now when we have other health issues to handle.

A car/truck. They are just so expensive. Even the used cars are expensive.
I can afford just about anything but I spent. 50 grand on a pos chevy traverse that is now dead in my driveway, that I can't see ever spending that type of money again.

I need to replace my mobile (cell) phone but I really don't know which is best. I want to buy one up front instead of paying on a monthly contract because it's cheaper overall, but I don't know which one to get.

Ugh. New flooring for our downstairs and living room furniture. I dread it. We recently purchased a new car. After 18 months of research. Guess what we bought? Same exact thing we had! You are my spirit animal. Ditto on the flooring and car. We're on our 3rd Toyota Highlander. We currently own 2. Dark silver and light silver. LOL Oh see you got all fancy with light silver AND dark silver. We got white. Again. Same as the last four cars we’ve purchased.

New fence, new hot water heater, contacts and glases for me, a couple of suits for spouse (retiring from the military in a few months)..,putting it off because money and time constraints.
Ugh.
It was a used car for oldest, I dragged my feet as long as I could but he and spouse brought one home last week, which naturally needs some $$$ work done to pass registration inspection.

I really need a new phone. I just hate the thought of dropping $800+ on it. Plus I love my android but everyone says I need an iPhone and all of our computers are Apple The other thing I'm missing on my Android phone is FaceTime. Why isn't there an app to make that work on Android?

Several things! We tend to hold on to stuff forever. I don't change stuff or replace stuff just to have new and DH isn't a shopper, and we both suck at making up our minds, so stuff around the house stays until we can't take it anymore. We have a list right now of things we really need to replace, and we keep putting it all off. We need a sofa...like really need it...it's starting to suck you in and not let you go, LOL! But I know that if I get a new sofa, I'll want to get a chair to match and some new throw pillows, and probably a new area rug, because our current sofa is blue and we based everything off of that. I've been checking out the internet and unless we purposely order something in a fabric with a similar color, that color just isn't being offered right now (and really, I don't need to keep that color forever), but that means the rest of what we have won't coordinate nicely with the new sofa. I'm far from a home decor guru. So this is hard work for me. Also, we need a new table & chairs in the kitchen, but we cannot decide what we want. DH likes one style, I like another, and then we keep tossing around ideas of moving the table, or getting a bench & chairs instead of just chairs, or even going with a built-in bench with storage on one side. We can't decide. One day soon I expect the chairs will start falling apart and we'll be forced to choose then. yeah, we're pathetic.

For sure, bras. I need to pick up some new ones (and get rid of the other ones!). Yes, definitely bras! I'm down to 2 (don't laugh). I just have so little time to myself that it sucks to use it finding bras.

I need a dresser. Apparently what I like/want may not exist, I still haven't found the one. I too need new throw pillows and can't find what I like in stores. I went to calico corners the other day and got samples of several fabrics. Hopefully I can get rolling on that soon. did you look at Rejuvenation? They are online and also have a store in Seattle I think.

I really need new glasses. I actually got my eyes checked last year about this time, but then I couldn't find frames I liked, so I never did get the glasses. Now I will need a new exam, and I bet they will say I need BIFOCALS. He mentioned it last year and I said NO WAY. My prescription is so strong, I have to get the glasses at Lenscrafters so they will be as thin as possible, and they are expensive. My current pair is several years old, 5+ years maybe, and even back then they cost over $800. So many other uses for that money.

Tennis shoes to workout in- I try them on in the store and walk around thinking these will work. I get home with them, try them on again and always go back to my old ones. And I mean OLD- like 5-6 years. So back they go. I do this 2-3 times a year and can't find a pair that I like. I know I will have to break in a new pair- they discontinued the ones I have of course.
And I need to invest in some GOOD sports bras.

And I need to invest in some GOOD sports bras. I have the exact same issue with tennis shoes. Never regular shoes. But I buy a pair, I try them on and they seem ok in the store, I wear them once to workout and then I don't like them. I have decided that I am going to go to a specialty store and have them fit me for shoes instead of picking out my own.

Airline tickets. I'm pretty sure we missed the window for good prices, now I just have to bite the bullet and buy them. 5 tickets. International. Ouch.

Nothing really major. I finally went to the eye doctor yesterday and had an exam and got new glasses. It had been four years since my last exam. I also need to get a shingles vaccine. I’ve been putting that off for five years. I have a tough time forking out the $60 or so dollars for something so unexciting. I’m sure if I get shingles, I will be very sorry I procrastinated.
I need items to decorate my dinning room wall. I’m trying to do a collage and only have one item so far. I can picture what I want in my mind, but can’t find it. I need throw pillows for the family room also, but I think I will end up making those.
Finally, I need dog clippers to do the sanitary area and foot pads on my goldendoodle. I have scoured online and can’t seem to make a decision. This is not rocket science. I’m not planning on using them to shave the whole dog, so they don’t have to be anything heavy duty.

I need to buy my slot for a succulent wreath workshop my friend is doing. I have the money, I have my phrase and color picked out and I’m super excited for this workshop. I keep dragging my feet because the deadline isn’t for another two weeks so I keep putting it off.
