My need for perfection is costing me a fortune

Even when I was a child I was extremely picky.

When it came to everything from eating, what I would wear, or what I wanted in my bedroom, I was really difficult to deal with.

Now,, as an adult, all of those same things can make life very expensive. I even work two jobs just to pay for the expensive things that I want. It isn’t only the fact that I like the finer things, I find that in order to have things that will last for years to come, I must find higher quality pieces. I could buy from one of those stores that scream about low prices but most of the items they have are simply junk. Now, we are lucky to have a custom furniture place here in town that will incorporate your choice of wood, size of the piece you want, and fabric of finishes to match your decor. I am willing to save up for each piece I order and wait to have it made. I take a lot of pride in my home and it shows. Many people my age buy things because they are cheap and don’t care if they have to replace them in a few years. I figure in ten or twenty years, when I still have the stuff I worked so hard for, they will regret doing things the way they did. Yes, being picky about things can be costly, but in the long run well worth the hassle. Take the time and find a quality piece and you will treasure it for a very long time.
