I haven't updated about Compacting lately because there hasn't been much to tell. How many times can you say "I bought nothing new this month."?I am afraid that it may change soon, though.
Compacting in a small town sucks. At least compacting in this small town sucks.
I have been (what I am told are) the two biggest thrift stores in town and it was pathetic. I thought the fact that I don't need "stuff" would make it ok... clothes can't be that hard to find, right? The mens jeans section of the bigger store had exactly two pair of jeans. I couldn't even find the mens section of the smaller store.
So my options are -
1. Keep trying.
2. Drive to Jackson or Tuscaloosa (each 1 1/2 hours, in different directions) once a month as needed.
3. Try other small town thrift stores - if there are any. As the county seat, we are the biggest town around.
4. Become nudists.
I don't even know how I am going to pull off Christmas or the two birthdays we have coming up.
Sigh...
