I am learning to quit. I am learning to just stop being an unconscious consumer. I have enjoyment of electronic gadgets so I confess that I upgraded a gadget this year.

I am learning because this is a process I began years ago but now the reason why I am learning to be a conscious consumer is not as selfish as when the process began.

I also confess it anxiety producing to give gifts during the winter season that one will not find in a mall - or any store for that matter.

And this a gift to you. Why you can't get what you want from the feds.
