Clothes/accessories/shoes for myself...with the exception that I could buy a bathing suit for my vacation in 2 weeks. I shop WAY too much, so this is going to be quite the challenge!<br /><br />-AJ<br />OccasionallyAJ.comOccasionallyAJhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11300923235205755263noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6578996577431253756.post-72443559984953483392014-03-07T02:38:23.695-06:002014-03-07T02:38:23.695-06:00I don't practice Lent, but I did give up Faceb...I don't practice Lent, but I did give up Facebook a couple months ago and I have no intention on going back. It has been hard to be out of touch with certain family members, but the productivity that I have gained from not being on facebook has made it so worth it.

I did really well with this as a teenager, but now that I don't regularly go to a catholic church anymore I tend to forget lent is happening. Last year, I spent lent cleaning out my life. I used it as spring cleaning. Gave away 40 pieces of clothing I no longer wore, spent 40 minutes everyday cleaning or organizing a different area of my room/ apartment/ life. The plan is to do that again this year, except the closet cleaning out part... I do not have 40 pieces of clothes I can give away right now. Maybe next year I'll do 40 good deeds... or 40 hours of volunteer work?<br /><br />http://amylynscarano.blogspot.comAmyLynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16281068764923561997noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6578996577431253756.post-66787136932063450392014-03-07T01:34:51.621-06:002014-03-07T01:34:51.621-06:00I could NEVER give up texting!

Every year for Lent I gave up My Laptop. LOL Silly me. I'm thrilled to say I was #Winning every year! I did it! (Only because I was grounded from my laptop anyways and my parents had hid it in a new strange place I couldn't find it) But that's neither here nor there, right? :) Good luck on the Starbucks i'm slurpin' down some Passion Tea as I type this! #SorryNotSorryBeccahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09368438259712891289noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6578996577431253756.post-6072021830357633342014-03-05T11:59:58.919-06:002014-03-05T11:59:58.919-06:00I loved this post!

I also think I have never completed a Lent, but I am doing it with my boyfriend as alcohol will be easy for him to give up and so rough for me and sugar is easy for me and terrible for him.
