Sometimes when things are typed they sound different then they are intended, and I don't mean this in a mean way if that is how it comes across, but to say it isn't a major purchase to you doesn't make it not one for us. To us $1000 is a huge purchase. And while I do consider it to be a necessity, it's still a lot. To put it in perspective, you put $80,000 into your home, our home we paid less then $80,000 for, (and unfortunatly it is valued at even less then we paid for it now, but that's another story.
) So everyone's income being different $1000 is a lot to some people.
And I have gotten over it, quickly. T
he car was a different story, it took me a couple months of seeing tat we could in fact handle the payments to feel good about it, but the mattress I am excited about. I was cuddling my DH on the couch this morning aand he was saying he couldn't wait to hold me all night again
and I was so excited, so yes, I am totally over it, but that doesn't mean next time (probably the fridge) that I won't feel nervous again. I guess that's just part of who I am.
