Had been extremely frugal.
But five round trips to Florida in last 18 months.

Money Spent On Life Experiences, Not Material Things, Brings Happiness

Because I LBYM for so many years, I don't splurge anymore, I just get to buy whatever I want....definately wine, and eating out and travel and even possibly a ...gulp...boat
What is interesting is that many lovely experiences are also free or low cost - a picnic lunch, a walk in the forest, visiting a tide pool, riding bikes, a day at the beach, sipping wine on the patio, visiting a museum or garden, going to a cook out, taking an art class, reading a mystery novel or a nice visit with friends.
I do like to go out for interesting ethnic food I don't know how to cook at home - like Thai or Indian. We also plan to splurge on more travel in the future.
