So tonight I needed to find my Social Security card...for new job. I knew I had it just didn't know where it landed as I probably didn't need is for the past year. In the search I decided to look through all my purses to see if maybe it had fallen out...I'm notorious for leaving papers in my purses when I switch them.
Well after pulling out all my purses from the closet...I realized just how large the pile was......then counted! 37 of them! This does not include business totes, gym bags or back packs...that would bring the number way up!
The worst part is I had no idea that I had that many! I just ordered a new one! Worse now that they were all out in a pile my husband knows too!
So what is it sin, obsession or addiction that makes me buy all these purses?

It's a girl thing?
LOL!
Ahem....you're seriously asking, aren't you?
Is it a sin? Who am I to judge that?
Is it an obsession? Quite possibly.
An addiction? Well, that depends on how often you buy a new purse.
If you're buying a new purse just for the sake of buying one because you like it, then yes - that's obsessive. But don't a lot of women do that? I personally don't understand why, but then people probably don't understand why I like to collect magazines I never read. (Of course, I haven't done that in a long time. But I used to.)
More than anything, I would venture a guess that you simply have a bit of a hobby, based on an intense interest in fashion.

It's called having style and spending money on fun things. <g> As long as you have enough cash to buy food and pay your bills, buy all the purses you want, honey!

Definitely a girl thing. I also never throw anything out...which is a bonus here because some of the older ones are back in style again! yeah!
Some women love shoes and some women are clothes horses - but some women loves purses. I'm a purse girl too! I still have purses from over ten years ago, but I don't want to let them go. I'm attached.
So, if you're sinning, obsessive, or addicted, you have a partner in crime!!
