Freaking Amen.
Sahm also. But, i always manage to bring home some money every month with odd ventures. But, it is astounding how people treat me or the little comments made when they know Ive spent x amount on a bag. Excuse me. I may be "just a SAHM" but i manage to make money, cook all the time, never go to nail salons, get haircuts twice a year if I am lucky and rarely drink or go out. Dont take away one of my few personal joys in life.
I know women who tell me that they cant believe i woukd spend so much on an lv but buy thousnds in coach/mk/db, lularoe and costume jewelry every year. My obssession just happens to cost more up front and collectively take up less room in my home. I also have no issue bringing this to their attention. That is how i deal with their snide comments.

I've been called spoiled by family, friends and strangers. I have also been a stay at home majority of my 25 year marriage and believe me there were NO DAYS OFF!! NONE!! I earned every single thing I have whether I punched a time clock or not and the hubs will be the first one to tell you that. In our home, it's not HIS money, it's OURS. I refuse to walk around in shame because others are pissed off that I'm wearing or carrying something expensive and nasty comments is all they have. I don't flaunt my wares so that's their messed up issue, not mine.
