hahahaha! I'm such a girl sometimes! Which is funny, because normally I'm not. I'm a jeans and tee girl most of the time, but then there are times when I just wanna SHOP and find the cutest outfits. Pics below are what's IN my closet, and I still have nothing to wear.....SMH

I'll try to get some pics before I go out tomorrow. Can't promise though.

"CN" is CuterNicer...New Year's Eve NON-kisser. There was no NY'sE kiss, it was the figment of the host's imagination. The eyebrows I need to get done anyway, now I have to. Cause a girl can't go on a date with nasty eyebrows.

Hmm. I don't see anything in there, either. Definitely shopping time. I hear you, I'm the same way. Most of the time I couldn't care less and find it a pain, but every so often I get a real shopping jones...

Cassie, congrats for him on passing! Are you sure that he's required to be on your policy? I'm not sure about Georgia laws/regulations but in Louisiana, insurance isn't required until they get a license. They are covered on your policy b/c the insurance follows the vehicle. Most agent will add them to make a buck, but it's not required. Just food for thought. That's why if a vehicle here doesn't have insurance you're supposed to turn in the plate to the DMV. The driver only affects the rate.

From what I was able to determine, he has to be on there, but he's on as a "non-rated" driver. There is no change in the policy premium until he is fully licensed. It was so funny, though; the agent was going through, asking me his GPA and explaining the discount, and I'm thinking, cool, hubby and I get a discount 'cause our kid's a good student...then she caught herself and said since we weren't paying any additional for him for a year or more anyway, the discount wouldn't kick in till then. I really don't want to think about what the premiums will be at that time .

Amy That’s so crappy. I hope that your tests all go well, even though it’s ridiculous to get tests done at 7am on a Saturday.On a positive note it takes weeks to schedule tests here so at least you got fast service.

Cassie I went to see We Bought A Zoo it was really good I laughed and cried and at the end I found out it was based on a true story. I did not eat bad popcorn but I had 3-4 mints to treat myself for not giving in to the wonderful smell and that ruined my no sugar day but I am still better off than if I ate that popcorn. Yeah on your son passing his test, good luck on teaching him to drive. In our house we always assumed driving lessons would be a Dad job but it turned out he couldn’t deal with the stress so it became my job and much to the kids surprise I am a pretty good driving instructor.

Mern Green beans are a great sub for chips. I really like fish and chips it’s the English in me I wouldn’t of skipped the chips and they would of been soaked in malt vinegar and I would of ate them while craving a hot sausage roll and bangers and mash and ……oh this may be why I avoid fish and chips.lol

Tori Sorry I misread your date night so I will change my have fun to tomorrow night. Shopping yeah I am living vicariously through you all today Quinn gets new furniture, Mern gets deep fried fish and you get new clothes.

In defense of the people who we deal with daily that appear to be mindless and unable to think for themselves many of them work for companies and managers that will not allow them to do anything but quote the script. A few years ago I was asked to take over a store and the employees all seemed well, um ...useless, when I started to ask how would you solve this or do this I got” however we are told” so after a couple months of retraining and asking questions like what do you think, how would you like to see this done it turned out I had 14 amazing, smart, happy people and well 1 not so useful one. So if you are blessed enough to be in a job where you are appreciated and you have the ability to be the best you can be that’s awesome but many people just have to go to work and do what they are told and they aren't very happy or treated very well.

I hope you all enjoy your evening.
