Not doing too bad, me thinks :)

[Lisa Kay, Moderator]

Very good, Noelle! When you say "wife beater," are you referring to the type of top she is wearing?

[Joann]

Congrats, Kirsten!!

Haha, yes I am, Lisa! The character on the cover of the book is definitely not a wife-beater.

And I've added a few more.

Almost there, Jenn!

Haha! I even edited it to make it more clear. Now that I've thought about it, I can see how it could be taken that way! :D

And Jenn - you're kicking butt! We will have to find some books with a quilt or a zebra on them. Lol.

[Susan (susayq ~), Moderator]

Or queens and zepplins LOL

[Lisa Kay, Moderator]

I don't know... I kind of like Stephanie's "quintessential badass" and "zombie white trash" - LOL!

[Lisa Kay, Moderator]

Oh! I thought of one I've wanted to use: "quixotic" lover of... - fill in the blank.

Susan - I haven't been on here in such a long time. Haven't read really in the past couple of months except for here and there. Unfortunate for me! I've been swamped @ work & no free time honestly. Trying to plan my wedding as well :). How are things with you!?

[Lisa Kay, Moderator]

Wedding? WEDDING! Oh, congrats, Hayley! When is it planned?

[Susan (susayq ~), Moderator]

Things are great here! I'm trying to decide if I want to quit my job at the end of the school year. My girls are definitely old enough to stay at home by themselves during the summer (youngest is 11 and oldest at home is 16), but they want to go to Georgia and visit Hubs during the summer and we all want to go see my mom in Louisiana. And honestly, I don't want to work. My house would be cleaner if I stayed home LOL

When's the wedding? Congrats!

[Hayley]

Lisa - Well so far all we have is a date LOL. We are thinking of 9.22.2012. Right now we can't decide if we want to get married on the beach (where we live) or go to Gatlinburg, Tenn, because it's cheaper up there and they plan everything for you. I'm cutting it close! We don't want to go to the court house - but we don't want anything extravagant either. Just a few family members and friends :).

[Hayley]

Susan - Getting married 9/22/2012 hopefully hehe.

And, I wish I could quit my job, I am so sick of working and I'm only 26! I have a long road ahead. I just cannot stand customer service. Been in this business for way too long and nowadays it seems no one is ever happy. So it makes the days tough that's for sure.

What do you as far as work?? (And I definitely understand on the house being clean part. I feel like after I work and do this and that, my day is spent and I have not a minute left to do much. )

2 more!

[Susan (susayq ~), Moderator]

Hayley, I am a certified elementary school teacher who is wasting her time teaching a 3 year old preschool class at a private daycare for minimum wage while the local school system continues to cut back :) Did I say that sweetly enough? You couldn't hear the disdain in my voice, could you? LOL

[Hayley]

No no not at all Susan :). I feel your pain on that one though. I have several friends who are teachers and where we live they cut back so much it's so hard to even find a teaching job anywhere that most of them are working in customer service because that's all that is out there (well here at least).
