Not slackin' yet

So yes, I only posted once last week.  It's ok though, because blog-worthy things were still happening. Or should I say blog-worthy shopping was happening!!

I love to shop but I used to have no $$ (no not my family, I just drank my $$ away when I was young) so I'm very tentative about shopping.  Which is actually a good thing.  I'm just always thinking that I can't afford things so I don't spend alot of money.  Recently, however, our dishes have been pissing me off.  I LOVED them when we first registered for them.  They are cool and "trendy" square plates in earth tones, square bowls and gigantic mugs.  They were awesome.  About 20 minutes after we got one the first one chipped.  No biggie, but I soon realized that that was not the first time they would chip. Especially once we bought a house with granite countertops.

So last week, there was a sale at Macy's and I saw these dishes and I really liked them.  So I bought them.  That is so not me but really, how do you pass up Buy One Get One on dishes!!  So here they are!

I know they aren't anything fancy, but I love them!  They make me very happy.  Normal round plates, with a nice pattern.  Sometimes I look at them and I think, does this make me old?  I'm am coming up on the big 3-0.  Does this mean that I'm not as fun and funky as I used to be?  Is this the last of my youth, slipping away with the dishes that we gave A's brother? Nah....these are so freaking cute I don't care.  I LOVE THEM!

Plus apparently A is planning some ridiculous big bash to say goodbye to all my youthfulness so I can't say goodbye yet...
