There is nothing worse than being alone when you go to buy potatoes: Huge 5-10 lb bag of potatoes= super cheap. a few loose potatoes= A MILLION DOLLARS. Grocery jerks! This is why I buy the instant mashed potato w/ instant gravy pouch. LOL

I'm sorry you single ladies have endured the insensitive comments, but I will add, none of us were born married and most of us have been there too. I was married and then suddenly and unexpectedly widowed when my husband died....something that I have in common with CC. I was fortunate enough to have met yet another wonderful man and remarried several years later. I get where you are because I've been there too. Not complaining-------standing with you!!!

I had no idea... I'm so sorry for your loss.

Medgal, since you were looking for rose gold polishes, I came across a Ciate Caviar set in rose gold today, maybe your daughter would like that:

I think it's called Gleam.

Group hug! To everyone who has lost their loved ones, and to those who are single, but also to those who are in my situation: I am married with 3 children, been with my husband for 16 years, married for nearly 14. The children are hard work, I'm a stay-at-home mum, it gets boring and lonely sometimes (although I have some good friends I see during the day), my husband and I don't have much time alone and we argue a lot especially about the children. Sometimes I do think it would be better to be single, but I couldn't support my children and they wouldn't want to be without him, neither would he without them. So we plod along. I can't say it's a happy marriage, but I guess once you have children, you make things work for their sake as well. So I think, there's no point in envying others for what you might think they have, single people aren't happier than married people (except maybe newly-weds
winks.gif
) and vice versa. Marriage isn't the best thing in the world, it doesn't necessarily mean living with someone you are in love with. I love my husband for a lot of things, but I can't say I'm in love with him anymore. Marriage is about compromises, but it's also about supporting each other. It's nice to have someone to come home to, but sometimes it's also nice to come home to an empty house.

I hope we all find what we want and can be happy regardless of our marital status.

And what's better to make us happy? NAIL POLISH!

This came in the post today. I'm still waiting for loads from Llalrowe. When is the CbL restock, is it this Wednesday? Or was that something else?

​Thanks for your sentiments Naynadine. I didn't share that to make anyone uncomfortable. It's just that things aren't always as they seem. If we all threw our problems into a pile and really examined them, we'd probably take back our own!!!!

That's polish is really beautiful Naynadine. Thank you!!! It actually looks like the Estee Lauder Rose Gold that I ordered. The only place I could find it was Saks 5th Ave and I usually avoid Saks because they charge an arm and a leg for shipping. I found an online code and was able to get free shipping. I think I'll wait for the two NPs that I ordered to come first. I'll see which one she likes. After all, how many bottles of Rose Gold polish does one need.

I don't really know anyone where I'm living and people really don't talk to you unless they want to sell you something and I don't have any money so I'm no fun LOL I'm just whiny about the groceries.... but seriously how can a 4L bag of milk cost less than a 2L carton??? (if you haven't seen bagged milk, google it for fun!)

We used to have bagged milk in Hungary! You had to keep it in a jug to stay upright.

I can't complain about more costing less, I feed 5 people, so I need more all the time!

That's the kind! I do buy it occasionally if I have someone to split it with. Maybe if I bought the filtered kind I could buy bagged... If it had a date a month away.

Great now me too. We had our first 'snow' (Blowing snow/ice that did not keep on the ground) here... so I celebrated with a pine scented candle and a cup of hot chocolate! :)

Current mani is Deborah Lippman Satin Doll, a much tamer hue than I usually wear, but I like it! I have Nails Inc gell effects on half the nails, and forgetting about Seche Vite I put the Julep Freedom (Gel like) top coat on the other half. 24 hours, and I am not noticing a difference so far. I like Seche vite better than both I think.

Anneri, you look so beautiful and happy!!!

I have been lurking the past week or so. Just my luck we had an office fire (everyone is ok) but we had to move out of our office into a temporary location. The last week has been horrible.

I miss CC too!

I'm tempted to get Minuit every swatch I've seen is so pretty!


So sorry to hear about your car and relationship. Best advice I can give is to keep busy! That's the only way I was able to keep my mind off things most of them time. The gym really helped too..




Love those Zoyas!

I was sooo tempted by the rbl sale but I sat it out. Well, let me rephrase that. I went to her site and it was down so I took that as a sign that I didn't need anything lol



Emerald crush is gorgeous!! Love how rich the color is and that added sparkle

I have 3 kids. I regularly get questioned about how much food we buy in the supermarkets - but even though the boys are small they are are really healthy and growing (and slim in spite of how much they eat!!) and teenage girls are HUNGRY when they get back from school. We go through about 10litres of milk a week, 3-4 loaves of bread, 4-5 kgs of fruit etc etc We mainly eat at home as it's not really worth taking everyone out to eat most of the time - its easier to cook something quick at home.

I'm quite lucky with my husband, we are still quite in love after all this time. But we have a blended family and it's rarely smooth or easy. My husband works a lot and feels pulled in every direction and kids, well, they respond to stress. And I'm the ultimate introvert and seem to struggle to find a corner to myself many days (or a finally sink into one and someone stick their head around the corner to tell me about the funniest thing that happened today). I use painting my nails as a breather sometimes ('no mummy has wet nail someone else will have to pull your lego apart') but even then I get aksed to do the kids nails!! I have the only preschooler with skittle glitter nails in his class.

Nice to see you, Honey! Oh, a fire, that's a terrible thing to happen. Good to hear no one was hurt and I hope you did not get big damages.

I'm thinking of Minuit, too.

Thanks! It's much darker than I expected (looks just emerald glitter in the bottle with a slight duochrome shift which does not show up on the nail though) and more matte than the previous Isadora sands I've worn.
