We've received a 'Save the Date' for a wedding at Castle Howardin August 2013. Formal invitation to follow. I think it will definitely be a case of a new hat!!

Wow, Vanessa! Yes a new hat should be in order for that.

I adore hats, and used to wear them in the 80s/early 90s. Sadly, it just seems harder to get away with them without excessive commentary anymore.

I want this to be a best thing. It isn't easy to feel that way about it, though.

Getting a good grade on my test. Not big, but I did awful on the last one.

Good for you Diane! I know it's tough, but I firmly believe, if more people stood up, this kind of behavior in the workplace would diminish. Probably never go away, but lessen.

Nefret...congrats on the good grade!

Faith, thank you. Last night I felt hollowed out, but am at least stable today. Maybe tomorrow I'll get to that whole Empowered, I-am-woman kind of triumph.

Tomorrow I talk with a VP in HR whom I know respects and likes me a great deal. So it could happen.

Thank you.

Today's Best Thing was taking 20 minutes this afternoon to walk outside with my best friend at work. And not talking about work much at all. Brisk, beautiful out, good for us, and a restorative break.

Oh I'm so glad someone else hates those fascinators, even the small ones are awful, They look cute on little girls but grown women, nooooooooooo!!!!

That's a fabulous venue for a wedding Vanessa, the photos will be lovely.

Definitely not a fascinator!

LOL.

I would imagine you are allowed to take photos. It's open to the public normally.
