This is my new phone that I got for Christmas. It is a prepaid cell phone that is unlike any previous plans and it's called Straighttalk. I pay just $45/month and it gives me unlimited minutes nationwide, plus unlimited texting (which
I never use), plus unlimited internet browsing. It has a full QWERTY keyboard that slides out, which is nice. The best part is that there is no contract to sign so you can never get behind on a payment. If you don't want to pay, you just don't have service until you do, but you don't owe anything. Another nice thing is that my number is a local call from my hometown. This service is carried by Walmart, and it's new. They tested it out in a few stores last summer and have recently expanded to many more. It was a very hot item at Christmastime. I highly recommend this plan to anyone looking for a cell phone provider! (You can also choose to only pay $30/month and that gives you 1000 minutes of talk time plus 1000 text messages and a certain number of hours of browsing.)
Laura has been begging me for a while to cut her hair. I finally gave in and did it. This wasn't the style we had in mind when we started, but it's what evolved. I am definitely an amateur hair-stylist, but I think it looks pretty cute, if I do say so myself. Laura loves it, and she's gotten lots of compliments on it.
