I've never been faucet shopping.
Since my husband had other things to do today, we didn't make it out today either. We are going to have to replace our kitchen faucet. I know nothing about them except for maybe a few brands. Who knows if I'll end up with a Moen, Kohler or Delta faucet. I don't care one way or the other, as long as the leak is gone!

financial advising
I've never been for financial advising before.
Now, we have regular appointments with an adviser to help us get our finances in order before our son starts college. We have two years to try to get things in order and the adviser is going to show us the best ways to get financial aid, as well as to save and maybe even invest.

acne treatment
I've never been to get acne treatment.
I was pretty lucky as a teen not to have too much trouble with acne. But my husband did and now my son struggles with it too. He uses a gel prescribed by our doctor to help keep it under control. He also uses an over the counter regimen daily. He has tried many different things, but right now, these are helping to keep it a bit at bay.
Since everyone is different, it's hard to find something that will help control each individual's acne. Looking at information about many different products can help make a decision, but it often comes down to having to try a few to see what works best for your skin. Then, you can find the best way to keep your skin acne free.

Mechanical Turk
I had never been to Mechanical Turk before.
I saw this in a magazine. It is run by Amazon.com and is a list of small tasks that can help you earn money in small increments. There are loads of tasks that pay from .01 to a few dollars. They are very small and easy tasks, from identifying pictures to finding definitions to answering surveys. The pay is very small but adds up if you have some time to spend each day doing small tasks. It looks like you are paid in Amazon.com gift certificates which is great for those who love online shopping. I am going to give it a try and see if I can earn a little extra money.

get a lawyer
I've never been to get a lawyer.
Which is something to be thankful for. I know folks need lawyers for a myriad of reasons. Some need worker's comp lawyers, Mesothelioma lawyers, divorce lawyers, custody lawyers, civil rights lawyers, personal injury lawyers and a host of other things. As for me, I am very happy to say that none of these issues have ever arisen in my life. And I would love for it to stay that way!

virtual school
I've never been to a virtual school.
I have heard of these online public schools, but only recently have any become available in our area. They are a way to get a free public education while at home. Teachers are in place, with the parent being a learning coach. Books, schedules and supplies are all provided free of charge. The ones in our area are available for students in grades 3-8, with one school having just added ninth grade to their program.
My two nephews are now enrolled in one of these schools. They have nice new books and all supplies were sent, including paint, jump rope, science kit and music kit! My daughter wants to enroll as well. There is no room at this school in her grade. We are now looking at another one available. Maybe they still have room for a student her age.

ticketless
I've never been ticketless for a trip I was about to take.
We have some friends who were to depart overseas this week. They are older and a bit nervous about the extended flying time. But when they called to confirm their flight they found their tickets were never processed! They were literally not on the flight, they were ticketless!! Needless to say, this put a real damper on the whole trip before it ever got started. There were other problems that precipitated this current ordeal, but they eventually got tickets and left only one day later than planned.
In their quest to scurry and rebook their trip, travel info was of prime importance. Normally locating as cheap airline tickets as possible would have been a higher priority. But as the departure date was close at hand, finding cheap flights was not their main concern.
After much grief, they were able to reschedule their itinerary. They did have to change airlines along the way, but were off yesterday. We are awaiting word on their safe arrival.
