Hi Girls,
Junebug, From my experience rings are much daintier looking In person than in photos. The ring I bought before Christmas, I never would have given a second look if I had only seen a photograph of the ring. The ring was inexpensive as far as jewlery goes but it is one of my favorites. It looks so delicate in person. You are taking your time and doing everything correct. It's usually when you rush and don't think things thru that you make a bad decision. I wish I was more like you and not buy the first thing I think I'm in love with. I have made plenty of jewelry mistakes. All your purchases are gorgeous. You have such good taste!
Your husbands's snoring had laughing. My husband's snoring was so loud this morning he woke up himself and the dog. She usually sleeps in between us and I can always tell when she has had enough of his snoring. She gets up and moves to the other side of me.
Are you ready for your San Antonio trip or have you been putting all your efforts into finding your new ring?
Missy, You know how much I would love to go to an antique jewelry show. We have an out of town wedding on July 25 that we have to attend. There is no possible way I can get out of attending the wedding. The wedding is in a small town in Iowa and I doubt I can talk My husband into driving the 6 hours home after the reception so I could fly out early the morning of the 26th. He just told me that's a crazy idea as we wouldn't get home till 4:00 AM and I would be flying with no sleep at all. Unfortunately that weekend won't work for me. I'm soooo disappointed. I could seriously cry right now!
What is it with men and motorcycles. My husband had been talking about one years ago. My SIL's 22 year old nephew had one at the time and decided to go for short ride one beautiful evening in the summer. He had gotten off work around 10:00 pm came home, took his bike and said he'd be home in about 15 minutes. He was killed by some who hit him and took off. They never found the person who killed him. After that my husband didn't metion the bike again. We bought a convertible which made me so happy and we both had fun enjoying the car. You hear way too many tragic stories about motorcycles.
I love your new boots! We have a wedding in May and the one in July. I have no idea what I am going to wear so I'm going to have to begin looking. I can never find things when I have a specific need but if I have nothing going on I can find 20 beautiful dresses.
Jimmianne, Thank you for posting the video. It must be so beautiful where you live with all that land! Your daughter is a cutie! It's great that there are lots of options within your OEC budget. I can't believe how good you are at finding beautiful pieces. Have you always had this gift for finding jewelry? What do you think is the largest size diamond you would feel comfortable wearing? I think it would be interesting to hear what our preference's are. Your OTT question really has me thinking.
Kristie, I loved your ring story. It's so nice when they know how much you want something and make it happen for you. My husband thinks jewelry is a waste of money so I know when he buys me something or gives the go ahead on an expensive piece it truly is to make me happy. Bob sounds like a keeper! I can't wait for you to begin shopping for your two carat diamond. Fun times are ahead for all of us as we get to live vicariously thru you! I love that we all share our shopping experiences with each other. No one in my real life understands my love of jewelry.
I have an appointment to have a mammogram tomorrow and am so stressed about it. I seriously want to cancel the appoinment. I am that afraid. I'm also glad you mentioned having copies of your tests. I'm know the doctor I see for my ovary issue also wants to see my mammogram film even through another doctor orders them and gets the results. He is adamant about seeing them which I'm glad because if I ever have a problem I would definately see the doctor he recommends over anyone else.
Marcy, I'm sorry your weather is still bad. How was your poker party. Did you have fun? We missed the snow they were calling for and only had a dusting. Are you still looking for dishes?
OV, Please keep us posted on your mom's health and try not to stress to much. I worry about you because you have too much going on right now and all this stress can really effect your health. I'm sure that is the reason you gave not been able to completely shake the bug that has been making you sick the past month. Please try to get enough rest. I know it is so much easier said than done.

) The obvious downside to looking online is not being able to see the item in person. I have been playing around with the idea of just heading into NYC and checking out the ring (and others) at DBL. That would really make the most sense! Maybe it's the weather, but the idea of trudging into NY right now is overwhelming to me, I think I'll be more up for it when this weather breaks.
And then there's all the money we spent on my original ER and lost so much on when we traded it with Adam. I don't even want to think about it. So just know you are not alone and big hugs to you. I hope you are not beating yourself up about it.
