Diamonds vs boy toys:-)

[Bella_mezzo]

So, I am sitting here enjoying my awesome WF baby bezel dangles which arrived today!!!

Yay!!! and we bit the bullet and got DH''s "boy toy" celebration gift for his new job

a 40 inch samsung tv to replace our old 13 inch TV which weas alos a TV/VCR combo from 1993.

He''s ecstatic.

Why am I still up at 1:30 am? b/c he''s admiring the new TV

The good news is I also got to put in an offer for the LOGR bezel eternity band I''ve been wanting for a "for now" RHR, so we''ll see if that works out. After that we are DONE with big purchases for this year (and maybe next) but I am hoping to start collecting OECs for the my ultimate RHR, a 1.5-2 ctw OEC RHR in a trellis setting with pointy claw prongs between the stones and I think a half bezel on the outer edge of each outside stone (that will take a while to get off the ground though. My plan is to collect matching OECs for major events like birthday, anniversary, christmas...

Anyway, just wanted to share that DH thinks I''m nuts b/c I like sparkly things, but show him a gadget and he''s mesmerized. He was so cute though, we bought the TV and he almost had a panic attack in the store b/c he couldn''t believe that 1. we were actually buying it and 2. we were spending that much money at once

We usually live very frugally, but figured this was an excellent reason to splurge!

I love him so much, he really is adorable. (and we both love our awesome "big kid" toys

)

Bella - I laughed out loud when I opened this thread and read what it was about. When I saw the topic I thought to myself, "Hmmmm, diamonds or 20 year old Abercrombie Models. Tough choice."

Oh good. I''m not the only one whose mind went in the gutter!

Maybe "toys for boys"

ha-ha-ha-ha-ha...

yes, important difference

It''s a good thing in my house that DH like his toys and watches because it takes the pressure off me for buying my jewelry. Now I just need more spending money. BTW, we got the 42" Samsung this summer and love it.

The boys get their toys, we get diamonds, sounds good to me!!!

he''s in

, still in shock that we got it, but in

nonetheless. I have to say it''s beautiful. It feels pretty big in our 11X19 living room, and boy is he glad he made an 11th hour decision (literally 1 minute before best buy closed) to get the 40 and not the 46 inch Samsung. YIKES, the 16 inch would have been to big. I thought that all along, but he could do whatever he wanted with his budget so it wasn''t my decision. My eyes hurt with the 40, with the 46 I think I would have to stop watching TV

Today, he played with the TV and I did a photo shoot of my jewelry and posted it on SMTR and Colored stones...how obsessed can you get

Also, he''s making dinner and I did a ton of homework, so in all not a bad day.

WE have the 40" Samsung and it has been PERFECT!!! We love it! We''re planning on moving it up to our bedroom later this year (after the wedding) and getting a new Samsung LED (bigger of course bc FI is involved

) Samsungs have such GORGEOUS pictures and blue ray movies look amazing on them!

Now, I just need some "high def" studs for myself and we''ll be set
