@Daisys and Diamonds

You are so charming and funny. I hope Gary is doing better and you are taking care also. Best wishes for health.

I fell into the (figurative) pool and bought these to match a dress for a wedding. I jokingly blame everyone here for showing me colored stones.

Perfect for summer

@mellowyellowgirl, I laughed but I want to do the same thing!

Haha don’t do it!!! I have 5 versions of my “true self” natural looking wigs and no one cares when I wear them but people are all over my fake blonde or fake Ariel hair. I even get better service in shops with the fake blonde wig. It is bizarre!

He did! They are like adorable yummy jolly ranchers from actual gemstones I found that I liked, lol! My hubby is a photographer so it was, per his words “easy”… I tried to watch how he did it but I got lost- it wasn’t “easy”

I can have him give me step by step instructions how he did it and message you though if you want!

Here’s a couple others he did









That last one was a faint pink brown diamond in a pink cup

He’s so good!

i am so glad i got these
Gary has been very grumpy the last 3 or 4 days, i know he is allowed to be, its been really hard on him , he had so many things wrong with him then falling at home after only being home 2 hours and having to go back in an ambulance, then catching the flu and then getting a tummy bug while in the hospital, but he has been really hard work
i dont know what happened to all the i love yous i was getting last week ?
i guess that was my quota

Oh honey it must be awfully hard. You have the patience of a saint.

How old is Gary?

How old is Gary?

he is 72 almost 73
the doctor and the physotheripst both said he is a young and strong 72 but he needs to rebuild muscle, the pyscihterpist said that should not be hard
he has been perscribed zinc -he got low from not eatting when he was really sick, and also these special milk protein drinks from the diatitican to have with lunch
he has like little girl arms right now, not his usual builder's arms and legs
he needs lots of meat and dairy -im not complaining !
this morning he managered our horrible shower over bath
so much of it is just frustraion on his part, his PC sulked with him away, he thinks its blown a fuse, normally he would fix it (we might have to send it in to the place around the road quite close to home)
