I'm starting to look for my upgrade studs. I'm sweating this though because this is supposed to be my last upgrade so I have to get it right because I'm going all in at 2+ cts. (which will be giant on me but I don't care) After reading about the debacle with CBI and that whole rabbit hole I am now at a loss.

Maybe if I would have began chiropractic care five years ago instead of cracking my own back, my lumbar pain wouldn’t have escalated. Biting the bullet, have consultation this week. I hope it works:confused2:

I forgot my wedding anniversary is today or yesterday (29th). I received my lightbox diamond ring from David Klass and spent half the day staring and taking pictures when my husband handed me flowers later that evening. I thought he was apologizing for washing the dishes (instead of cleaning them, he had gotten oil from somewhere all over each dish and didn't notice). Plus he had used almost 1/4 of the dish detergent for that event. Lol It turns out he didn't even notice I had to rewash the dishes. Ooops. Well, our legal wedding was in July and this is our cultural wedding date... there was a lot going on the past few days...:oops2::roll2::(2

Off to find your photos!

As for our getting married twice our family doesn't recognize the first one as we eloped but we cherish both occasions. The elopement symbolizes that I finally felt ready after a long engagement so much so that we impulsively eloped a few months before the "big" wedding. It was very romantic actually. But my family to this day will not acknowledge that date so we get cards and gifts on the anniversary of our formal wedding date. But Greg and I hold dear to the date we eloped too.

So best of both if you will. When we remember that is. One year we forgot both dates hahaha. But at least now we have double the chance to remember one of the dates any given year, right? :lol:

Our elopement on a very very hot humid August day.
It was the most impulsive thing I have ever done. I am a planner and this was spur of the moment. I decided I was finally ready on a Sunday we went to City Hall to file the papers that Monday and got permission to get married on Tuesday (there was a 24 hour cooling off period in those days) which we did and then Greg went to work. :lol:

That bouquet was being sold on the steps of City Hall and Greg said let me get flowers for you. They were fake. The guy wanted $20. Which at the time was a lot (to me lol). So I balked and said no but Greg insisted saying it's our wedding day cmon. LOL so I let him get those fake flowers. I still have them to this day. :kiss:

OY to the vey and yes I get it. At my age I can easily pull muscles in my sleep or just doing absolutely nothing. Sad but absolutely true! :wink2:

One of our cats scared me this morning. I was going to get in the shower while DH took the dogs out for potty (like I usually do). I had just turned the water on when I heard a thud next to me. My little tuxedo girl had fallen off the little (4" tall) plastic bin she was sitting on and turned stiff with drool coming out. It lasted maybe two seconds. She was terrified after but perked up for breakfast. Ate it all and purred. Vet appointment scheduled for later this week plus on wait list. Can go to emergency if we have to. Scheduled the other two cats while I was on the phone since it is time for a check up anyway. Always something with animals!

Sounds like a seizure. Fingers crossed it's nothing to worry about.

That is how I described it to the vet's office when I called in. I got a call a bit later in the morning. They were able to fit her in this afternoon but urged me to consider an office closer to home if possible to minimize stress on her from a long car ride. No one is accepting new patients and is a week or more out even for established patients so I made the drive. I'm currently sitting in the car waiting for them to finish getting her blood drawn, urine sample, and blood pressure checked.

I love my vet! They do good work and take the time to explain why and what they are looking for. They have also been able to fit me insane day a couple of times now for an urgent issue. (Yes, thank you goodies for whole office will follow!)

We enjoyed “A Castle for Christmas.” Totally predictable (duh!) but enjoyable nonetheless!

I'm so happy I had my pear ring recast in unplated white gold. I just prefer the look. Lesson learned. I need to always go with my gut. DH asked me how and why did I get so indecisive over the years. I honestly don't know why...(sigh)

Hugs Missy. I hope that rest and peace comes sooner rather than later.

Thank you for sharing this - it struck a chord as I'm sure it does for many of us. I just sent to one of my friends who might especially appreciate being recognized in it.

I'll be on and off (mainly off) as I have to manage some puppy quality of life stuff.

Earrings are on hold right now.

I'm so tired right now.

Yay the days are getting longer.
We are on the upswing,
Yesterday was the Winter Solstice and today each day gets longer.
Yes it might be only by a few seconds each day but eventually it adds up.

So happy Winter everyone.
