O emm geee... I just followed an auction on livestream in Spanish where I placed an email bid on a freakin' TIARA.

IF (IF!!!!!) I understand everything right in the live stream I won the thing. I CANNOT SPEAK to anyone in my RL about this (DH is at work in a meeting).... And my kids don't care one bit....

Please keep your fingers crossed for me....I'm very excited

You're wearing it everywhere for at least a month. You will not acknowledge it. Play it totally straight. It will just be.
Oh, and take pictures!

If I actually won it I absolutely WILL.

IF I didn't, oh well I'll just binge Bridgerton (and I'll look like an idiot with extremely basic Spanish skills, which I totally am)

OMG @kipari a tiara?! That is amazing, I would wear that anywhere and everywhere. If you did win we will require no less than a million pictures

 

[Calliecake]

Fingers crossed @kipari!!! I can’t wait to see pictures.

Going to be very cold. This is definitely not our normal winter temperatures. Most years are very mild.

I received an invoice for my tiara!!!

To keep things in perspective: it's a very very very very modest and low antique bandeau with very very small oec and rose cuts and synthetic sapphires. Now I have to figure out secure international shipping and then wait until after their holiday break and THEN I'll hopefully be posting pics!!!!! Unfortunately I didn't understand that I wouldn't be able to see the pics on their anymore after the auction... Here's a blown up , horrible, pixel-y screen shot

To show how far I've fallen off the bling train, the delivery I'm looking forward to most next week is a heated hummingbird feeder.

HI:

It is quite clear to me I don't understand doughnuts. At all. Except the ones my Mother made from scratch once a year (yeast dough, etc).

Then again, my DH just said he has no idea where dirty dishes come from. Each to their own.

cheers--Sharon

Am I the only one who didn’t know that you could return Amazon purchases to Kohls, Whole Foods or other various brick and mortar stores? Doh!

 

[ItsMainelyYou]

@Slick1 Well, I didn't know that either, so that makes two of us. Damn you, Amazon!!1!

 

[MamaBee]

You can also return them to ups without boxing them up. I just bring the item to ups..They package it and give you a receipt..Done!

 

[Slickk]

@MamaBee I did not know that!! That’s a game changer as I hated the return process of yesteryear.

Happy New Year @MamaBee

Wishing for everyone a good start to 2022.

I can't think of where this may go, but this


is now this


5 days of cutting and marking (and resting)
5 days of sewing. There were a few of those where I was still sewing at 4am (I'm apparently a glutton for punishment).
39 pieces of fabric and untold miles of thread
But its done.
