• Gold Rings And Silver Bracelets Make Momma Happy!

    Gold rings

    I am a jewelry hoarder. I personally have the worst case of ohhhh shiny! I love sparkle, shine, dazzle, and pretty. I love uniqueness, I appreciate fine jewelry. Yes, I need all the pretty things, especially stackable gold rings. If those gold rings accidentally have diamonds in them well then YES, PLEASE! For a lot of women that I know jewelry is programmed into our DNA. I know my family certainly passed down the love of sparkle. Jewelry ALWAYS A HIT! Did you know that the first trace of jewelry was in Iran? (Actually, it was the Mediterranean at the time).  About 3,000 to 400 BC!?!? That’s nuts right??   In The Beginning Initially, most of the jewelry was amulets and seals that had spiritual meanings. Check out The Met Museum and see their collection of amulets and jewelry. This particular one is my favorite. (I know… weird but in a fun way. Right?!) Then Cro-Magnons wore jewelry that included crude necklaces and bracelets made of bone, teeth, and stone stitched to animal sinew.  I’m all about unique fun jewelry but I am thankful THAT fad is gone! Jewelry designs have come a long way. I have 2 jewelry boxes…

  • New Planner Time!! Hello #PurpleTrail

    Day planner

    Well, HECK! As of May 2023, Purple Trail is no longer in business. I did grab this planner, which is working well for me this year. Y’all remember last year when I had the opportunity to review PurpleTrail?  Well, I used it all year, and it is truly my favorite planner to date, so I ordered one for this year too. I love a new planner. I have tried to use electronic calendars, but they just aren’t for me. I want a pretty planner. I want to make notes, I want to add stickers, I want… I want….I want….. As The Husband would say, ‘A bottomless pit of wants and needs’.  Yup, that’s me. PurpleTrail is perfect for me. Why? Because I DESIGNED it for ME! After using my first one from October 2021 till now I found that there were a few things I write down every week, SO WHY NOT have PurpleTrail put it in the planner for me?!?! I’m big on keeping track of my balances for PayPal, Amazon, and occasionally a miscellaneous credit card. I found a spot to write these totals and now it’s second nature…… NOW though its PRE PRINTED in the planner!! I done…
