you have a lot of rules, but whatever works for you.

my legs hurt something awful.

I've got probably 4 pendants that will go with this chain. All silver. Me and gold don't go to well together.

I'd love to have a strand per pendant, but I know me. Not happening.

A lot of the others do best with ribbon (large mother of pearl , striated amber and a large antique locket) so maybe that is tomorrow. Need to fetch up a ribbon with a good fastener for them (some already have ribbons, but they are getting worn.) Then there is the sterling silver serving spoon set with garnet. Not sure what to do with that one. Ribbon is too too, a chain almost seems too little.

Still looking for small secondary earrings. I've had these teeny blue and silver stoned hoops in my ears for nearly a decade (literally, I haven't removed them), mainly because I've not seen anything their size since. But I need replacements. The blue beads are glass something and have lost about half their color. And I'm tired of blue.

It's not a rule--it just takes too long to change pendants, and too many opportunities to lose them. It's cheaper and faster this way.

I WANT MY PIZZA.

I understand ita, in this. (though mine are all dangling from the same bit of ironwork that I think was originally meant as a towel rack.) At the same time, I know I'll not buy enough chains. And thus, wear my pendants less often.

Will a warm bath help? fm acting up?

Buying that many chains for me is no way cheaper and I don't mind the time. I do jewelry each morning at the same time and place I do make-up.

fm is acting up, yes. Also a switch in type of meds might be causing problems (fast acting vs. slow release).

You probably don't lose pendants, msbelle. I need my compensatory plans where I can get them.

And lo! I cannot make the 7:45 viewing of the movie. No one's getting tipped on this one.

nah, I don't lose jewelry much cause I only take it off in two places now. Not always been that way, but I've gotten better at it.

Course, I don't workout, so that eliminates a lot of jewelry taking off. Also, the cats necessitate rules about where shiny things go.

Poor ita. I hope your pizza is there.

I had a really really good day, and tomorrow I get to see Juliana and play in SF, so it should be good too. Yay.

Oof, hope it settles out, msbelle, and you feel better.

msbelle is, I suspect, much more conscious of her accessories than we are, ita. I don't know enogh about you (except you are more careful of your wardrobe than I... so maybe not. You do mention accessories more than I do.)

At least me? They go on at 7:45 or whenever and I forget until I have to take them off. And this particular non-morning-person, well... it's just autopilot. I'd look fancier if I got up later in the day, really.

you have a lot of rules, but whatever works for you.

Ha ha!

I should really start wearing jewelry again. I had a good phase last year, where I was even wearing necklaces (first time ever!), but now I'm off even earrings. Eh.
