Being sick forever was suddenly totally worth it this afternoon! We all know that my husband�s parents spoil me rotten and often send unexpected �prizes� to the house for me - today was one of those days! Last week when I was sick they felt bad that I felt bad so they decided to send me a get well gift even though I�d probably be well by the time it got here. Want to know what I got today? My lovely in-laws sent me a new ring! What is this new ring, you ask? I�ll tell you! It�s 10 (count �em 10!) carats of cushion cut London Blue Topaz prong set in white gold in a raised basket mounting accented by bow designs on each shoulder. Did I mention that it�s lovely? I have to be honest and admit that I was taken aback by the size of this thing when I first saw it. It�s probably not something I would have ever selected for myself but once I put it on I fell in love. It�s different, unique, unusual, and certainly eye-catching. It�s fun pieces like this that allow me to step outside of my comfort zone and keep me from going back into the style rut that I lived in all throughout my college years. Hooray for new jewelry! Now, if we could just convince the husband to shop in jewelry stores... |
