She lusts after red or cherry amber. She has (sigh) vast quantities of amber, and is always looking for more. When I began showing this to our insurance man, asking how to best insure it, he ended up just shaking his head. I guess I will just get a big safe.Three Score and Ten or morehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04323013128311124905noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11687945.post-1146035409559376622006-04-26T03:10:00.000-04:002006-04-26T03:10:00.000-04:00Wear them anywhere you want!

If it makes you feel and look pretty, that's all that matters, right?<BR/><BR/>Sorry to hear about the few pounds, and can feel your pain on that one. I'm relatively short myself (5'5"), and a few extra pounds show no matter what you do. Perhaps if I had some pretty jewelry to distract me.... only kidding, as I don't wear ANY jewelry except a watch. Rings, bangles and necklaces get in the way of my work, and if I took them off, I'd be prone to forgetting where I put them. It's best for a person like me to go without, rather than risk the fact that I'd lose prescious gems. Luckily my watch has the expandable band so I can move it up past my elbow, when I'm scrubbing pots and pans.<BR/><BR/>Love the amber, though, and I'll bet they look great on you!Ellenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05767057478043796740noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11687945.post-1145991589291446282006-04-25T14:59:00.000-04:002006-04-25T14:59:00.000-04:00I love getting the new pretties!

My friend Ozma is much shorter than I am (she's prob about your height) and every pound shows on her, too. It's tough for her. Of course, she probably eats less because she's smaller? You're right, it's nice to get dressed up no matter WHAT. And it can't hurt to have the bf ask why! ;o)<BR/><BR/><B>Michelle,</B> you're right. I miss you guys!

That makes it miserable unless you go out first thing in the morning. But it's manageable here because of AC.

Of course my boyfriend asks me everytime why I am so dressed up. But it makes me feel good.<BR/><BR/>The jewelry looks awesome, i love amber too. i got a big gawdy ring from a garage sale when i was younger and turns out its a big ole peice of amber in that ring. Its neat. <BR/><BR/>And dont worry about that weight gain. YOu'll get on top of it soon enough, when your body is ready. At least you're tall. i am only 4'11. So even 5 pounds is obvious on me.Kristiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11583736569012353198noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11687945.post-1145977739641155202006-04-25T11:08:00.000-04:002006-04-25T11:08:00.000-04:00Baby steps Saur!You must have ESP or something.

We looked up pictures to see what he wants. He said yes to all of them. He then took some colored plastic and cut it up and pasted a mosaic pattern onto a cardboard box.
