Oh, KJ. Sorry about the upset at the gym. I hate it when I just can’t stop myself from crying when I’m upset….but it happens to all of us.
To continue with your theme of keeping what makes you happy Joan… I summed it up to the lady I sold some jewelry to today, “I’m getting rid of some beautiful things I love but don’t use to make room for beautiful things I love and will use.” I sold my grandmother’s broach I’d been thinking about selling for years. I wear several pieces of jewelry that belonged to my grandmothers. But this broach, though breathtakingly gorgeous and valuable, just wasn’t something I’d wear. So into the jadeite fund the money goes. :). Hopefully my grandmother would be happy that the dishes get used and make us all happy three times per day. Even the boys admire the green glow of the dishes…lol. I’m raising little vintage dish enthusiasts.
Oh, and while inventorying my crystal to get ready to sell it, I came across a cute little casual glass sugar bowl and creamer. I’d been wanting something neutral to use with the jadeite since my other creamer goes with my blue and white. I have no idea where this little creamer and sugar bowl came from. A wedding present I guess….the boxes hadn’t been opened since soon after our wedding.
ETA….so glad to meet another person who doesn’t like Star Wars, KJ! Sometimes I feel like I’m the only one. Saw the original in the theater as a young girl and always wish I could get that hour and a half back. 🙂
