Funny you should ask about my collections. As gold started to go up in price I gravitated to sterling silver. I didn’t start following Heidi Daus until a few years ago. When she started with HSN I found her jewelry to be too ostentatious for me, but her artistry intrigued me. My mom would have loved her jewelry. Mom loved anything big and bright. But she passed before Heidi was on HSN. The sterling and others I have purchased over the years through HSN and other web sites. Today I am scaling back and only purchase when the price is right or it’s something I really like and would cry if it would sell out. As for the Prestige boxes. I purchased one to try in the beginning. A year later I needed a sterling bracelet and when I reached into the box I was amazed that all my pieces were looking brand new. I really think you will enjoy these boxes and if you are like me, you will purchase another large one. I will be using this one for the costume jewelry. I still have pieces from my mom that I like to wear from time to time.

My neighbor who is next door is a RN and she checks on me two or three times a week. Nice person. I do not lose complete consciousness when I pass out. This time I was at the computer and was able to get to the bed and recline until it past. The phone is next to me at the computer and when I was able, contacted my physician. Right away he said it was food poisoning and if it continued he would meet me at the ER.. Today I am OK as if nothing happened. From what I heard, he reported everything to the FDA . It could also be a sulfite thing. I found something that could be a culprit in the stuffing I purchased which wasn’t Pepperidge. I wanted to try something organic and when I checked online there were no sulfites in the ingredients. Consequently when I happened to see this at a warehouse I reached for it without looking at the label. This one, no way, was organic, even though it said so on the package. Never assume. Another lesson learned, the hard way.

I am surprised! We were winning 4-1 and blew that and seem to lose every overtime until tonight. Yay for a change!👍

Oodie, I think Sheba means something like a med-alert. What a great idea Sheba!
Make sure to keep your cell phone near you as well please.
Sorry to hear your husband is in the hospital and I Hope you feel better soon.

Thanks for your post about the Colleen Lopez Prestige Boxes. You must have a lot of them if you started purchasing them way back when they 1st were sold. The Turquoise color looked so pretty and suited well to FL. The 3-Layer box in Ivory arrived and I love it! I am waiting for the 6 slot watch/bracelet box to arrive in the matching Ivory. Usually I am a color person but for some reason the Ivory color appealed to me. I love the light interior. It’s easier to see everything.
You must have an awesome collection of jewelry. It is a mix of collections or mainly Heidi Daus?
Take care, I think we all worry about you doing too much.

The Bangles Lyrics
“Manic Monday”

Six o’clock already
I was just in the middle of a dream
I was kissin’ Valentino
By a crystal blue Italian stream
But I can’t be late
‘Cause then I guess I just won’t get paid
These are the days
When you wish your bed was already made

It’s just another manic Monday
I wish it was Sunday
‘Cause that’s my fun day
My “I don’t have to run” day
It’s just another manic Monday

Have to catch an early train
Got to be to work by nine
And if I had an airplane
I still couldn’t make it on time
‘Cause it takes me so long just to figure out
What I’m gonna wear
Blame it on the train
But the boss is already there

It’s just another manic Monday
Wish it was Sunday
‘Cause that’s my fun day
My “I don’t have to run” day
It’s just another manic Monday

All of my nights
Why did my lover have to pick last night
To get down?
(Last night, last night)
Doesn’t it matter
That I have to feed the both of us
Employment’s down
He tells me in his bedroom voice
“C’mon honey, let’s go make some noise”
Time it goes so fast
(When you’re having fun)

It’s just another manic Monday
I wish it was Sunday
‘Cause that’s my fun day
“I don’t have to run” day

It’s just another manic Monday
I wish it was Sunday
‘Cause that’s my fun day
It’s just a manic Monday

@shoelady60,

Good evening I am glad you are home nice and warm. Hey looks like your Hockey Team
is tied at the moment. 🎈

Relax my friend you are in my prayers and thank you for thinking of my family.

Sheba, yes, that is true. Those were the (old’n) days when some women in my work place would state that all women needed to have their nails manicured if they wanted to be successful. I say if you want to work to give someone else all your hard earned go for it 🙂 As it turns out, these were not the most successful women. Gotta follow your instincts about people and so forth.
You keep in excellent shape!
How was your lunch? Did you get the salad pictured? It looks good.

@oodiebom,

Good Evening you need a break this is too much. Please tell me you have one of those
monitors that if something happens you just push a button. I say that because you are
alone until hubs comes home.

Take it easy one step at a time. I am glad hubby is doing better. I wish he could leave the
hospital and go straight home.

Please get plenty of rest and fluids. 😘💕

Peace Out Peeps enjoy your evening and stay warm. 😎

Hubs is still in the hospital. He is on antibiotics and I surmise he will remain until that is over with and everything is OK. . He is enjoying the hospital food even though it is pureed. Unfortunately, I did not see him yesterday. Something I ate gave me “Montezuma’s Revenge” and also made me pass out. I immediately phoned my physician and said it sounded like food poisoning. This is the second time in less than a month. I gave him the info on the food and where it was purchased. I am OK so far today and about to get dressed to see hubby. The cafeteria at the hospital has some great takeout’s, and the best part is that they have a menu you can choose from. I will be with hubby for sometime today.

I did order the new microwave. I did it online and thought it would be easier. Not so. Hubby has a Lowe’s card and when I went to use it, it said the number was incorrect. I used the chat section and they suggested I call the bank. For two hours I was on the phone and at the end there was nothing they could do to help. I spoke with several reps and the outcome was is that my hubby would have to go to Lowe’s in person. Funny, my credit cards all arrive with his and my name. Ditto for him as well. But this one, only in his. And, the spouse cannot use it unless he is with me in person. The end result was that I was able to get the extra percentage off through Lowes. What a mess. And no, they will not issue you a card since hubby has one. Go figure.

It is still cool in Florida. Last night’s temps were in the 40s. As I type it is 50. We do have the sun and that is good. I think it may be 10 degrees cooler where zango is.

Hi and good afternoon, though iti’s still am where you are. I was wondering if you received your Prestige jewelry box. Mine arrived a few days ago in the turquoise. I do enjoy these boxes and I think I started purchasing when Colleen first showed them. Back then she was able to get the real large ones for bracelets. There were two huge drawers and the one at the top. I also purchased several months ago the three smaller ones. These all stack nicely on a bureau or in a closet. Best of all my sterling is just as beautiful as the day they were purchased. I hope you enjoy yours as much as I do.

@sheba2011

Good afternoon from the chilly ‘burgh. It is sunny🌞but in the 30s and we are supposed to get some snow tomorrow night into Thursday.❄ ‘Tis the season.

I am doing okay, thanks for the prayers and I’m sending them back for you and your family.🙏

Hubs going to the hockey game tonight, glad I’m staying home where it’s warm.😊🔥 They are playing the Stanley Cup champs so my expectations are low. Hope I’m surprised.🤣

Enjoy your lunch, stay warm, I’m thinking Poppy needs an extra treat for braving the cold.🐾 Hugs and love.🤗💖
