Found out today where to find pandora charms online that are so popular with several people who I know that I could be buying some for as Christmas gifts. Yes I said the dreaded C word, Christmas! I can’t believe that the stores are putting out their Christmas stuff and that the TV is spewing out commercials about Christmas as well. I could have sworn it was still officially summer, or did I miss something?

Just spent the last couple of hours sorting a box of jewelry that I just found in a box way in the back of my coat closet and hadn’t even thought of in many years. Most of it was necklaces which I haven’t really felt like wearing since I have been wearing the same necklace day in and day out for the last 6 1/2 years that has my father’s favorite ring on it. He gave this particular ring to me while he was in the hospital just a few short weeks before he passed away from bone cancer. Those were hard times on us all, something that none of us will ever get over and something that is still hard for us to talk about.

I have a lot of necklaces that I just threw into a box and after spending all of that time untangling them, repairing them, cleaning them and enjoying the memories that were attached with each and every one of the, I’m just not sure what to do with them. I still don’t feel right taking off my necklace and I’ve noticed that a lot of people are wearing more than one necklace at a time, but I don’t think I look right with a lot of bling decorated all over my body.

For now I am just storing them away once again, but in an orderly fashion and I won’t be putting them somewhere buried deep so that I will never find them again when I want to. The only jewelry I really enjoy buying and wearing are ear rings, but they have to be of the long variety or else you will never see them with all of my long hair, the same long hair that I promised my father that I would never cut. Good thing I look good with long hair and that I love and cherish my necklace with my father’s ring on it that I can enjoy each and every day from here on.
