Thursday Things

More like Thursday rambles.  

The MART was a mixed bag -- more good than bad though.  First the prickly part.  It's a production to get into the building -- Fort Knox security, by invitation only.  The jeweler spelled my name wrong by ONE LETTER and they wouldn't let me in.  3 phone calls later, back of the line again, words exchanged, lots of frustration and they gave me a pass in.  Problems with the new parking system too and some general other aggravations.

Now the better.  My ring is being sent out to replace the missing stones.  I tried to modify and/or exchange stud earrings I got for Christmas.  I like them, don't love them and never seem to choose to wear them.  It was a MASSIVE expense to modify (ridiculous really for only a modification) and since I've had them for a year they didn't want to do an exchange (I understand).  Long and short is I got a second pair that was just moderately more expensive than modifying the original pair.  Those earrings need to be sent out to have a part adjusted.  When I have both pairs, I'll show a pictures.  I also got my rings checked and polished.  The new ring was sized in a hurry and the band was rough -- now it's smooth as a baby's bottom.

Something about yesterday (maybe hormones too) was exhausting.  I ended up in bed by 6:30 and asleep by 7 o'clock.  I was drained -- mentally and physically.  It felt like a day that I needed to end.  Long, good night's sleep and I feel better this morning.  I bet it was hormone related.  

I'm grocery shopping today for the winery picnic this weekend and stuff to make a carrot cake from my DIL's birthday.  Rain all day so it's a good day to be inside.

That's all from here.  Have a good day.  Later gators.
