I want to thank everyone who participated in the "game". It was a wonderful break from what has been a stressful couple of weeks at work. We started our "spring cleaning" (at home) last weekend to be continued for the next few weeks, but my tired old bod can only do so much at a time, so this was an enjoyable break. I hope some of you who weren't around this weekend pick this thread up and continue, so I can check back in and see more pretties.

And big thanks to Autumn in New England who started this thread! This is so much fun; it feels like a party

I'll keep the party going with an old ruby medley! Unfortunately these are showing more pink than red with the lighting and my phone, and I can't catch the "glittering," but here we go!

First up is a pawnshop ballerina that needs a good cleaning:



Next is an eBay ring that I got to replace a broken garnet childhood favorite:



And finally, a family "mystery ring." My mom has no idea where it came from, but my jeweler says it's real diamonds and rubies, so who knows!



Thanks to everyone who wished my little Daisy cat well. She gave me quite a fright this morning, but she's finally agreeing to take her medicine and seems to be doing a bit better
