It's funny you mention the hair thing, because I had straight hair until puberty, at which point my hair became a tangled mess of curls! I thought it was the weirdest thing ever, but I have since met two other women whose hair did the same thing. I have had both kinds of hair and I can safely say that straight hair is a DREAM to take care of compared to this hair of mine that threatens to turn into dreadlocks on a daily basis! *ARGH* Everyone's responses in this thread have made me think that maybe I have a distorted view of myself. My husband tells me he likes my hands but all I can see are my crooked fingers and spots. Moonstones really are magical and I love them almost as much as I love emeralds!
Didn't post any photos on PS. I have good images under the daylight, but not so good under the yellow one. The source of the light I used probably wasn't a true yellow, I want to buy a gemologist torch and try to photograph the stone again. It is of Russian origin and definitely needs its certificate from a reputable lab. I hope the Lotus lab can help with certifying its origin but I don't want to mail anything far away at the moment
Meanwhile I have my own projects, moving more slowly than I had planned...
I am happy you have your dear shiny and sparkling things to stare at and entertain yourself. They look gorgeous and harmonious on your beautiful fingers. Hope they help you with keeping your spirits up during this trying time.
I should do that, too, because I love taking photos of my jewelry as a hobby. Definitely don't mail anything far away right now!!! The family trip to Carlsbad sounds like a ton of fun! Do that instead I love any excuse to go to California! It's such a stunning state! Thank you all so much!!!!
I keep meaning to change the photo when I get a better picture of him with jewellery. One day...
Thank you! How sweet of you! These flowers have one of the best form and color I have ever seen! Classic! Pure shade of love and outstanding beauty! Thank you for thinking of me!
I think he enjoys wearing cat-sized crowns, but he pretends that it's a great personal sacrifice.
Hello again! I apologise deeply for the delay in responding; pain levels have been high the last couple of days and I tend to curl up in a ball and attempt to read or watch TV when pain gets bad. I miss walking! I miss moving! I am so thoroughly sick of lying in bed!!!!
Anyway.
Here are a couple of photos with the ring on my hand. For reference, the ring is a size 7. I was in the middle of photographing the ring on my left hand when my husband swooped in like Batman and spirited the ring away to the jeweler, who is testing the stones and metal just to make 100% sure the ring is what it is supposed to be. Again, I don't anticipate any surprises, but I always get jewelry I bought online tested independently. He's had it for more than 24 hours and I am impatient to get my little pretty back!!! (To clarify, he already had a line of projects to complete when this was presented to him, so I don't think he's taking too long or anything at this point. I just want my new friend back home with me
I don't like posting photos of my hands because I am self-conscious about how large they are. People make fun of women who have "man hands" and at 5'11", I definitely qualify. I envy women who have dainty hands!
Thank you all so much for your kind words and general positivity
Love it!
