so, how is she doing? Ignore this if I'm mistaken.

At the bank the teller asked me whether anyone had ever told me I looked
like Julia Roberts. I burst out laughing because I'm on record as thinking
she is weird looking, and of course, my crazed hippo grin cemented the
resemblance, if any ... it was nice to hear this compliment, though,
because during my morning shower I forgot I was holding my Hero Chiropedic
lava sponge in my hand and scraped myself along the jawline with it. So
considering that I was dressed like a soccer mom and looked like I had
asphalt rash on my face, I enjoyed being told that I looked like a
movie star.
Not bad for a large aquatic mammal, I must say.
Priscilla
Oh, and last night before bed I put Anya's aloe gel on the rash and this
morning it is much better. Thanks Anya! I never would have lemminged this
and had it handy if not for your post.

Ohh Audrey, I have on my emerald shaped citrine ring (gold) with a gold

match. :)
Carol
The studs were from a jewelry store in Pismo Beach, CA that dealt in
all kinds of semi precious stones and designs at reasonable prices. I
also have a faux pair the children bought me and a pair made by
MoonFancy, my Secret Santa. My first citrine studs went by way of the
shower drain and were not recovered. If you find a wholesale jeweler
with loose stones such as those at the metropolitan jewelry marts,
they can make you anything much less than what you will pay retail.

One of my co-workers asked me back then if I liked "Nu Shooz."
I replied, "Well, I buy enough of them."
(This co-worker once did an advertising piece for Castner Knott, a
one-time Southern department store chain that got merged into Dillards
a few years ago. My co-workers and I had a field day with the thing:
the one that I commented about was the "Levis for the Family" blurb.)

I bought the tote but then returned it. If I carry that large a tote
I want it to have pockets, secret compartments, bells and whistles
etc.
