SPC (what i wear...week three)


i don't wear a lot of jewelry...
but what i do wear
i tend to wear
constantly.

my engagement ring
is the simplest, smallest ring
we could find,
my choice.
my band, just a band...
i wear one other ring
which was given to my mom
by my dad...
that's it and that's all.

i never take them off
and i twist them all the time
out of habit.

i wear one necklace...
it was a hemp one but i wore it til it fell apart
then i switched for one with a wooden fish on it
but recently
switched to the magnetic
ugly-but-if-it-will-give-me-relief-
from-headaches-i-don't-care-
(even-if-it-is-only-in-my-head)
necklace...
and i fidget with the heart on it
constantly.

he gave me magnetic earrings, too but
i think i will pass on that.
heh.


edited to add...go here for more self portraits!

wow.


it is day nineteen of nablopomo
and today, it is kicking my butt...

we bought the new tv
as mentioned in previous post...
and it didn't work...
but we didn't know that until
about two hours into tearing the living room apart
because the new tv would look so much better
in the other corner
which meant the hutch had to move,
which meant the old tv/game cube area
had to be moved
which meant i had to clean out the closet under the stairs
which meant that i
spent
my whole
day off
rearranging...

it is 8:40 pm.
and i'm ready for bed.

sunday...day 18

i'm tired and
the house is messy
and the trunk is full of christmas presents...
the laundry is not done
and there is school tomorrow
and eight sooooo needs a bath...
dishes in the sink,
hole in my sock,
pajama pants ripped in two places.
happy kids eating candy on the couch,
floor not swept,
warm house,
happy husband with a 42" inch tv to set up...

give and take.
