My charm bracelet arrived today in the mail. Well, actually it was delivered by the UPS guy along with the TV Ray had ordered for the gym room. I was ecstatic. We were told they would be delivered straight from the manufacturer, so I didn’t expect them to even mail out until the 29th. When the door bell rang I thought it was the rug. Then I saw the Sharp TV box and then a smaller brown box. Ray was already on the phone so I begged him to let me open the smaller box. When I found out it was my bracelet I told him to tell me Happy Birthday or something so I feel like it’s a celebration, he said “Happy I Love You Day.” I love my I Love You Day present!
As I type, I’m clanking all over the desk, and trying to be careful not to scratch my new toy. I only have three charms so far, and I found pictures of what they look like. They are very cute. I will have to buy more charms later but atleast I got a good start. There was a bracelet I saw already with charms but this way I get to pick out which charms I want to have on. It will probably end up costing me more, but it will also have more sentimental meaning for me in the long run.
Ray’s mirror for the gym was also delivered today. I waited for it this morning since Ray had to be at work. And then JCPenney’s called and said the dining room we ordered is already waiting for pick up at the store. Ray is actually picking it up right now and we’ll probably spend the night putting it together. So now all we’re waiting on is the rug. And the whole upstairs will be set and the gym room as well. I’m very excited to be able to finally take pictures and post them.
We are still looking for plants and decorative accessories but atleast we have the big things out of the way. Well, atleast for upstairs. Ray is wanting to get a pool table for downstairs, and a hot tub by the time the privancy fence is put up. Of course, I don’t necessarily encourage either but it’s his money and his house so his decision. I’m just here to beautify the place. Give advice on colors, decorations, and placement. And of course, I sign for the delivery guys and hand over the check to the vendors. I’m a glorified personal assistant, but I do have perks.
your charm bracelet sounds wonderful and it really sounds like Ray is dropping some dough on his house. I am sure that you will make sure that it turns out great in the end!! Good luck decorating!!

Those charms are so cute! Are those little diamonds on there?

No, those aren’t real diamonds, I think it would have taken a lot more convincing for Ray if they were, the ones with real diamonds that I’ve seen are already $150 – $300 per charm. We can dream though, huh?

Is it real gold then? They look great.

Hey Anita! Yes they are. It’s a kind of requirement because I’m very lazy about taking jewelry off. So should I do some impromptu dish washing I need to make sure that getting them wet is okay and won’t fade them.
BTW, stranger, if you’re interested in jewelries I can post my Bulova watch. My sis says she’s found the same or almost same for cheap at Overstock.com.
