@Simplyput What great pieces! I love the red Save the Birds pendant. It's adorable.

@Mimmy is correct that it's highly unlikely MJ will be able to repair anything. I suppose it never hurts to ask, though.

I hope I'm not repeating anything @Mimmy and @Kittentoes have already told you. LMK if I missed something. I didn't include the items that look like they have tags.

- The silver ring with the rhinestones is the 'Katie' Boxed Pavé Turnlock Ring. The bow ring is the White Enamel Bow Ring.

- Are the M and the J earrings?

- The brown bird necklace is the Petal to the Metal Frontal Necklace.

- Is the thick gold necklace tied into a bow?

- I don't know about the necklace with the beads, sorry. I want to say it was something with 'marble' in it.

- The pearl necklace is the Pearl Chain Long Bolt Necklace

- I think the watch goes to model MBM7046 https://www.shadestation.co.uk/designer-watches/marc-jacobs/MBM7046

Faith_ann

I am not sure, but i think it is a sweater pin, to be worn similar like this non-MJ sweater pin.

Yes, the thick gold necklace is tied into a bow.

Thank you, too for your time. I greatly appreciate it.

I'm never moving to a place without parking ever again. I figured the worst case scenario would be having to walk half a mile on a nice day.

The worst case scenario was actually roadwork where you can't park on one side of multiple streets. And having it be street sweeping day, so you also can't park on the only side available on some streets until 1pm. And it's pouring. I literally cannot get home.

Because I'm already complaining, my landlord is trying to increase the flat fee utility rate before the lease is over. He can't and it's not my problem, but I know he's not going to renew the lease, or he will but he's going to increase it. Either way I'm 90% sure I'm going to have to move in the spring.

What's it like to like in a place for longer than a year, people who have recently lived in places for longer than a year? Do you, like, start lives and stuff? So weird. So foreign.

Ugh. That parking situation sucks. And your landlord kinda sounds like a douche.

I despise moving. I like my house but not necessarily the town it’s in (the people are rather close-minded and judgmental of “other”). But because of the aforementioned hate of moving that Jim (my husband) and I share...we’ve lived here for ten years and I don’t see us leaving anytime soon. Laziness occasionally has its advantages.

It's hard to find a place to live that you love. I don't like San Diego much, either, but I don't know where else to go. Should have gotten a passport and tried Mexico, probably.

today i made the exciting discovery that there is a drive-thru dunkin donuts in san diego. also, i learned that coolattas are still made but have been rebranded as frozen coffees. potentially life changing. also also, why do west coasters think a plain donut is a glazed donut? a glazed donut is a glazed donut. a plain donut is a(n) (old fashioned) plain donut.

also also also, if anyone else dismissed crazy ex-girlfriend - like i did, because it seemed precious and i'm not a huge fan of musicals - go watch it on netflix. @ElainePG if you're still looking for suggestions.

also also also also, someone tried to break into my house and that's kind of not cool. i feel like i need a real dog now (sorry ella and poodles). or is there a place that will rent you a german shepherd by the hour?

also x5 should i like the waverly as much as i do?

That's terrible about the break-in, faith! What happened? Did you have to call the police? :panic: :panic: :panic:

But Dunkin Donust very nearly (not completely, mind you) compensates. DD saved my life when I was doing my student teaching outside of Boston too many years ago to count. I had to take the T from downtown Boston up to Watertown, and then change to a bus to get to the school. And there was a DD at the bus stop that was open at 6:30 (which was when I needed to be there to catch the bus... and this was in the wintertime, mind you!). I would get a hot chocolate (didn't drink coffee in those days) and two plain donuts, and have it all on the bus on my way to the school. That got me just conscious enough to face a roomful of second-graders... at least until the day that one of them breathed on me, and I came down with mumps. But that wasn't the fault of the plain donuts. Or the hot chocolate.

All of which is to say... quite right. A plain donut is a plain donut. A glazed donut is a glazed donut. Plain is good. Yum. Glazed just make your gloves sticky. Yuck.

@faith_ann Definitely not cool about someone trying to break into your house.

I have been eating a lot of glazed donuts lately. I know the difference between a glazed donut and a plain one; I actually like both kinds.

I like the Waverly. There are a few colors on the Rack website right now.

I have some studying I need to do again. I have been doing everything but this.

Hope everyone is doing well. Have a great weekend!

Stay safe, @faith_ann!

No, not worth bothering over an easily fixed door split. No one actually got in. It happened at night so I’ll just have to remember to leave the motion light on and close the second door (it was the back porch)

Maybe it’s undeserved, but now I’m a little wary of my neighbor. He climbed over the fence a couple weeks ago at like 10pm, only heard him because he didn’t clear it well. Went out, dude’s dressed all in black, not his usual clothes, and says he left something on his roof and it was easier to get from my yard. Sure?

He’s probably harmless but I’m suspicious of people who play awful music loudly.

Ah, yes, DD is the life blood of many in MA. I don’t think I ever skipped a morning iced coffee in ten years. Sadly that tastes awful to me now, so I can only relive the donut memories.

Was it the children who eventually drove you to caffeine?

Thinking of glaze on knit gloves seriously made me cringe. The only acceptable donuts are plain, butternut, and boston cream. It is known.

I don’t know if I can support the eating of glazed donuts or similar sticky foods.

I only like the Waverley in black. I’m not sure of the leather and suede combo in other colors. Only looking, though.

Good luck studying. I hear if you eat pie while you’re studying that you remember everything.

No, it was grad school, six years later. Mornings studying, afternoons in the library, and classes at night. Caffeine mandatory, but at least no mumps!
