Shopping Online

Before I even had a website I was a devoted online shopper. The great sales bargains never outweighed my discomfort at waiting in long lines and exposure to large crowds. If there is anything I can't find online I send my boys out with a specific shopping list. I always felt the reason they called it Black Friday was because of my strong desire to avoid venturing out of my home. So for all the brave souls that go out into the jungle of holiday shopping I wish you short lines and great deals!

Well Behaved Women Rarely Make History

I now work at Terra Firma a jeweler's supply store in Pikesville, MD. The other day a mother and daughter came in to buy some display merchandise. The little girl about 11 was just too well behaved and when my coworker commented on her excellent behavior the girl smiled sheepishly. I then told the little girl to always remember that well behaved women rarely make history. To this she showed a wide bright smile while her mother shot daggers at me. Oh well, it is hard to censor myself at 52 and soon to be 53 YIKES! pictured is sapphire ring by Kelly Kerkes
