Day 1 of my jewelry challenge...

Before the alarm clock went off this morning, I was already half-awake thinking about what jewelry to wear.  This is not my normal procedure...I usually get dressed and then choose my jewelry.  My routine is going to have to change as I go along through this challenge because I'll have to pick the jewlery and then the clothes to wear with it. 

Tonight, I was IM'ing my friend John and telling him about my day and this new challenge.  His take on it?  My blog should be a metaphor for the "Jewelry Box of Life".  I like his idea...he's a pretty smart guy!  Must be one of the many reasons I like him!

Here's my jewelry choices for today:  gold chain bracelet & gold hoop earrings, an old necklace in greens, blacks & gold that was in a "lot" of vintage jewelry I bought on ebay several years ago, and a pin that was my mother's.  I'm sure she bought it in the 60's when she was first teaching school.
