Is Tiffany your girlfriend or your ring?
Uh, my girlfriend. My ring is 1/4 of a carat, and I doubt Tiffany sells them that small.
Funny enough, Tiffany was named after the famous jewelry store (her mother thought she was worth more than priceless jewelry).
LOL!!!
Dude, you have the hand of a teenager. You couldn’t make it look any younger unless you put your ring on Mikey’s hand and photographed that!
Hah! I guess I thought my hand looked old because I found my high school graduation picture and my hands look so…graceful? Slender? I don’t know, but they looked damn young and delicate. Of course, they were 17 year old hands so they should have looked that way.
Just beautiful!! Made me want a manicure. Have fun with your friend and at your reunion!!!
I was just so totally confused. Thought your husband had purchase you a Tiffany ring (you laughed, clapped your hands in glee..) and then you were calling it Tiffany. Got the manicure to show off the ring, etc.
Now, I get it.
Your hand is beautiful. Mine look like I just spend four days wrinkling up in the bathtub.
I love it! Old friend are the best … I love the way you can pick up right where you left off … *sigh*
And have a fabulous time this weekend! We, of course, will anxiously await the low-down …
Well, I just wanted to let you know that I so enjoy your blog. Thank you so much for sharing your gift of writing with me. I thought of you when I saw this:

I LOVE Janet Hill!
Love the Mad Men manicure! Gorgeous! And old friends are so amazing, especially when you get connected with them after a long time. I just reconnected with one of my besties while growing up, we would go over to her house to ride her pony. Who, I just learned yesterday, is still alive (the pony). He’s almost 40. Ridiculous!
I want to hang out in real life with you. Staples, manicures and Spanx? That’s like my dream afternoon.
I’M BEING SERIOUS.
Oh have the best time EVER, you so deserve it. I am coo coo for the red, love it and your hands look perfectly youthful to me.
xo,
Miss B
I agree with Miss B. Your hands are pretty darn youthful looking. What are you talking about, sista?
Have a great time at your reunion. I’m skipping mine, which also happens to be tomorrow but up north.
Girl.. they don’t sell those kinda Spanx around here!! Never seen that edition.. maybe you can mail me some? HA!!
Hope you have an awesome time..and your ‘Tiffany’, she looks like a lot more than a 1/4!!
Nope, just 1/4 carat. It’s the lighting, trust me.
I really like how you wrote this post. Very fun.
LOVE your nails! Red rocks!
I also started out thinking “Tiffany” was a euphemism for your ring
Happy reunion!
