Default Todays question Friday 4-04-08

Good morning everyone
Happy Friday !!!!
A friend asked me a strange question the other morning, I was out walking my dogs and she said how do you remember to put your jewelry on so early before you take the dogs out ? She gave me an odd look when I said "put it on lol I don't take it off at night" Then she said "you sleep in it?"
I wanted to say "well unless I stay up all night I would have to say yes" but lol being the nice sweet person I am, I just smiled and though ok lets ask the "experts"
So experts how will you answer

Todays question:

Do you take your jewelry off before going to bed ?

Extra credit how often do you change out the jewelry you wear ?


Today in history:
April 4,1828 - Casparus Van Wooden Patents Chocolate Milk Powder !!!


Word of the day
:

ostentation \os-ten-TAY-shuhn\, noun:
Excessive or pretentious display; boastful showiness.


Today is:

National Walk Around Things Day
and
National Ballroom Dancing Day

Do you take your jewelry off before going to bed ?

Well this one's easy. I don't wear any.

When I worked, I wore a wedding band and a watch. Over time, I stopped wearing the watch because between computers, cell phones, cable boxes and alarm clocks, I always knew the time. My fat fingers took care of my wearing the wedding band, although I'm hopeful to get that back on one of these days (in a few hundred pounds )

By the way, I would think EVERY day would be National Walk Around Things Day, as opposed to National Bump Into Things Instead Day.

I wear a watch, wedding ring and a seperate wedding band. I have one ring on my other hand. I only leave the single wedding band on. I have my ears triple pierced, but only wear studs in the 2nd and 3rd holes. I leave those in. I wear no other jewelry. I'm terrible with necklaces and braclets so I stay clear of those..lol

Well we all know my answer
getting all 3 dogs settled is enough of a project before heading to bed without worrying about taking off my jewelry

I haven't take off my 1 wedding band since hubby put it on 4 years ago I have my engagement ring and its matching band that I do take off when I am doing yard work

I pretty much wear a necklace,earrings and a bracelet all the time
I switched it about 2 months ago lol the time before was when we went to Alaska

lol I guess I am in my "blue" phase sapphire necklace earrings and ring

For me, today is limp around things day! I never take off jewelry before going to bed, but it never fails that my fingers swell at night, waking me. Then I take off my rings and stash them under the mattress. I rarely change which rings & necklace I wear, because I wear the ones most special to me.

Funny you should ask this question today... I always wear my wedding band/engagement ring but have another ring I wear on my right hand that I forgot to take off last night... woke up in the middle of the night because I somehow managed to scratch my chin with that ring. I have a couple of necklaces I wear periodically and wear earrings everyday... nothing too ostentatious... always take them off before bed.
I will be "walking around" some stores today and the gym.

I rarely take off my rings (exceptions: painting, weeding, or when I'm cold and my fingers shrink so that the rings spin).

Earrings I remove every night and it's just part of the morning ritual when getting dressed to choose earrings to match what I'm wearing (even when my attire is grubbies :-)

So, are we being ostentatious with the sapphires Karla with a K? :-) um, I want that necklace you know.

Morning everyone.

I sleep with my necklace, 1 bracelet and earrings. Remove another bracelet and rings every night.

I'm the poster child for National Bump Into Something Day!!!!

Wedding band stays on. Depending on what type of earrings I wear, they come off at night. If I wear my amethyst studs, they stay in. Watches, any other rings, necklaces, all come off. I don't wear that much jewelry. Change quite often. I'm not ostentatious in that respect. I try to walk around things everyday, but have been known to bump into many things even if they have been there forever!

Hubby doesn't really care for dancing, even tho' I love to. Soooooo, no ballroom dancing today.


Good morning, y'all. Have a great Friday!!!
