Trinkets

ring, bitsandtreats

Now that I have so much time on my hands, I’ve been slowly reducing my stuff. I’ve accumulated a lot of stuff over the years and it’s time that I simplify my life. I started doing this with my wardrobe. I found out that I have over 200 pieces of clothing and that’s just for going out. The thing is, even with all those clothes, there are days when I feel I don’t have anything to wear. I’ve managed to bring down the number to a little over 100 but I still want to reduce it further, down to just 100. That process would have to wait when I get better and I can go shopping again. Yes, more clothes to replace the ones that I will give away and to add more to the categories that are lacking. For example, I have about 7 shorts and I want that number to go up to 10 but I also discovered that I need to give away 4 shorts because they are already faded. My comfortable number is 10 for each clothing. I don’t know if I will have the strength to bring that down to 7 or 5. = )

Anyway, I thought I’d share with you my ring collection. I had more, plenty more a few months back and I managed to scale it down to the one you see above. I’m so proud of myself for achieving this.

It’s been a while since I last added to my collection. When I do, I’ll be sure to take one out. One in, one out. That’s my new rule for clothes and accessories shopping.

*Most of the rings are from Hyphen

Soul Notes: For Your Journal Tonight

Come sit with me for a while. I have my journal open, and tonight I’ve been thinking about something I suspect I do more often than I realize. I turn healing into another thing I need to accomplish. I want to know when I’ll be over something. When I’ll stop thinking about it. When something that hurt will finally stop hurting. When I’ll feel like myself again. And somewhere along the way, healing quietly becomes another deadline. Another invisible date on a calendar. Another thing I can somehow be late for. But maybe healing doesn’t work particularly well under project management. Maybe there are things I will understand quickly and things I’ll have to revisit again and again. Maybe I’ll feel completely fine one day and unexpectedly tender the next. That doesn’t mean I’ve gone backwards. It means I’m still moving through it. I remember one day, many years ago, when I had fibromyalgia. I lived in constant pain. I just couldn’t get a good day. And then one day, in the office...

Used to the Last Drop: The Ones I’d Already Told You About

  There’s something particularly satisfying about finishing a product you’ve already written about. Not testing it. Not forming first impressions. Not wondering whether I’ll still like it three weeks from now. Finished. My Molang Honey sheet masks and this body scrub both made it all the way to the end. (Finally for the Molang sheet masks, right?) I’ve reviewed both before, so I won’t review them all over again here. But perhaps using something until there is nothing left to use is its own kind of review. Beauty products come through my bathroom rather frequently. Some are lovely for a week. Some get pushed to the back of a shelf. Some simply stop working for me. And then there are the ones that quietly disappear because I kept reaching for them. Maybe an empty container is the shortest review of all. I liked it enough to finish it. If you want to read my thought about these products, just type them on my search bar. —- With elegance and quiet fire, Lady E Founder, Glow by Lady E...

Part 1: I Finally Had Enough of My Dry Feet and Did Something About It

  I have been annoyed with my feet for months. Not because there was anything particularly wrong with them. They were just dry . Really dry. And you know I have a problem with dryness (hello skin, lips). And somehow, despite noticing this constantly, I kept doing absolutely nothing about it. The moment that gets me every time is when I’m waiting for my son at piano class. I’ll sit down, cross my legs, look down at my slip-ons or sandals and there they are. My dry, flaky feet. Then I become painfully aware that there are other people sitting beside me who can probably see them too. 😂 Every time, I think, I really need to do something about this. And then piano class ends, life resumes, and apparently my feet are no longer part of my jurisdiction. Eventually, I had enough. I found this Mond’Sub Chamomile Foot Peeling Spray at KKV and decided that my poor neglected feet were finally getting some attention. The process wasn’t glamorous. There was peeling skin involved. There were bits...
