A GIFT FOR THE DAY I WAS BORN

Note: Photo does not have the best detail for the necklace. Amelia is also tired, hence, the sour face.

I was born today about 30 years ago, circa 1970's. No one needs exact details, right?! Just know that I'm a typical childish Aries. So, I bought myself a gift this past weekend while I was in LA. I'd been yearning for this peacock necklace for a while now. Before actually taking the plunge and purchasing it, I'd admire it on various online boutiques. I honestly wasn't going to buy it because I couldn't handle the feeling of "buyer's remorse" and/or knowing the money spent on a fashion accessory would have purchased a month's worth of diapers and food for Amelia. Then the best justification for purchasing the necklace dawned on me—Amelia would be the proud owner of this (what would later be vintage) piece of jewelry. SOLD.
