apparently, I wear jewelry now

 I've been interested in adornments.  Things we wear or do to our bodies that really aren't needed but somehow are.  Like a shiny sparkle of metal or colourful fingernails.  

I stopped wearing even a wrist watch when I found out that it could easily get caught on a ram and as the ram weighs almost four times my weight, and we are now both attached to the wrist watch... um... health and safety.

Eventually I found out I could wear a pocket watch and this would easily come unattached from me, if something got attached to it.  

Looking around lately, I wondered what else could I wear.  Brooches.

Here's my starting collection.  It's not much, but I love it.

Those are lovely! I used to wear brooches pretty regularly a long time ago, but then it seemed like I ended up no longer having clothes that were a good match for them. I look forward to being able to wear them again when I finally have a chance to sew the clothes I need and want. There are one or two pieces of clothing in particular that I have in mind — those will be perfect backgrounds for the two beautiful brooches I have that belonged to my grandmother!
