Okay so the bidding wars for the good jewelry are done. My dad took over and went instead of me. I took a nap that I needed.I got some wee diamonds in earrings that are like my other ones. I got a miner's cut 3/4 carat diamond that dad thinks I should add to my ring. WHERE??? GOOD GOD!! I think I will have it put in a platnum setting for my right hand. I got some weird shit - anyone else ever heard of people carving monkeys or squirrels out of peach pits? Apparently my great grandfather made a ton of these. Talk about odd. I have three. I got a gorgeous little pin that was hand painted by my great great great auntie. It is really pretty. I also got an ivory initial ring. It can either be a W for west or an m for.....Manic depressive I guess. I think it was my dad's. Two real silver napkin rings and a couple pearl - one uncultured that looks funky. Dad also got my the Mother's ring that mom and dad got her. He wants me to keep that one. I have a metric ton of extra settings from my mom. BLAH!!! Alice and Lily each had a ton of service pins from Carnation and John Deere - I got one of each there. Also got a cute little pin that goes along with my gun - a Winchester. Who knows what I am going to do with all this? It is crazy. I am so thankful that he went instead of me!!
