today I am something shiny

Ok- most days I'm something shiny. Or I used to be. I like the shiny. These days I don't get to wear shiny stuff that often. It's not practical with a baby and  toddler. I fear scratching their delicate skin during a diaper change or losing an earlobe to the baby grip and tug. Further, I don't go many places any more at his point in my life. People look at me as if I am a little daft if I glam it up for grocery shopping.

This is an ode to my more or less glamourous past.
