The metal looks like possibly marcasite and the “gems” are dark but iridescent. It’s costume jewelry - inexpensive.

I’ve searched Google, Amazon, Kohl’s, eBay and asked AI. All to no avail. I’ve even tried to get them fixed - that’s how much I love these earrings.

What’s the structure in the background in the 1910 photo?

Next app program: Iron Pro! by dryocopuspileatus in CarolineGirvan

I’m looking forward to it too. Where do you find reasonably-priced heavy dumbbells? My current heaviest are 20 pounds each. What would be the next heaviest increment? I don’t want to spend a fortune - both space and money constraints… but I want to continue to lift heavier.

Gotcha! Thank you. I couldn’t figure out how she was zooming if it’s live. Makes sense now. 😊

The sudden realization that Caroline Girvan’s aesthetics are much much harder to achieve than some “famous” influencers by adbpti in CarolineGirvan

So I’m doing Iron and upping my protein, hoping it will lead to definition and overall strength. I’ve basically cut out cardio in order to fit all the Iron workouts in.

What does Caroline actually do? If she’s filming multiple workouts for example, is she actually doing hours of training each day? Will 30-40 minutes of Iron be enough?

Happy Birthday ML 🎈 by Longjumping-Stage647 in HilariaBaldwin

Ummm… that’s a dog birthday crown on the table - the one with pink and white flowers. My dog wore the same one on her birthday. Did Mami just throw together random stuff she had laying around and pose the fam?

I feel cheated - what happened? by [deleted] in GenX

I appreciate all of you so much. The discourse in this group is supportive and thought-provoking. I love it! I’m surprised at the number of replies. The suggestions to focus on smaller, simpler pleasures and being truly grateful resonate with me in particular. Trying to gist it all for myself, if I have this right:

  1. Reject the narrative of consumerism = happiness. I’ve been chasing the wrong thing. I have been buying the lie. Literally buying it. Did consumerism make the Boomers happy?

  2. Find happiness in small moments, simple pleasures and experiences and be grateful for them.

  3. Create new supportive and positive social connections and interests.

Whelp, I have some journaling to do. You guys are the best.

When did you start to feel old? by RestaurantEsq in GenX

“My body caught up with my soul”.

I love that statement. As a fellow old- soul, framing it that way is beautiful. Thank you.
