This month's birthstone is Peridot, a pretty gemstone that comes in fresh lime green, olive or bottle green and can look anything from subtle to dramatic. Although I prefer it with silver it looks great with gold too! Enjoy :)

Der Peridot ist der Geburtsstein für diesen Monat und erinnert mit seinen frischen Grüntönen an eine Sommerwiese. Die Töne reichen von leuchtend Limettengrün bis gedecktem Flaschengrün. Ich wünsche euch allen einen guten Start in die neue Woche!
Some of my regular readers may have noticed that I haven't been blogging much lately. I had so many fun projects planned for this year, but unfortunately my persisting health issues have thwarted them all. I felt nauseous and dizzy on my birthday last week, so unfortunately I had to cancel dinner. Of course, in the face of what's happening around the world my problems seem somewhat insignificant, although I do believe the current collective negativity is having a detrimental effect on my recovery, because I am so susceptible to lower energies! I have been diligently cleansing my chakras and have delved deeper into healing with crystal energy (more on that in a future post!) and I try to eat as nutritiously as possible to counteract the negative side effects of the meds. Please bear with me - hopefully I will be back to my regular blogging routine soon. After all my blog is my happy place. I love blogging :)

The birthstone doll reminds me of the birthday dolls my inlaws gave all their grandaughters each year for their birthdays. They were numbered to match their age and each year the dolls were a little larger.
ReplyDeleteHappy belated birthday. Sorry you had to cancel your dinner plans. I hope you're feeling better soon.
Hi Duni,
ReplyDeleteein ganz zauberhaftes Moodboard und ich habe diesen Stein im Laufe meines Lebens ins Herz geschlossen. Ich wünsche Dir, dass die Kraft zurückkommt, was sicher einfacher wird, wenn Merkur ab Anfang September wieder geradeaus läuft.
Viele liebe Grüße, Synnöve
Das ist lieb. Danke :)
DeleteReally pretty choices Duni. I am sending positive vibes your way so you can get better. It is horrible what is going on in our world today and it really affects us too. Unfortunately I still torture myself with the news but usually just stick with just the political mess to know what is going on. We counteract this with the funny people who have television shows that feel the same way we do. They do say laughter is the best medicine although it does not exactly change things. :)
ReplyDeleteYou are so right. I follow some funny Twitter accounts for comic relief :)
DeleteHappy belated birthday, dear friend. Hang tough and try to turn off the news and social media. I find both are a mind meld and not good for the spirit. I hope this finds you feeling a bit better!
ReplyDeleteP.S. Only the really COOL people are born in August! ;)
Deletehehe, thanks Lin!! :)
DeletePeridot is such a lovely hue! I've had to stop looking at FB and rarely check the news because I feel it's all just too much and that limiting my exposure is best for my health and the health of my baby. I really hope that you start to feel better soon!
ReplyDeleteI agree with Lin, peridot is the birthday for the cool people born in August! :) I hope you feel better and are able to create more positive energy around you rather than what's going on in the world today. Unplug, pet some kitties and take care of yourself! Sending purrs and positive thoughts.
ReplyDeleteLiebste Duni,
ReplyDeletedas ist ein wunderschönes Grün!
Hab einen wundervollen Tag!
♥ Allerliebste Grüße,Claudia ♥
Danke auch für Deine liebe Mail , Antwort kommt noch, hänge nach dem Mama -WE ein bischen hinterher ;O)
I'm so sorry you haven't been feeling well Duni. I have my share of health issues and I know how difficult it can be to accomplish things when health problems are flaring. Sending lots of love your way!
ReplyDeleteAppreciate it so much Melissa :)
Delete- and hope you feel better soon too!
Our family has several birthday's in August, but all boys! They are probably not interested in birthstones! Ha ha! But I think they are beautiful!
