Well here we are with another edition of Linda’s #JusJoJan24 . Today’s word was provided by Dar. You should visit both of these fine blogs if you haven’t already!

Have any of you out there ever owned one of these?

Ahhhh… yes, the ever present accessory of the late 70’s and the all knowing indicator of your mood.

I had several during my late high school years and took its expertise to heart, gauging how happy or sad I might be, or how ‘affected’ by a love interest. These lovely kaleidoscope jewelry treasures were around quite awhile before fading into the background, usurped by Pandora wonders and diamond studded tennis bracelets. I was more than thrilled when they made a comeback, sometime in the early 2000’s. They even had a band version, which was lovely to wear but seemed lacking in capability. But, then came the inevitable rhetoric and need to scientifically explain away the magic and mystery of my wonder ring. Of really everything, and the trend is only getting worse. Temperature in the room, body temperatures and other reasonable explanations took the place of the mystical truths I had clung to in my adolescent years.
Still… I think I’d like to wear one again. After all, we can’t really count on the weatherman anymore, can we?
Here’s a bit of something to brighten a mood!

Happy Monday all!
