Ring Tip of the Day

By -
Lately, we've had quite the rash of sparkly new diamond rings. Problem is, over time the sparkle begins to fade. An easy way to bring it back is simply to walk into any local jewelry store. They'll shine it right up for you fast and for free!
Bonus tip: If your ring happens to be white gold, you need to get it touched up approximately every 6 months to keep it from yellowing. The cost of this is around $30, so if you're being charged more, then you're paying too much, and if you're paying less, let us know!

A great way to pay less is FREE! Grab a spare toothbrush just for this purpose(or use your own or spouse's when he is not looking) and just use toothpaste. I "brush" my rings regularly and my white gold wedding band and platnium diamond sparkle away. As a side note of things not to "borrow" from husband...it is a good idea NOT to use his electric razor to give your puppy a hair cut(especially if this involves the dog's hind end)...he will not be too happy, although your dog will inherit her own hair clippers. my newlywedded vet tech girlfriend did this and her husband just about gagged when he discovered dog hair on his clippers.

I imagine there are very few things of your husband's that you can use on your dog. Toothbrush is definitely not one of them either. Now that I really sit down to think about it, I bet there is nothing you can use on your dog and husband.

Post-Run Tip of the Day

By Stephanie -
This is a tip for those who might run where giant swarms of gnats sometimes loiter by the side of the road. This tip stems from a run on the Mayan Riviera in Mexico, but I've encountered swarms of gnats in Virginia and Kentucky as well. After your run, always stop and look in a mirror before going into public. Otherwise, you might actually complete a transaction at the resort store and greet five people before realizing you have up to 15 gnats stuck to your face and neck.
