The birth flower is Holly or Narcissus. There are 2 modern birthstones: Zircon (wealth, wisdom and honor) and Tanzanite (understanding and contentment) which became an official birthstone on October 30, 2002 when the American Gem Trade Association (AGTA) revised the birthstone list in the first revision since 1912. The traditional birthstone is Turquoise (new possibilities and happiness).
Home Improvements and Which Ones to Do
Whether you plan to sell in the near future, or just want to improve the value of your home, here is one low cost improvement you should consider.
Opportunity Knocks. Still opening the front door with a flimsy standard-issue knob?
