When we first moved into our new houseNeferti~ wrote: ↑Mon Oct 08, 2018 8:35 pmDitto, Cods. I stopped wearing my watch and rings when I suddenly found my pinkie ring (made from my Mother's rings, several thousand dollars worth) missing .... searched everywhere and "last place I looked" was in the Vita Brits packet ... there it was, fell off when I was getting my breakfast! Just as well I checked or it could have been thrown out in the rubbish!
As far as what day it is ... who cares? It's TODAY, isn't it?
My wife noticed that her diamond was missing from her engagement ring.
There were tears, lots of tears
I said don't worry we can afford a better one now. ( we were not very weak.thy when we married)
Wrong thing to say, more tears.
I backtracked the street, the shops and the gutters around the house
( have you ever used a torch to look in a gutter on the street, I could not believe how many tiny pieces of glass there was)
Anyhoo, didn't find the lump of compressed carbon.
Took her to get another diamond fitted
Worth an absolute fortune to have a diamond sized to a ring
So we went cubic zirconia.
A couple of years later, the eldest was vacuuming the hall carpet when a glint caught her eye.
There it was, caught in the gap between the carpet and the doorstep.
More tears, this time happy tears
Got the ring fixed
But now she rarely wears it, afraid to loose the diamond again.
Sad eh?
