Better than finding a Wishlist Cel
last modified: Saturday, September 23, 2006 (8:49:07 PM)
Around 6 months ago I lost my bracelet, a bracelet that held a lot of sentimental value. It was the only piece of jewlery I wore all the time. I don't wear my wedding rings or anniversary earrings as much as I wore that simple silver bracelet.Since the day my husband put it on my wrist 11 years ago, I never took it off. It would get snagged in my hair, it would catch on sweaters and scarves but I loved it. I wore it so much I would notice instantly if it came off, which it did often, but I always found it usually in my pocket on directly on the floor in front of me. In March it came off and as hard as I looked I couldn't find it. I was sick. For weeks I kept feeling my wrist looking for it.

Today my aunt was over for her weekly visit. She decided to take in and clean the dining room/office and help me organize my desk and all the clutter around it. She picked up a box that held dvd-r media and some cases that I use to ship home movies to the Folks in Ireland, gave it a shake and what falls out? My beloved bracelet! Needless to say the rest of this day could have consisted of speeding tickets, broken dishes and other such crap I would have greeted it all with the biggest shit-eating grin ever. I am on cloud 9, I'm over the moon, I'm .... well you get the idea, I am really really happy. :D

Very glad you found it, it''s really depressing when something that important goes missing ^^. Now duck tape that sucker to your wrist XD, okay so duck tape can''t solve every problem...

Oooo! Congratulations! I''m so happy for you!!

I recently lost a pen that my husband made for me about a year ago.
I have always fended off people wanting that pen from me, and kept a close eye on it always.
Well, I lost it on our last flight on the trip back stateside here.
I was so toasty after days of flying forever, that I didn''t notice it was gone until the next day. T_T
I know I''ll never get it back, so believe me when I say I am incredibly happy for you because I know that feeling of loss. ^_^

Congrats! That''s so great that you were able to get it back! I know how it is when you''re not wearing a piece of jewelry you always do . . . you feel naked. But something like that is even more important than any silly trinket I''ve ever worn, so it must feel great to have it up against your skin again. ^_^

I completely understand how you feel. I have a ring like that. I took it off for a bath, then could not find it for three months afterwards. I tore up the entire house looking for it. I later found it in our change cup where I then remembered that I had placed it there so I could easlily find it, and it wouldn''t get lost. So congrats on finding your braclet, and may you NEVER lose it again. ^_^

Oh happy endings always get me *sniffle*!! I am glad you found it, really really glad. I know about how a piece can be more important than your wedding ring. My anniversary ring replaced my wedding ring years ago, I do not know what I would do if I ever lost it. Congrats again :D
