So remember about a month ago when I was crying the blues about losing my beautiful diamond ring?

What’s that on my hand? Is it a new one? NO! It’s the same one - I found it this afternoon, randomly of course, but it couldn’t have come at a better time. I was still holding out hope that I would find it in the process of moving, but I was getting a bag out of the cupboards and I saw it and it didn’t register at first that it was the ring, but then it clicked, and I began screaming, “OHMYGOSH MY RING!” Which doesn’t sound too weird, except I was on the phone with Tim, mid-sentence on something else, so I’m sure he had to pull the receiver away from his ear a bit. I still can’t believe it. And I even had a dream about a week ago that I found it and I woke up with that just-woke-up elation, where whatever happened in the dream you really think happened, only to realize CRAP it was a dream. And as the day wore on I went into a tailspin of stress, so this was just the best thing to happen today.

I’m so glad you found it! I was just telling Timothy the other day I had lost one of my sapphire earings when we traveled to Grand Rapids. On Sunday I was doing laundry and there it was…at the bottom of the laundry basked. YEAH for both of us!
