After about a 6-7 month hiatus from Pricescope, I recently returned this past week out of the "blue" and it must be a sign because I just been blessed with some good jewelry luck!!! I won't go into too much depth but back in Feb, I custom made a bracelet for my wife to v-tines day that was meant to be her something blue in our wedding in August ([URL='https://www.pricescope.com/community/threads/something-blue-for-valentines-day.156501/']https://www.pricescope.com/community/threads/something-blue-for-valentines-day.156501/[/URL]). Long story short, I return from Iraq in April and am in Colorado (we live in San Antonio) for 3 months after I return and somehow in the visiting back and forth, she loses the bracelet. Needless to say, she was devastated because of the sentimental meaning behind the bracelet and only having it for like 2 months and not even getting a chance to wear it in the wedding. She looked EVERYWHERE, called the airlines, etc and we just assumed that because it was so dainty, she caught it on something and it broke off and she never noticed. We were both pretty bummed by it but c'est la vie.
Fast forward to today. I am laying on the couch enjoying a break from work (hence my recent return to PS) and she returns from shopping to tell me something is wrong with the garage door. So being the "mr fix it" that I am (or so I think), I go out there, yell and scream (like most men do that don't know what they are doing), she comes out to "help" and in watching me repeatedly drop the screws as I am up on a chair trying to disassemble the opener, one of the screws I drop escapes under some mess so she start searching for it while I am still trying to further break the opener and I hear "OH MY GOD" and I look down and say "are you ok?" and I see her standing there with bracelet in hand!! And absolutely no damage at all!! How in the world in wound up in the garage one will never know, but there it was. I just wish we could have stumbled across this before the wedding but it was a great blessing (and great sign) that we found it today because after all that, I said "oh well, lets just call someone to fix this thing" and put the opener back together.....and what would you know, it worked!!!! hahahaha Maybe I should go play the lottery today!!! Just thought I would share my good fortunes! Happy Tuesday!
