Oh My,
I''m all shaken up because I just shipped my ering off to James Allen to be reset.
Why is that just so dang scary?
The poor woman at the post office had to constantly reassure me!
I am both thrilled and terrified!
 
It will be fine; I was nervous too! Can''t wait to see it set!!!!

Thanks Skippy! Me too.
I took tons of "before" pictures with pricescope in mind!
Now... the waiting!
 
I know how you feel! It''s always scary when you have to ship something valuable, especially something that you''re emotionally attached to!!!

Don''t worry, though . . . I''m sure everything will be fine. Breathe! LOL!

BTW, I love your user name and your avatar! I''m owned by a Dane, too . . . his name is Caesar and he''s a seven-year-old merle.

I''ve lost count of the number of diamonds I''ve sent via registered mail - never had a problem. It will be fine! How long will your reset take?
 
Thanks All!

Thanks for commenting on my "daughters" Emm, there''s nothing quite like a dane.
They are wonderful sweethearts-- (also weirdly the reason for my finger injury--that lead to this reset!)

Thanks Irish Breakfast~ I must admit I had to talk myself down. I freaked out when I left the Post Office.
I''ve marked the calendar! My ring should get to Danhov in about 2 or 3 days.
Then about 2 or so weeks for the reset.
How does one not CONSTANTLY think about it?
I have too much time on my hands being a teacher with the summer off!

Oooooh, how exciting!!! Can''t wait to see it!
 
luvmyhalo,
thanks! My new setting will be in a halo too! Gasp! I am SO excited! Is it still today? I feel like I mailed it three weeks ago!
 
Your girls are just beautiful! And you really can''t be too upset about the finger injury they inflicted on you if it''s leading to better bling! LOL!

You know, it''s funny ~ I have a dane-inflicted injury, too! I slipped on his drool and cut my arm on his crate! No, seriously! LOL! This was a few years ago and I now have a really nasty scar from this incident. (Fortunately, it''s on the underside of my arm so no one sees it; unfortunately, it didn''t get me any bling! LOL!)

And I feel your pain on the waiting. DH and I recently ordered me a pair of princess-cut studs for my birthday, and they''re not here yet! The guy is supposed to e-mail me when he ships them, and I''m like obsessively checking my e-mail! LOL!

Don''t worry . . . your ring will be done before you know it, and you have to promise to post LOTS of pics when it gets here!!!

Emm,

You really did make me laugh out loud!
I''d love to see pics of your Caesar.
Drool, no less, yes, it''s a huge part of our lives!
I hope your studs come SOON! Waiting is a nightmare!
(Oh, and my first dane broke my nose...but it led me to a better nose, if you know what I mean!---I can''t believe
I just admited to that!)
Yes, things could be worse, lol!
 
I'll have to see if I can get some decent pictures of Caesar and our other two dogs (who are both lab mixes). DH has our digital camera stashed away with his fishing stuff somewhere, so I'll have to get him to dig it out!

Is there a thread somewhere for pet pics? If not, THERE SHOULD BE!!! LOL!

ETA: OK, so you've gotten new bling AND a new nose from dane injuries?!?! Wow, I really need to learn how to work this dane-ownership thing a little better!!!
2.gif
 
I''m so excited for you 2Danes!! I can''t wait to see it when you get it back!!

How is your finger doing? Has the swelling finally gone down?

I have a small scar between my eyes from my Newfie''s big ol'' drooly noggin''. I bent over him to grab a toy he was playing with and he excitedly lifted his head up...right into mine. It could have been worse, though, if his head had hit me a few inches lower, he would have broken my nose (sorry to hear about your broken nose, 2danes!). I didn''t get any bling for it, either...just a couple of stitches.
 
We totally need to create a pet thread if there isn't one already!
Maybe if we had our pets posing with diamonds?

New England Lady,
That's EXACTLY how I broke my nose, lol! I was standing over my sweet little pup (at over 100 lbs.)
and she got excited and lifted her head into my nose.. I TOTALLY saw stars!
I actually (truth be told) broke it a couple more times before fixing it, from some sports related events-- but my
pup caused the first crack.

Okay, off to check the status of my diamond, something new to obsess about!

Oh, and edited to add that my finger is doing well! I just got home from therapy, and I can almost make a fist again!
It will be a long time before it's completely healed, but the size of my knuckle now is mostly bone, so I decided it was
time to get that RING!
Therapy is kind of fun, I get to dip my hand in parafin, it's kind of like a spa, but then they torture me, lol.

Of course!
Should have known! LMAO, Lorelei, thanks for the link!
As soon as my ring gets back I''ll make my pups pose with it!!!
tee hee
 
HEE hee hee!!! Thanks, Lorelei! Some of those pictures are hilarious!

I''ll have to see if I can get my "kids" to sit still long enough to get their pics taken . . . and NOT eat the bling! LOL!

Okay Ya''ll,
Should I be freaking out now? I constantly check the usps website, and my ring seems to be STILL sitting in the same spot, 3 days later! I shipped it three dail mail! Argh! I actually even called the usps and they told me that after five days I could complain...
complain? I''m freaking out!

aaaaaaaaaaah

Trying to keep it together,
Annie
 
OK, if you paid for three-day mail, why has it NOT moved in three days?!?!
23.gif


I don''t get why they want you to wait five days before complaining . . . you didn''t pay for five-day mail!!!
29.gif


I would be rather pissed, personally. I just don''t get why it hasn''t even left the post office yet??? That makes exactly NO sense to me at all!!!
38.gif
 
Thanks Emm,

I feel validated!

They said that three days is just an estimate... argh!
My ring should be in LA by now! Danhov jewelers should be working on it!
Crud.
Luckily, it''s Friday, and we are headed to the lake for some rest, relaxation, and cocktails...
I''ll have some extra cocktails now!

Have a great weekend!

Annie
 
You too, Annie! Have a cocktail (or five

) for me, and give your "kids" hugs for me!
