So im building a little silver stack in mourning for Tibby till i can affotd something grander in his menory
The signet ring was a little too big so i got a $45 silver wishbond ring from pandora to anchor it on and i loved it
but its winter and my hands are cold and its all still too big
I lost in last week hanging out the washing
well you wouldn't beleave it
i just found it
hanging out the washing
On the grass below the sheets
i had looked there
its hard to see

but instead of putting it in my pocket or bringing it inside i put it on my finger and kept hanging out the washing
And yip
you guessed it
ive lost it again :angryfire: :angryfire: :angryfire:
as well as the big line i have two little wire clothes horses that Tibby used to sleep on
any way i was also hanging stuff on those and then picking them up and shifting them around under the lounge window into the sun
so where i could have dropped it is now a much bigger area
also i angerly found a beer can under the lemon tree next door had thrown over so i went to throw it back (i am a bad throw) and it hit the fence
sigh

But im thinking if i earn $20 an hour at the bakery maybe i spend 2 hours on my hands and knees looking for it tomorrow
Its turned up once
it will turn up again
maybe Tibby is playing with me

I do that too, in that I would think either my late partner or Borda the dog was playing tricks on me when I lost something around the house, or when an electrical appliance would not start or break etc...

Good luck in finding it.

Thank you DK
im feeling down in the dumps as I've lost a few things of late
thought i had lost an earing mum had given me
stayed an hour after work young through the rubbish and the laundry to no luck
it feel out of my bra when i got home and had a shower (i did look there)
Gary says don't wear them but then when do i wear anything
I had chosen those earings because they had a tight looking hook i thought would stay in but we take our aprons off before we go to the loo and i remenber my cap coming off ...
Sigh

I used to work in a grocery store and at the end of the day, when I pulled the apron off, one earring would go flying!
This happened all the time, when I was in a hurry.
Back then I used to wear dangle earrings, with fish hook wires.

You can buy little silicone ‘plugs’ for want of a better word, that you put over the wires to hold them in place.

Thank you Austina
I had tried googerling for those thingies a while back but had no luck before having no idea what to call them
And for once the UK prices don't look too scary

I dont know if its age or impending arthritis but i find lever backs fidly
But then I don't think ive ever had great dexterity
When i scraped some gold last year i included some lever backs that were just too darn hard :(2
But i must say i like how my huggies work

I used to wear lots of really fun fashion type jewlery
We had some really fun accessory stores in our mall
But i hated getting to work and someone would compliment my choice .... and then their face would drop as they noticed i only had one earing
