Miracle of Miracles

I have a favorite pair of earrings. I've had them for years and just love them. I haven't always been a big fan of jewelry but these earrings I would wear. And wearing them I was, about 2 weeks ago. On this occasion my earlobes just weren't feeling it and so I took them out. Guess where I put them? In my coat pocket. The same coat pocket were I put my car keys. And I forgot allllll about them. Until about 3 days later when I went to put them away and only one remained in my pocket.

I was heart broken (well... as heart broken as losing a pair of beloved earrings can make a girl). I searched everywhere I would normally pull out my car keys (driveway... train station...) and nothing. My earring was lost and gone forever.

Or so I thought...

Until yesterday after work. I was walking to my car thinking (of all things) about how that stupid florescent plastic bead has been in the parking lot for over a week and MY earring is nowhere to be found... and whammie. There it is. With the beautiful sun sparkling right on it. I was/am so excited.


It may be a little worse for the wear... but being driven on and exposed to the elements does that to an earring. After a little cleaning and some bending it'll be as good as new (or good enough...). Yay for small miracles!
