With this ring, I thee wed
Oh no oh no oh no oh no!! Andrew! Andrew! ANDREW! Come here, come here! Oh no! no no no no no!!
My Hubby was fantastic last night. I was very stressed, so he took Erica out for a walk and to go play. I had fantastic me-time. I first got into our Jacuzzi tub; very relaxing. Then padded downstairs to make some decaf coffee. Then I sat myself in front of the TV to watch a chick-flick.
During the movie, Andrew and Erica came home. He took her to "help" him w/ the dishes.
As I continued my movie, a scene came up that showed the lady's wedding ring. I felt reminiscent, so I touched my own ring.
[back to the begining] Oh no oh no oh no oh no!! Andrew! Andrew! ANDREW! Come here, come here! Oh no! no no no no no!!
My ring was a little too rough. When I looked down, the DIAMOND WAS MISSING on my engagement ring. I obviously started freaking out. I'd heard of things like this, but never thought it could happen to me.
I ran upstairs to the tub. I had no hope that it would still be there; as it was draining, I had washed it down w/ cups of water. [I hate when the bubbles stick to the empty tub.] I looked in, desperately, praying over and over: let it be here, let it be here.
I couldnt believe it. I saw a little white solid 'thing' close to the drain. Trying not to get my hopes up, I thought: its probably just a leftover bubble.
Can you believe it? It was my diamond!!! Its a miracle, really it is. I had swooshed everything else down the drain. The diamond should have gone down too. But it didnt.

BTW: As far as I can recall, I did't hit my hand on anything. Nothing happened that should have damaged the prongs. Especially since its platinum, not white gold. Platinum is supposed to be super-strong.
Jacuzzi??? Aren't you spoiled!
Good to know you didn't clean that tub as well as you thought, eh?? Glad you found it!
PTL you found it!!!
clairissa- glad you find my story funny and wacky. I, however, dont find it wacky at all. I still get weepy when i think of it
toni- i guess you could say i'm spoiled. Though, i hardly ever use the thing, b/c i dont have time.
abby- PTL indeed!
Linds- Having Andrew around did exactly make things better. He tried staying calm... and i was just so frantic. I didnt want to be calm. [The ironic thing is that I'm often telling HIM to stay calm. Now i know what its like for someone to tell you that]
:O
Did you get it fixed?
That happened to me once and thank goodness I found it as well, several days later in the carpet!
I'm so glad you found it.
