:) Thank you! I didn't want to leave everyone in suspense. *g*

Wow.
YAY to finding it though, yeah, a little spooky. (see, Thor beamed it back but he doesn't quite understand how Tau'ri dwellings work so assumed he could just send it anywhere and...)

But yay! Very glad you found it and didn't eat it.
(I don't get to say THAT sentence often)

It was WEIRD. I was speechless for a while - she just said she'd find it, and boom, there it was. She's magic, my mum. :D

I forgive Thor, though. He can't be expected to know every little detail.

Mom's are possessed with magical "finding things" powers, in my experience. Must be some permanent change pregnancy hormones make on your brain or something.

That Thor, he means well, but sometimes he's too distracted mooning over Jack.

You have no idea how many times that type of thing happens to me. The second I stop looking, either I find it or my mother finds it. But I'm glad you found it - it sounds like a lovely piece and it would have been quite sad if you couldn't wear it anywhere!

Dec. 26th, 2007 05:04 pm (UTC)

Yeah, it happens a fair amount to me, too. Mostly through my own fault - I also found a jar of nutmeg in my pots and pans cupboard this morning. *eyeroll* I'm like that, I guess - if I'm distracted, nothing is safe. :D

^^;; Yeah... I do this thing where I'll set something down without paying any attention to where I set it, and then it'll take me hours to find it again. I'm terrible... but it's nice to know I'm not the only person in my acquaintance who does that!

I'm glad it didn't take months. :)

Yay! Put that sucker on right now! : )

I'm hoping the same thing will happen for me. I lost a ring last week when I took it off to color my hair. Afterwards I went to put both of my rings back on and one was missing and nowhere to be found. Though I am taking it as a message from the gods that it's finally time to get my favorite opal ring sized so I can wear it again. My hand feels naked without a ring.

Dec. 26th, 2007 06:10 pm (UTC)

I am NOT letting it out of my sight, from now on.

Aw, I hope you find your ring. It can't have gone far if you didn't leave the house, that's always my theory - although that doesn't help if they slip into cracks in the floorboards or things like that - not far, but not findable, either. Might your cat have played with it?

Yeah, I figure Kaylee might have fished it out of the soap dish and decided to play with it while I was in the shower. I'm just really glad it wasn't my grandmother's engagement ring. I would have been really upset.

Kaylee has quite a habit of hiding things. When I came home I used to always put my keys on my dresser. One day I couldn't find them. I tore up the place looking for them and was about to go to get new keys made before my roommate left for the weekend when I found them. They were in my sock drawer. Kaylee must have pushed them into the drawer when it was open and I didn't see them when I closed it. I know put my keys on a hook out of her reach.

Yay!

Yeah. I had a ring that I lost, and after I gave up, my brother waltzed over to me (well, not literally waltzed, but wev), and handed me the ring. Silly people looking for your stuff can find it.

It really is about positive thinking and giving up, though. I do not understand how it can be so, but the universe responds to confidence. ;-)

Dec. 26th, 2007 06:12 pm (UTC)

It's just annoying how that happens, isn't it? Well, good - but still annoying. :) I think the universe was out to prove me wrong - it likes to do that, and I was kind of skeptical that my mum would find it.

Hah.

So am I. I really didn't want to have eaten it. *g*

Heh, when I read
My disappearing necklace has had an entirely appropriate end
I was all "Nooo she did eat it!" But it's ok.
Mothers can be freakishly omniscient. Glad you found it!

Dec. 26th, 2007 11:18 pm (UTC)

Heh. Thank god, NO.

Usually I think of my mum as ditzy, but I am in awe at her freaky powers, today. :D

Heh! Do you sleepwalk?

But isn't that always the way? We have to pick various order components at work, and they have stickers on them with the order number. Undoubtedly, when one of us can't find one, and we've looked everywhere three times and are simply SURE it just isn't anywhere to be found... we'll give the tag to another person, and they'll find it within 30 seconds.

It must have gotten hooked in your socks or pajama leg or something and when you walked through that room it went flying.

OR! It could have been ALIENS!

Dec. 26th, 2007 11:23 pm (UTC)

Nah, the most I do is sleep sit-up-in-bed-and-claim-I-have-to-phone-someone. Although I am very good at turning my alarm off without apparently waking up, too. Dammit.

Yeah, I think your theory is the most likely... It was aliens! *g*
