whew that was close...

I was driving down the road with Karl and I was putting lotion on my hands. I took off my bracelets because sometimes the lotion turns the silver black.  I wear two bracelets everyday. I never take them off... in fact I am a serial jewelry wearer. If I put it on it stays on until it literally falls off... Or I have to take it off to not ruin it.  Like my butterfly necklace! Lesson there learned. If I didn't take it off before a shower the water would make its way into the necklace and get the wing of the butterfly wet.  NOT GOOD! The artist Neile sent me a replacement (totally sweet of her).

Well, my one bracelet slipped down between the seats of the car. I couldn't reach it. I thought I would wait till I got home to get a paper clip or pen or something to try and get it out.

Fast Forward:

I went to get the car cleaned out and washed the other day. Guess what I forgot to do! YEP... Get my bracelet.  This is my sister bracelet the one I gave all my sisters. Including Angel. 

I forgot about it until I walked into a playdate and saw a friend wearing a similar heart pendant bracelet. I ran out to the car to check on it and sure as shit it was gone. And well....

I LOST MY SHIT!

I realized my bracelet means more to me than anything! I mean it ranks up there with my original wedding set and my new wedding set.  It means everything to me. 

I bawled cried my mind raced.... HOW in the world was I going to get it back? It had been sucked up by the worlds largest vacuum cleaner and lord knows what those car wash places suck up.

Apparently a lot.  Because when I called the manager told me they look through it before the dump it. Sure enough... there was my bracelet in the trash. 

I picked it up and put it back on my wrist where it will remain forever....
