Engagement ring freak out!! Lost and found!!

B. Yvette, on March 5, 2020 at 6:12 PM Posted in Community Conversations 0 9

Just calming myself down now....argh!!! Went home then forgot light bulbs, so went to the store and noticed my engagement ring and my moms mothers ring were not on my hands. I remember sanitizing my hands for the hundredth time today ( I work in admissions in a large hospital) and put them on my desk one time for a minute and in my pocket another time. No rings were in my pockets. Called back to the office to see if maybe I stupidly left them on my desk... nope, my coworker and supervisor were trying to calm me down because I was on the verge of tears!! Drove home, and my coworker was still on the phone with me. I come in the house for Kleenex and see my coffee table and OMG, there are both my rings!! I don’t remember taking them out of my pocket when I came home but apparently I did because I was going to change clothes and then remembered the light bulbs. My engagement ring is insured, but STILL!! And my mom’s ring is of great sentimental value (she passed on in 1998). The crazy thing is I am picking my fiancé up from the airport in five hours, and would have hated to tell him I lost the beautiful ring he gave me!! Thanks for letting me vent!!

    It is! I had mine on and then I was digging thru a bag of clothes and then next thing you know the ring is gone. It was luckily way deep in the folds of some clothes within the bag but that sudden panic was scary

    That’s scary. Glad you found it. I have only 1 place I ever put my rings if I take them off so I always know where to look.

    Glad you found it! Worst feeling I know! I lost my center diamond once! That was a scare! Lost it at a Safeway parking lot.. found it in the dark with a flash light after re-tracing my steps. Pure Luck!

    Yay! So good to hear you didn’t lose them. Did you ever think about getting a diamond simulate replica of your ring? I’m clumsy as heck so I wear my simulate which is pretty exact to my diamond n keep my diamond at home in my jewelry box. You should check out Tiger Gems if you’re interested in this idea

    I'm so happy for you that you found them!!! My sister who works with major handwashing related job gave up on wearing them on her hand, got a cheap fake ring and now wears hers on a chain around her neck.
