I packed some jewelry–a necklace and two pairs of earrings–for a trip to Savannah in mid-August. Or at least I thought I did. I never wore them during the trip. I wore the same silver hoops and beaded bracelet for the duration of the trip. I never found the earrings and necklace when I got home and unpacked. Continuing searches in my bureau, suitcase and duffel bag have yielded no results.
When I visited my mom on her birthday (August 24), I noticed that her peridot-silver heart pendant and chain were lying on her night stand, and the chain was broken. I have replaced the silver chain at least three times–guess they aren’t made well. I stuffed the necklace and pendant in the front pocket of my purse and promised Mom I’d replace the chain. Both are missing. I’m not sure if they fell out of my purse, or if I took them out and put them somewhere else (don’t think so).
It’s only jewelry. Maybe it’s a sign that I am casting off the old and embracing the new? But why my mom’s necklace too?
My mind has been scattered what with the short sale of our house, our imminent move and family matters. It feels like things are running ahead of me and it’s hard to keep up.
As I said, it’s only jewelry. It could always be worse.

Not sure it was appropriate to “like” this – but I did and you know what I mean.

It’s fine, Roger. I am so scattered lately.

Annoying, isn’t it? I’m the queen of losing things, but it still irks me when it happens.

I’m sure it will improve once some of the stress is gone. (Of course, then it’s followed by “I know I looked there. Why didn’t I see it then.”) I think it may be gremlins taking advantage of our scattered brains. 🙂

Ha ha, the gremlins, that’s it!

My hectic life borders on complete chaos at time resulting in misplaced key, phone, handbag and at and if my head were not attached that would most likely go as well. When I lose my keys I pick up my IPhone and just press button on my retriever mini tracker app and there are my keys. I posted the website. I hope this is ok..
