Last night, I noticed that one of my earrings is lost. I scratched my right ear and noticed it was gone. It was 1am mind you (I was busy reading a book). I panicked! It is an 18 or 21 karat (can't exactly remember) earrings and I had it for 30 years (since I was 8 yrs old). I looked for it crawling everywhere in the house in the middle of the night and can't find it. I dreaded that I lost it while I was in the shop and almost cried. Told my mum via FB messenger (it was morning time in Manila) and she told me if I couldn't find it, she has a spare earrings she can give to me. I woke up this morning and started searching again (in our car, and the garden, which was quite difficult to look into because of tall grass) and I still couldn't find it.
I told hubby that I wish it just miraculously turn up when I stop looking for it, but I was still devastated. So after an hour or so later, I did the cage morning clean and topped up the piggies' hay and bowls. I opened one door of the tv cabinet where I store the guinea pig pellets and there below the door was my earring (the door was hiding it when it's closed)!
Hubby said, obviously I didn't search enough and I should've worn my glasses!
Whew! Now I decided to just buy a cheap pair or earrings that I can wear everyday. I started wearring my gold earrings a year ago coz the holes in my ear were starting to close (I rarely used jewelleries coz I'm just always in the house). I don't want to go crazy looking for it again in case it drops from my ears unknowingly.
