***SWEAR WORDS***

qosWhen my Ex-husband and I got engaged, I was working for a jeweler, which meant I could purchase jewelry at cost.
This meant we got me an absolutely gorgeous ring: approx. 2/3-carat pear-shaped diamond, set on its side over a curve of tapered baguettes in an 18kt yellow gold setting. The diamond was personally selected for me by the diamond buyer of the company.
When we separated, I offered it back to my Ex, but he told me (nicely) to keep it. I put it in my jewelry box, and didn't wear it for several years. Now, I wear it on my right hand once every few months, because it's gorgeous and unusual.
I wore it about a week ago.
I can't find it now.
It's not in my jewelry box. It's not on my dresser. It's not under my dresser. It's not in my purse or the purse I was carrying a while ago. It's not on my nightstand. It's not on the shelf on my home office desk where I sometimes set my jewelry.
I. Can't. Find. It.
Housecleaning suddenly takes on a whole new level of urgency.

This is *not* a good day for me and jewelry.
