I'm so sorry to hear this. I d...Aww, Carolyn. I'm so sorry to hear this. I do hope that diamond turns up. Seems many people have lost their diamonds. Maybe I should start looking down more often. I lost a ring once of very high sentimental value. It was a delicate gold band made from my mother's gold fillings (a weird concept, I know). I was heartbroken and never found it. BUT you never know. You hear tales sometimes of lost items turning up many years down the road....<br /><br />About watch repairs. So incredibly frustrating, I know. My husband had a collection of fine watches. Little did I know that fine watches are like fine automobiles -- they need constant adjustment and repair (all those little gears and lubrication, etc), and over a lifetime, you could easily spend as much as the original cost of the watch in repairs alone. It was an eye opening lesson.Bella Sinclairhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02139728758198482234noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5371375811459443941.post-19350695375729533252010-04-15T23:02:42.331+12:002010-04-15T23:02:42.331+12:00Many thanks Dustjacket for your visit and kind not...Many thanks Dustjacket for your visit and kind note.<br /><br />Hugs<br />CarolynDraffin Bearshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01448539647442095635noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5371375811459443941.post-61380289467577573842010-04-15T19:21:07.137+12:002010-04-15T19:21:07.137+12:00I have to say it does make me annoyed when you pay...I have to say it does make me annoyed when you pay for quality and it's not there.....<br /><br />So sorry about your diamond honey, big hugs DJdebra@dustjackethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02397055465607649038noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5371375811459443941.post-2760144963224076452010-04-15T14:11:48.372+12:002010-04-15T14:11:48.372+12:00Hi Rebecca,

Blessings to you.<br /><br />Thanks Gleenn,<br /><br />I think it is a good idea to get your ring checked by a jeweler, because things do wear, with time.<br />I should have done that.<br /><br />Thanks Carrie, for your visit.<br /><br />Dear Anya,<br /><br />That is such a lovely Russian saying and I do think it is true.<br />thank you for sharing this with me and this did make me feel better.<br /><br />Oh Dear Rose,<br /><br />So really glad that you found your diamond ring and did not have to tell your Mother it was lost.<br />Now at least you will not have to worry about the ring.<br />Thanks for your visit, dear friend.<br /><br />Nancy, I am like you never take my rings off and in hindsight I probably should have taken it off when olive picking, because I have a feeling that is where it probably is. Have to keep looking.<br />Yes, the olives are good, and the smell was divine in the factory where I took them to be pressed.<br /><br />Hi Twila,<br /><br />Ruby red is such a beautiful colour.<br />I am sorry that your dress, did not make this show, but I know next time yours will. Must have been fun anyway.<br /><br />Many thanks Dorthe, for your visit and kind words.<br />Happy week<br /><br />Hugs<br />CarolynDraffin Bearshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01448539647442095635noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5371375811459443941.post-57529067950927579562010-04-15T08:18:54.261+12:002010-04-15T08:18:54.261+12:00Hi dear, so sad for you ,hope you find the stone a...Hi dear, so sad for you ,hope you find the stone again, would be worth spending some time to find it.The watch I think is so bad ,not living up to its name.<br />Beautiful ruby colored photoes.<br />xo DortheDorthehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13685326242045661724noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5371375811459443941.post-80746735169438181972010-04-15T06:02:30.156+12:002010-04-15T06:02:30.156+12:00oooohhh I love the color you picked..especially th...oooohhh I love the color you picked..especially the first photo!<br /><br />Twila<br />blog.twilasvintageclothing.com<br />twilasvintageclothing.com<br /><br />PS My dress didnt make it but thanks for the good wishes.Twilahttp://blog.twilasvintageclothing.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5371375811459443941.post-90712867142090191652010-04-15T05:12:39.874+12:002010-04-15T05:12:39.874+12:00Oh, you poor thing...Carolyn, I am so sorry.
