Default Lost and Found

A few weeks ago, we visited my parents in Wyoming, and Mrs. DAB brought along some of her jewelry, including a pair of turquoise earrings I had given her a few months ago.

We have a nice visit, i get a bunch of chores done for dad, and then we pack up and come back home. Mrs. DAB is unpacking her stuffs, and cannot find the earrings I had given her and that she had worn at least once while we were there.

hmmmm......ok, call mom and dad, give them a heads up, and ask that they keep any eye out for them.

so today, Mrs. DAB comes into my office and announces that she had found the earrings this morning. they were in a little bag with her watch, and she hadn't looked in that bag, thinking that she must have lost them, as the little bag for the earrings was empty.

great!

except.....

a week ago i had ordered a replacement set for her, and those should arrive next month sometime (via eBay).

well dear, you either end up with two pairs, or you can give a pair away to someone later.

old joke:

husband and wife are making dinner one night, and she asks him, "honey, if I die first, will you re-marry?"

"well, I don't know, I hadn't given that much thought"

"honey, I want you to be happy all your days, so I want you to promise me that you will re-marry if I die first"

"ok, I promise"

"will your new wife use my golf clubs?"

"no, she's left handed"

so much for dinner....

just checked with Mrs. DAB (she was out running errands), and it's a NO-GO on the girl friend idea.

i'll suggest she grow another set of ears....
