deird1The Good:
I finished crocheting my blue wrap! Go me!
Here it is:
The Bad:
My mother bought me wonderfully lovely earrings from Europe, that were beautiful blue glass and perfect for me. And I got to wear them for a whole half hour before one of them dropped off my ear somewhere between home and work.
That's three railway stations, two trains, and quite a bit of footpath. I'm not getting it back.
And yes, I know it's just an earring, and children starving in Africa etc, but part of me wants to just sit here and burst into tears for a while...

Sorry to hear about the earring. You could put up sad little Missing posters along the route? :-(
Or maybe some kind soul handed it in to lost and found at a station?
