I found my rings!

Yesterday I put on a pair of jeans and deep in the right hand pocket were all 3 rings! I had searched the pocket of these jeans and all my trousers several times, how had I missed them? I feel a right plonker!
Sincere thanks to everyone who replied to my original post, thank you for your good thoughts and your prayers. I believe that all of them worked towards letting my rings be found. I am so relieved and will be extra careful from now on.

Great news - so glad for you. sunshine

Wonderful. You say you looked there before and they were not there. They were then put where you would find them....not where you lost them.... Life is strange

ReadyMeals Sat 18-May-19 10:34:05

You hadn't missed them. They returned there after you looked. Sorry but I am 99.9% sure now these things DO happen for real.

Brilliant! I'm so glad you found them. I'll bet you had the best day in the world after that.

So pleased for you, thank goodness it turned out they were all in one place. Enjoy wearing them again.

So pleased for you ?

Great news! They had to be somewhere, we all knew it.

So pleased for you. Thanks for letting us know.smile

I'm so pleased you found your rings. It's a huge relief, isn't it. I know exactly how you are feeling. I think elation best described how I felt when I found my pendant.

Great news Bonnie... I knew there’d be in a pocket somewhere. Mine usually were.

lizzypopbottle Sat 18-May-19 11:10:11

I'm pleased your rings turned up. Mind over matter is very strong. If you tell yourself you can't find something, chances are you won't find it! Then, when you're not looking for it and your mind is relaxed, Bingo!, there it is!

Lilyflower Sat 18-May-19 11:17:00

Bonnieblooming, that's great. Can you find mine for me now? Nice gold ring with a ruby surrounded by diamonds. No idea what happened to it.

MrsJamJam Sat 18-May-19 11:25:35

My son explained to me long ago that there is a gap in the space/time continuum and sometimes things fall through it. No matter how much you search you won't find them. Then one day they fall back through and you will find them somewhere you have searched before. I find this theory very comforting when something lost suddenly reappears. Not my fault!

Hellsbelles Sat 18-May-19 11:47:13

Phew ! Glad you have found them.

jaylucy Sat 18-May-19 11:52:19

That's brilliant! Now if you could find my ring that I lost 7 years ago ..........

dustyangel Sat 18-May-19 12:25:19

Really pleased for you.smile I found my Kindle 5 minutes ago. In the side pocket of my bag where I always put it if I know I’ll need it when I’m going out. I’d looked there four or five times already!
It’s been missing for two days.

Greenfinch Sat 18-May-19 12:41:51

Well done !I am still looking for my driving licence lost 10 years ago !I was miffed at having to replace it.

minxie Sat 18-May-19 12:42:51

Brilliant news

crazyH Sat 18-May-19 12:44:26

So pleased for you

Mapleleaf Sat 18-May-19 12:46:18

Good news, Bonnie. All those prayers to St Anthony worked!! ?

Peardrop50 Sat 18-May-19 12:54:57

Superb news, very pleased for you.

mtp123 Sat 18-May-19 13:02:40

Very pleased you found them, I hate "misplacing" things and the more I worry about it the less chance I have of finding them. It is always a lovely surprise when I do!

Hazeld Sat 18-May-19 13:09:16

That's great Bonnie Blooming. I wonder how they got there?
At least you got them back. I would be devastated if I lost mine. I bet you're thrilled to bits and thanks for letting us know. It's great when these mishaps have a happy ending.
