Close to another loss..

Last night at the restaurant in company with good friends, my ring was missing.
We were looking all over the place, under the table, in the ladies room.
It was nowhere to find.
"A bad sign", I was thinking.

The ring is from the Barents Press meeting in Apatity, Russia 2012.
I couldn't speak Russian and the lady in the store didn't understand English. It was a miracle I could explain what I wanted.
I am a Buddhist but I love the Russian letters and the message is great.

You can guess my relief when I returned home. There it was:

Do I need to say, not only my dresses are getting too big!
