Strung along

Bling me back to you.

This Valentine's Day I got Wendy a charm for her Pandora bracelet. Yeah, I am not ruining the surprise. I gave her the charm last night. I do Valentine's Day is not until Sunday. If I have a gift for someone then I like to go ahead and give it to that person.

It was a dramatic moment when I received the charm, for me anyway. I ordered the charm off Ebay. I was not exactly sure when the charm would arrive. I knew I had ordered in plenty of time, but you never know. The shipper put the shipping information online so I could track it. It was in Maryland and then the next day I saw it was on the truck to be delivered.

I thought part of the surprise would be to go ahead and have the charm on Wendy's bracelet. So I unlatched the bracelet. No problem. Then I try to put on the charm. By the way it was Pandora Little Girl charm. Back to the story, I could not get the charm on the bracelet. I struggled for what felt like 30 minutes. Each minute getting more desperate. At one point I thought I broke the bracelet. I thought my inexpensive gift would cost me a lot more. I even called my sister-in-law to get advice on how to put the thing on.

By the way it did work out. The charm is on the bracelet. Wendy is happy.
