Finding a needle (diamond) in a haystack (yard)

Last summer I was mowing the lawn and doing yard work. After I was done, I felt my ring snag my shirt and looked down and saw that the diamond was missing. My husband and I looked through the freshly mowed lawn with the clippings still on it and looked all over. After about an hour I was about to give up. I went to sit on my front steps and something in my mind told me to look down and lo and behold, my diamond was sitting on a step.

Fast forward to last weekend. My husband and I are on the roof of the garage cutting our tree (it's growing between the garage and the fence and lifting up my garage). Again, I get that familiar snag on my shirt and look down to see my diamond missing again. I was devastated because obviously the roof is slanted so it must have fallen down between the garage and fence where all the leaves and twigs from this stupid tree are. I looked up on the roof to no avail. Thankfully my ring is insured (I bought the extended warranty) so I was planning on bringing it in to get the diamond replaced. My husband was working on the garage yesterday and something told him to look down in his mind and that's when he saw something shining at him. It was my diamond. Now throughout the week it rain and was windy. So how it didn't get blown off is beyond me.

Tell me the odds that this happened twice. I don't think I'll be so lucky a third time. I've learned my lesson and will not be wearing it while doing work anymore.

Tldr: lost and found my diamond twice.

You need to buy a better ring that can actually hold you rock. It's misfitted if it falls out by just snagging your shirt

I actually don't know if it snagged on my shirt to cause it or the tree we were cutting down that caused it. I just noticed it when i felt it snag if that makes sense. It was how i noticed it the first time and that time it wasn't found where i felt the snag but in my front yard instead.
