Something very strange happened last weekend.

I totally forgot about that, until right now.
I was just reading something, that made me think of it.

Last weekend I was at the flea market selling natural gemstone jewelry, that I make.
I have a separate smaller table with just rings.
My large display table gets 10 sheet pans across, 2 rows deep = 20 metal trays total containing different offerings.
They contain about 50 different gems and between 7 to 25 of each type.
I try to keep each type of gem organized in a column
continuing back for both aligned trays with the cheapest offerings in the front nearest to the
customers and the more expensive, larger stones/crystals in the back, closer to me in order of
progressing price.

Behind that I have fairly large gem crystals, both polished and in the raw state out of trays.
Also, in front of the trays I have 2 rows of pendants without gems.
The cheapest is silver alloy pendants on silver plated chains. Those are only $1 each and
directly behind that are silver pendants with a glass cover and a picture behind the glass.
Those are $2 each.
For those I offer a variety of different colored pleather straps for the customer to choose. My intent is to have something cheap for kids as well all incomes of adults.
But, you'd be surprised though, sometimes it's the adults who prefer the cheaper stuff.
To each their own.
Regardless, my prices thus range between $1 and about $100 each with a bunch of prices in between.

Although I may sell from 15 to 100 of those $1 silver alloy pendants in a day, they can be a pain,
especially is it is windy. If so, a few of them ultimately end up on the ground and with others,
the wind blows the lightweight chains and hopelessly tangles them.
When that happens I just throw them in a bag, to untangle sometime during the week, while I watch
ball games, or Colbert, on TV later in the week for the following weekend.
Although I've gotten pretty good at it, it can take a good 5 to 15 minutes each time, depending upon how badly tangled they get.

Last weekend, that happened. So, I threw 3 of them, that were hopelessly tangled together into a
small plastic bag, and put that bag in my coat pocket for later.

Several hours went by and I was quite busy with sales.
But, about 3 o'clock (I get there before 7:30 am) there was a slow period of time.

So, I figured it was a chance to TRY to untangle those $1 pendants, if I could there.
Thus, I pulled the plastic bag out of my coat pocket and reached inside.
To my amazement all 3 chains with the pendants were completely untangled.
I have never had that happen before and I doubt it will ever happen again.
But, it was odd, very odd.

I'm not sure if anything that odd happened to you before,
but I was shocked, when it happened to me last Sunday.
Sometimes things just work out perfectly with minimal effort;
