I am kind of at a loss for words this morning.
Just over two years ago, my engagement ring broke and I lost the diamond.. which I did end up finding a few months later, but the ring has sat in jewelry box since then because life has gotten in the way of actually getting it fixed.
Well, this morning, as I sat down for our team meeting, and I looked down at my hand.  My left hand to be specific.  It was naked.  No wedding band.  FUCK.  I could feel the blood drain from my face.  The ring was a little big when I got it, and since I didn't know if I would gain weight in my hands with pregnancy I didn't get it fixed at the time, and now it was on my current mental list of things to do - get the engagement ring fixed and size my band.  I am hoping for a second miracle that lets me find my ring.  So many sentimental reasons - the gold was my grandfather's and contained a few melted down rings, a friend had made the ring, and well, it was my wedding band.
I am hoping it is at home, since I know I had it last night when I left work (since I always play with the band because it is a little big), and I will just need to reconstruct the places that I went.  I have everything crossed, and need to make a plan with my dear hubby about all this.  The time has come to make the call to the family jeweler to sort this out.  It sucks having a ring I can't wear, and it sucks that maybe I have lost the second one.  FUCK.  It frustrates me so much because aside from some really nice earrings I got from Ken, I don't have a lot of valuable jewelry.  I have some really nice silver jewelry, but it just isn't on the same level.  This was it - my wedding rings.  You have faith when things are made that they are made right... and well, I guess not the place a corner should have been cut and now it is a life lesson.
