losing rings | 365daysofmarriage

If you’ve followed the blog for a while, or if you’ve had conversations with us in person, you know Bret isn’t particularly good at holding on to wedding rings. As I scrolled through On This Day on Facebook, I discovered a very surprising thing…..Bret has been wearing the same ring set for more than HALF of our marriage! I can’t believe he hasn’t lost it yet! Way to go Bret! He says this ring set is so important to him because it used to be mine. I always give him a hard time and say, oh, so much more important than the one I PUT ON YOUR FINGER when I declared my commitment to you? But hey, it stuck.

Has your spouse lost any rings?

If you’ve been reading my blog for any amount of time, you know Bret has lost four rings. He’s currently on 5, 6 and 7 (it’s a three in one ring). I’ve given a hard time about this over the years, but I really don’t mind when he loses them. The rings are cheap (no more than $30) and our marriage is not based on the ring on his finger. And hey, it’s given me a TON of blogging material!

There have been a few times I’ve taken a picture with my rings for the blog and ALMOST forgot to put my rings back on. I think my favorite almost forgotten rings was when they were hanging on a flower at a restaurant. Doh!

Well folks, last night, I almost lost my engagement ring! I had just second shot/assisted with one of my favorite photographers, Robin Shotola of Shotola Photography & Design. We picked up Krispy Kreme doughnuts on the way back (HOT from the oven, be still my heart!) and I was taking a picture of my rings on top of my coffee cup (cute little heart shape on the top caught my attention). Robin was pumping gas and I put the coffee on my lap and the rings on top. Something got bumped and my rings went flying. I got the wedding band off the seat, but my poor engagement ring fell into the deep recesses that are the side of a car seat. I finally fished out the ring and took a picture on TOP of the car. 🙂 I can’t believe it’s taken me this long to have a scare like that with my ring(s). Though, it would’ve been fun/nice to get a new ring set!
