I wanted to keep the same rings (sentimental ol' me) so he put in a larger main diamond and replaced the smaller chips around it and the chips in the wedding band. I don't think I have ever heard the second 20 years go faster, but I think you're right. We'll hit our 29th next month, YIKES! Almost 30 years? Where did they all go???
Anyway, we had tuna noodle casserole last night. Pretty boring, I know, but something we both like a lot and I haven't made it in a LONG time. |
Yes, I was talking about rings. He tried to replace my stones about 10 years ago and, being sentimental also, wouldn't let him touch it. Then about 3 years ago, he took it in for a check/cleaning and was going to suprise me by having an anniversary band added (my rings are saudered sp? together). However the jeweler told him they wouldn't do it because my mounting for the main stone is going to fall off soon and they will not be able to fix it due to how it's constructed or something. They told me to take it off and stop wearing it. Well, I never stopped wearing it, but am now getting nervous every time I catch it on something that it's going to yank it off. DH wants to remove the stones and melt the gold down but there's NO WAY I will let him do that! So, we were looking. I saw 2 that I really liked, but I want to look around to see if one jumps out at me. I hate sales pitches, though. They try to pressure you into buying and that makes me crazy.
