"Please let me know if it can't be me..."
Never try on jewelry when you're slightly pissed at your husband and you have no money. We were at WalMart today (big surprise) and while DJ was taking 13 hours to pick out a pair of fucking sunglasses, I left the kids with him and wandered over to the jewelry counter, intent on browsing only. I'm not a huge jewelry person (I only wear my wedding band) but I absolutely love to try on rings. This can be slightly depressing so I don't do it very often. I found the most beautiful wedding set ever. Backstory: I don't have an engagement ring. DJ bought me a very small, very pretty and very heartfelt diamond and ruby ring right when we were first married and for years I wore that as an engagement ring. We've never had the money to buy a proper ring for me and although I would love one, I get that we just can't afford it. So I spotted this beautiful set today and tried it on, against my better judgement.
I loved it so much and couldn't bear to take it off. I showed it to DJ and he stayed calm, although I know he got immediate heartburn over the price ($600). He said it was pretty and asked if I wanted it. Of course I wanted it...whatta dumbass. Now I'm home, Jenn The Ringless Wonder, and feeling slightly sorry for myself that I don't have it. I'm sending him the link, hoping he'll remember which one I liked and surprise me with it for our anniversary in November. Or maybe for an "It's Tuesday!" present.
He took Tyler with him on a run to Maine this week. They'll be back Saturday sometime. Leah's supremely pissed that she couldn't go but kids have to be 10 and she's far from it. We're going to make Jello later...she's such a weird girl, she loves making Jello.
