I'm ring-less!!!
With the wedding about a month away (and along with it, the anniversary of our engagement), I thought I'd take my ring to a jeweller to be cleaned and to make sure the setting is still holding strong. I was told it was a good idea to do this say once a year or so.
So in I go. Lo and behold, it turns out that the setting my stone is in is compromised! It wasn't set well, and apparently isn't a strong type. I was a bit unsure when we got it, but as you see heaps similar around, I figured it must be OK. But no!
So no engagement ring for 10 days while the jeweller fixes the setting and resets my rock!
We knew the stone has flaws, and to us that's fine, because its natural, and like life, nothing is perfect. But its our stone, and it would cost us a small fortune to replace, so I was freaking when I found out that the setting was a crappy one!
Oh well, its being fixed. But I feel so naked!!!
