So yesterday I wrote about our past week at student camp… I wanted to keep it positive so I didn’t bring up the one, and only, horrible part of the week.
I lost my wedding ring in the ocean…. I want to vomit thinking about it. It happened last Tuesday…
I have tried to remind myself… It’s just a ring, it’s replaceable... That doesn’t seem to help much! I am definitely an incredibly sensitive and sentimental person so losing one of the most important things Matt gave me was traumatic. Yes, maybe traumatic is a bit extreme…well…if I’m being honest…that’s not really extreme. I was pretty upset and have been since it happened.
Guess I just needed to vent about it for a minute….
Matt replaced my old ring already :) We went and got the exact same one Saturday. I was very adamant about having the same one… but now it just feels weird.
It’s kind of strange to have the same ring I lost… It’s almost like more of a reminder of the one that I lost…am I making ANY sense?!
Probably not so I’m gonna just stop here…
All this to say: DON’T EVER WEAR YOUR WEDDING RING IN THE OCEAN! I want everyone to learn from my mistake! I will never do that again. I will also ALWAYS make sure my ring is sized to my finger. It has been lose for a little bit and I said to Matt a couple days before we left: “When we get home I really need to get this resized.”
Ughh…. I am very grateful that it was just a ring and not something more valuable or irreplaceable. I’m also very grateful for Matt… He’s been so amazing about the whole thing! Love you, babe :)
Okay so the next post will be more positive and not such a downer :) I actually have a funny Princess video to post!
