Where's my Ring?

Well, incase you haven't heard, were snowed in again and we're getting a ton of heavy snow.  Can I tell you that CK is never sick, and the one time he breaks his wrist, is the time Philly decides to break records with snow falls (no pun intended in that sentence at all).  Oh well, what's a girl to do??  However, I have realized that shoveling, isn't fun. Ok, I mean I already knew that, but in additional to the back aches, time, coldness to the bones, is that my ring is too big to pull my gloves over. Now, not being able to wear my ring, umm that's not fun.

My mom says that she neeeever took her ring off when she first got it.  However, she says one of her good friends takes it off when she goes to bed at night.  I don't take it off when I sleep, but when I shovel :)  Sometimes when I am doing the dishes too, because who wants cheese stuck in their ring?  I am always concerned that something is going to happen to it though.  I have this awesome bay window facing out from the kitchen sink so I place it there, but you never know.  Then, I got a present today from a close family friend, in a pink package of course.  And to my surprise.....its a ring holder!

Pretty perfect, since I have been contemplating what to do!  From this picture, you can kinda see the fabulous pink ring.  Also, you can see that we have a ton of cards.  CK and I have had a lot of big-cardworthy things happen to us in the past 6 months.  We bought a house at the end of November (hence the house card).  I also finally got my Master's degree (hence the graduate card), plus the obvious, we got engaged. Besides, the white wash of snow from the window, you may also notice the sparkley train.  I mention this, because you may need to know this for later.  My group of friends from college went everywhere together, therefore at times we appeared to be train-like.  Trains will forever have a place in my heart now and I hope they will all be able to see me marry the boy I love since we are all scattered throughout the US now :)

When do you take your ring or rings off?

When i shower... because they get all caught in my think curly hair and mostly anytime im going to get my hands wet. They get lose and i dont like how they slip around on my finger. Also when I dry my hands that finger never really get dry enough for me with the ring on... When i put lotion on and when i do my hair too (dont want Gel all up in my ring), sometimes my hand swell at night and it actually wakes me up so i take them off..and one last thing... when i make meatballs or foods that i have to mix with my hands! Other than that I LOVE my rings on my finger!!! Occassionaly i forget to put them back on and my hubby gets angry with me :( He NEVER takes his off. I have a GOOD MAN!
