So Mad
H lost his wedding band. He took it off in the house and can't find it. I'm trying not to be upset with him but that ring was expensive and we don't have the money right now to get him a replacement.
I'm hoping it will turn up tonight when we do another search

Re: So Mad
I'm sure we will end up getting him a cheap replacement but it's just upsetting because 1. it was expensive and 2. that ring was blessed by the priest at our church on our wedding day. I know I can probably have them do this again and I may be overreacting but the ring meant more than just a piece of jewelry.
I know.....Out of the two of us I thought it would be me to lose my ring. He put it on the coffee table and doesn't remember what he did with it after that. It has to be somewhere. I'm going to dig through the trash tonight and check under every piece of furniture.
I'd get a cheapie for now and the other will show up (the power of positive thinking)
I lost a diamond from my wedding band last summer and had it replaced. Last month I found the stone randomly on my bedroom floor (sweeping/vaccuming a ton in between). So odd, but things can show up later even if you don't find it soon
Fingers crossed for you
I don't think you are overreacting .
DH lost his wedding ring, and we had only been married for 3 months. We replaced it, but years later I still look at it and think that it isn't the one that was blessed.
TMI Alert:
I still remember when I was 14 and my mom lost her wedding ring because it slipped off her finger as she was flushing the toilet after having been rather...sick.
We had a septic tank at the time and one of our neighbors was a plumber. He came over at 9 pm and they spent hours digging through a septic tank for that ring.
I remember thinking "Ok, this is ridiculous! Just get another ring!" But apparently my dad had had that ring custom designed for my mom when they were in college (the only nice thing he possibly EVER did for my mom) and it was irreplaceable since the original jeweler was gone...
It never turned up, but years later my sister went to the same college and found a jeweler in the same town that replicated the ring from a photo, but it cost her a boat-load of cash...
Sorry to ramble, I just remember how crushed my mom was after losing that ring and can definitely sympathize with your situation - no ring is ever the same as THE wedding ring.
