..........it's back to work I go. Got a lot accomplished today. Sorta have a grip on where we are in the grand scheme of things.
Not long after I received my beautiful engagement ring, I either used hand sanitizer or a bathroom cleaning product that tarnished the gold and turned it purple. Where my finger constantly rubs the band, the tarnish came off. Last week I took it in to the Gem Collection to see what happened and to get it cleaned....hopefully. I just about had a meltdown driving down Capital Circle toward the store. I got John's wedding ring from the Gem Collection, and we looked there for mine. I had a hard time giving the girl my ring. Then when she said she needed to take it up to the jeweler, I sat down and nervously waited for her return. She was gone a while, brought it back into her room to blow it dry, and it was fabulous! The jeweler sent me a message to NOT do that again. I assured her I take it off now when I clean. A little while later I made a stop at my bank and the girl complimented my ring. Made me feel good.
Yesterday was rough, probably because I knew I was going back to work today. Plus Fred posted pictures from Kimberly's wedding and that made me think of Vickie which made me sad.
For years, when I'd make copies at school, I'd spend the time standing there talking on the phone with John. One of the 'firsts' happened again. I almost reached for the phone on the wall to call John as the copy machine whirred along.
