Your man is a real man and, for that, I am truly jealous! Congratulations :) </p> While that sucks about the car, I am sooo super impressed – though I know I shouldn’t be – that the DL stepped up instead if sticking with his Man Pride.

Diamonique from QVC. I have a couple of rings from there and I've fooled more than one folk with them (I do always correct them though). They have absolutely beautiful looking jewelry and at a fraction of the price of something real.</p> I know that you’ve gotten tons of suggestions from all of the folks for non-traditional rings, but on a thought I figured I’d throw out one more, conflict-free option.

I thought it was evidence of the man's ability to take care of his wife financially, but I like that interpretation! :) (That is probably because I was born a lot closer to 1946 than you.....not that that's a bad thing.....)</p><br /><br /><p>Hope that this year brings you all that you wish for yourself and for the DL. :) I've enjoyed reading your work for several years, now, and I think that this may be the happiest I've "seen" you to be. This is good!! :)</p> I did not know that the ring was supposed to be for insurance against besmirched virtue!

I've got a few rings in my safe deposit box. I would give one to you if you would have it. I have an engagement ring that I paid 1/2 for many years ago, that I designed. Ultimately we didn't get married but I still have that diamond ring. And I have one that my current husband and I bought in New Orleans at an antique store... very Victorian. I don't use it for my wedding ring as we elected to use my (long deceased) mother's ring set from 1952. I love my rings which make me think of my mother. I have another Celtic wedding ring (diamond and emerald) from James Avery. It was from my 1st marriage which was a bad idea from the start. I love my hubby and we'll celebrate 9 years married on 9/15/2010. Yes we got married 4 days after 9/11. And flew to Hawaii a few days later some of the brave souls to fly to Hawaii after 9/11. Maybe your mom has your grandmother's rings in a safe deposit box or the Dork Lords mom has his grandmother's rings. A family treasure is a nice ring too!</p> Heather, my heart goes out to you.
