My husband was very sweet. He didn't want me to order a ring. He wanted to buy it. I'm sure it was a man thing but I appreciated it. I didn't want to spend a lot of money because I'm cheap. Y'all knew that was coming right? It just doesn't make sense to spends hundreds or thousands of dollars on a temporary ring. Or to go crazy and get some bigger one when I love my ring. So $50 was my budget! Yes, a $50 wedding band. That's all I needed. Timeline was before this coming Monday. I leave for Fort Lauderdale on Monday and I don't want to be caught down there without my wedding ring on. Can you imagine the gossip? Trouble at home? Sabrina's got a her groove back? Yep, wanted to avoid all of that. The good thing is my ring size is standard now. I went from a size 9 to a 7 and they carry that size in stores. Yippee!
My husband took off searching after work yesterday while I went home to take care of the kids. He stopped at 5+ jewelers searching for the perfect temporary ring. I would receive picture text from him and he sent me some beautiful rings. I almost fell for it. I almost said, 'GET IT! That one with all the sparkle!!!" But I showed restraint. Nope, obviously not within our $50 budget.
Finally, he found it. A basic temporary wedding ring. Something that can be placed on my finger and hold my other's ring place until I can put my ring back on. A ring that will remind me that I have a commitment to the man that I love. To remind me of our vows and promises to one another. A symbol of those commitments and respect that I have for my husband and our marriage. And a big red flag for my husband's peace of mind that says, "Step off this girl is married!"
It's simple 4.00mm wedding band. The best part it was only .28 over budget! Which included a resizing warranty! So, he came home with my new ring got down on one new in front of Ethan & Lorelei and asked me to stay married to him. I told him I would have to let him know. lol
