NSV and a new errand to run...

So, yesterday I was doing my laundry (yes, ladies, some married men do their own) and while I was picking some up out of the basket, my wedding ring fell off my finger. It didn't get pulled off; it just fell off. :D So, now I have a new errand of getting my ring resized. That is a great errand to have. :woot:

That's such a great feeling!! Congrats on your weight loss! I only have one suggestion....don't resize yet! I quit wearing the rings on my right hand right away for fear of losing them. Wedding ring still fit because as a child I broke my finger at the joint above the ring so it's a little bigger and helped to hold it on. Anyway, it got too loose, took it in to resize and didn't get it small enough, don't know if it was cold/hot that day or what happened but sized it tight and when I got it back it still twirls like crazy!! My jewelers suggestion was to get a spacer or just put a little medical tape on the back till you lose all the weight. Congratulations again, and keep up the good work!

That's great - both that you do your laundry and that the ring fell off! I just bought a ring . . . and am wearing it on my pinky . . . until I can start moving it across my hand (I'm easily amused). Keep up the great work!.

My wedding rings no longer fit my hand whatsoever, they slide right off. So I have it on my right hand, but it's too big there also.

I'm afraid if I resize it now, I may need to resize it again.. and due to warranty, the only place I can resize mine is a couple hours away.. and who knows how much it'll cost B)

Mine is getting there too...that is awesome!

Hey how did your wife convince you to do the laundry? I would like to work on that with my husband! :heh:

"Hey how did your wife convince you to do the laundry?"

It wasn't her, it was my mom. My mom got sick (almost literally) of washing my football uniforms, so she mandated I learn how to do my own laundry. Between her and the military I learned perfectly how to do my own laundry and cook for myself. Truth be told, I actually now prefer I do both for myself. It works for my wife, as she does the kids and her laundry (enough of a job) and she doesn't have to worry about cooking for me, especially since I get home about 2 hours after the kids eat dinner.

Thanks everyone for the kind words!

my husband does his own laundry too. he too is a military man, and even folds all his shirts in 6" squares and makes the bed super tight.

Congrats on the NSV!
