3 weeks ago I ordered a new wedding band for my engagement ring. There was nothing wrong with my old band except that 11 years ago when I first got it I was just looking for the least expensive band I could get (after possibly overspending on the engagement ring itself and our wedding.)
So my fiance and I went to Kay Jewelers at the mall and got the least expensive bands we could. Except I had forgotten my engagement ring so I never got to try them together before I bought it.
And of course I've HATED it for the past 10.5 years.
So I finally felt like I needed to reward myself with something special after the past couple of years of hard work so I ordered a custom band to match my engagement ring exactly.
(no diamonds just a platinum/gold band with a profile that matched my engagement ring)
I brought it home today and it's PERFECT.
I don't know how it came up but my husband said, "How much did you spend on that?"
So I told him honestly, "I'd prefer not to say."
ASIDE: There are a lot of times being the sole breadwinner is incredibly hard, stressful and anxiety inducing. Sometimes it seems completely unfair that my husband has NO interest in our financial affairs whatsoever.
This was not one of them.
Because he just laughed and said, "Kids, that means momma paid too much."
Which is possibly true.
But it's beautiful.
Doesn't matter, you like it
