Default Scary NSV!

I was just settling in for the night with Nick@Nite and 3FC when it happened. I looked down and did a double take. My wedding band and engagement ring were gone!

I panicked and starting running around like looking in the sinks, pockets, everywhere! I thought for sure they gone as I'd done laundry today. I could just see the next person opening up the washer and finding my rings inside!

So, luckily, as I retraced my steps tonight I found them. And of all places they were in the GUINEA PIG CAGE! I had given them hay a little while ago and apparently as I was fluffing some off the bale they fell off into the cage.

*WHEW*

Looks like i won't be wearing them again until I get them resized!

Wow! At least you found them... One time when I lost a lot of weight on something... may have been South Beach... I was yakking and moving my hands around and then zooom! My ring went flying off my hand and whizzed right past my friend's head... heheheheee...

Congratulations!

Glad you found your rings! I hate that panic feeling when I forget that I've taken them off and can't remember where. I've never had them so loose that they just fall off though. You must be so relieved to have found them.

That would definitely be scary, but after your blood pressure returned to normal I'm sure you were pretty happy! It's certianly not the best way to realize you've lost weight though...

I had to have mine resized this week too. I asked for a size 4 and the fools made them size 3.5. I couldn't get them on so needless to say I'm without them again for another 2 weeks.

It's a great NSV though Congrats!
