My ring

busterb · 01-20-2015, 06:13 PM

Back a few years ago, I had eye surgery at UMMC. And at pre-op A nurse told me I couldn't wear my ring. I had forgot to pull it off. So, she placed it in my bag.
I had had that ring for about 38 years and was pissed when I got home and could not find it.
So, today I had my car detailed and the guy found it.
How in hell did it get from my bag to car? Damnifino. Maybe I stopped somewhere where the lights where bright and blinking and was in my bag?

Good finding your ring. Can we have a pic please.

The lord works in mysterious ways, buster.

Finding it must have made your day.

Hey wait! Car detailed? Fancy shmancy. You going to the prom? Getting married?

@ Bruce. It's first time in about 2 years. I'm too lazy to do it. @ Fargon. The ring is a Linde star, w/patioum what ever mount. One of my late wives raised hell about it. Said "cost more than our set of wedding bands." I got another from e-bay and is a sorry repo.
Photo later, If I can work out the light.

That's great news!

I'm so glad this wasn't a Lumberjim thread -I'll admit to being a little apprehensive when I clicked..... glad you got your ring back

More to this story. About ten years back I was driving a metal post in ground for a dog feeder and lost the set out of ring. I didn't know this at time and backside of stone is dull. So I never really looked for it. Months later I went to feed dog and saw the stone. A guy I know reset it for me. True stuff.

xoxoxoBruce · 01-20-2015, 11:16 PM

What color stone, buster?

busterb · 01-21-2015, 10:37 AM

Linde Blue Star Sapphire. Man made.
