Lost

This christmas it will be two years since I lost my wedding ring. At first I didn't want to buy a new ring because I was holding out hope that we would find my ring, but now it's more of it just being a large expense that we cannot afford at this time. I was devasted when I lost my ring. I don't know where I lost it. The last time I distinctly remember where it was was Christmas morning at my in-laws, where I had picked it up off the dresser in the room we were sleeping in. The rest is completely foggy. I've even made up memories in regards to where the ring could have gone. We went home to Centerville UT that day, so the ring could be at Joans, or at a gas station along the way to Centerville, or somewhere around our apartment complex in Centerville, or somewhere inside the apartment. When we moved from the apartment, I searched the place up and down repeatedly and even came back once more before leaving utah to check the apartment, but I never found it. I've been able to slowly force the frustration to the back of my mind, and it doesn't hurt as much as it used to, but a couple of sunday's ago a guy got up in church and was giving a talk, and in his talk he spoke of how he lost his ring twice!! and of course, found it both times. One of the times it was even lost for a year out in a field. Then of course there is the story that Joan told me, of the girl who lost her ring when they were fishing, and everyone fasted and prayed and then went back to the river/stream or whatever where they were fishing and they found it. I find these stories so frustrating. I know they are supposed to be inspirational or something, but I just find them frustrating. Joan has even lost the diamonds in her ring several times, but found them again. I've been having dream's lately where I find the ring, but it's always in places where I know it's not, like back at college, or in my yard at home in Coulee Dam. Okay, so I guess there really isn't a point to this post, but thanks for letting me vent. I'm hoping that we will be able to get a new ring soon. I miss having it, so we will see.
