More Odd Things from My House


I did not take a very good picture of this ring - or at least on that does it justice as it is majestic!  It was Michelle's grandmother's ring.  After she passed Michelle got her jewelry and I admired this ring and so Michelle gave it to me.  Most people probably would not thought much about giving it away - I know it was not a family heirloom -but I have a sneaky suspicion that Michelle knew what she was doing.  I am sure see saw the look in my eyes from the moment I had it in my fat little fingers.  I have cherished it from day one.  It never fit me but I used to wear it on a string around my neck.  It has even traveled across the country with me and still sits to this day atop my dresser.  You can ask Matt - I am sure he has seen it every time he was ever visited.  Plus he is so good he never even asked any questions.  Guess it just made sense to him that I had a ring like this.  It really does not take much.  I do not need a lot in this world which is why sometimes I get so frustrated.  Just the littlest sparkle in the world and it can keep me going for years and year of joy.  I mean if it takes so little then why does it seem like I ask for so much.  Ah who knows.  Anyway to the person going through my shit someday - you can return this ring to Michelle and let her know I loved every minute of having it.
