In April, Michael and I will have been married 35 years. That means in January of 1975, I received my engagement ring. Last December, I noticed that the diamond seemed to wiggle a little. Afraid of losing the diamond, I put it in a jewelry box until last week when I decided to take it to a jeweler to see.
He confirmed my fears stating that he was shocked it hadn't fallen out. Almost all of the points that hold it on were all worn. . . in other words, after 35 years I wore out my ring. He took it and put a new mount in it and then
rebrushed the ring. I got it back on Thursday and it now looks as new as when I got it. I can't keep looking at it.
I know these pictures can't give the story, but it is brand new, sparkly and probably will last another 35 years!

So glad you didn't lose the diamond! That would have been sad indeed. Congrats on your marriage longevity. :)
