| I just spent almost 5K on an engagement ring today. |
The camera is with her out of town until next week. But I got a 1 carat, princess cut, in a platinum band. Made a friend of mine go with me to help pick it out and she's a jewelery nut and quite knowledgeable about that stuff so it's definitely a good looking ring. Now just need to find her size and get it resized for her before she gets it. |
) will be lucky if I can afford the cracker jax box.
I payed that much because she's worth it and I don't want some shitty rock all cloudy, yellow, and with inclusions. |
How bout this then....My wifes ring has one of my grandmothers stones. We had it set in a band my wife liked. It appraised for about 8k and we only paid for the gold.....I am one lucky sob!

Good deal then, not trying to knock you at all. I got a colorless SI2 1/4Ct engagement ring for my fiance for $750 (18K gold with platnum mounting). If she is worth it to you then that is all that matters. Cheers on your wedding!! |

Uh... the Pics bro... quit stalling. |
Ah yes....sooner or later Love makes fools out of all of us. I can only hope and pray that your marriage will be a long and happy one. Getting Married is the easy part...Staying Happily Married is a bit like staying on the back of a pissed off tiger going hell for broke through a jungle. Best of luck |

from:http://www.pernet.net/~inez/Old_Love_Letters.html There were some love letters So tattered and torn They were old with age And with hands had been worn. Words of love were written Upon the pages so tattered I over-looked the crumbling It was the words that mattered. Could it have been me That the words were written about? Oh, that happened many years ago And there is certainly no doubt. There were plans spoken of That never did occur I do remember such a love I remember it as though it were. I remember it as though Youth had not passed And love had reached fulfillment And forever did last. The old love letters In seclusion they lay hid Among words of memories That to me did bid. My love, my love, my only love You did bid me from the past To come and read your words Yes, the words of love that will last. The bundle of love letters In privacy had been kept In my heart I remembered them And had secretly wept. But today I opened the pages And with trembling I did read Of love words spoken to me And my heart pounded, indeed. So carefully written Were love words so sure I knew why I loved him And why the love did endure. But amidst the crumbling pages Those words do now lie For the paper had reached its end And said its last good-bye. But forever in my heart The love words will always live I will remember fondly The love he did give. Gently tucked away in my heart With the crumbling pages gone away I will always remember and smile About the lost love I found today. |
