I am the same way with my rings, I take it off as soon as I walk in the door, usually bc I work out when I get home and then I don't put them back on until I leave for work in the morning. I cant sleep with them on for some reason it really bugs me.

Burn to earn!went out last night. lots of Miller light and 3 shots of honey turkey. ugh, I wish I was still home in bed. How does one stay within their calorie limits and still drink?? thats a tough one for me.0 -

Oh and potential to hurt yourself or husband while sleeping :laugh:0 -
I almost never take my rings off because it seems like they only get lost when they are off your fingers! But, lifting weights means taking them off or I get blisters.
My husband takes his ring off a lot, I can't believe he hasn't lost it by now, but he takes it off for working out, yardwork, and just sitting around playing with it. I tease him that he is going to the yard trying to look single
but it doesn't bother me that he takes it off and I wouldn't be mad if he lost it, either. It's really about the relationship, my sister stopped wearing her wedding ring and it was meant to be hostile, or send a message.
oh and...
Sunday, Monday, tuesday=0 drinks! I don't think there will be any drinking tonight, either...0 -
Kat, I wear my ring constantly. I never take it off unless I'm taking a shower or going to hot yoga. Otherwise, it's on all the time. I love my ring too much to take it off!! My husband takes his ring off the minute he gets home from work. I get so angry if he forgets to wear it to work! Drives me nuts!0

Off to my "dirty Santa" party....wish me luck!0

I had a TON of drinks last night at the office holiday party. I feel like I'm going to throw up today, but I still went to my trainer. Although I asked him to take it easy on me, lol 0

Way to go, Tuffy. You're a better person than I am! I would've just skipped it all together! Hangovers are no fun 0

Gotcha.
I love jewelry and I know Kyle paid a pretty penny for my ring and I absolutely love it so I don't take it off for long periods of time. I know Kyle will wear his all the time because I bought him a ring a few years ago engraved with his Grampa's initials and the date he passed away along with the God serenity prayer on the inside because his Gramp always carried that prayer around and he never takes it off except for occasionally when he works out. Plus to me, even though the actual relationship is the important part, the symbolism of the rings is just as important. Luckily since we were together for 8 years before getting engaged Kyle knew what size to get and my ring still feels fine even when my fingers swell from too much sodium or what have you. I was just wondering though. My best friends cousin has a beautiful ring that her husband apparently spent like a years salary on and she never wore it and I just couldn't understand why if he spent all that money on her why she wouldn't wear it and enjoy it. She wears it now though, not sure what changed haha. My uncle's wife used to not wear hers because they lived in Venezuela and apparently people will take your whole finger just to get the ring, scary!
Never heard of someone allergic to platinum, weird!
Too many drinks last night but I was able to get some sleep, feel crappy today but not from the booze, still pretty sick and stuffy. So happy Kyle gets home tonight. I just hope I feel better for New York on Saturday.0 -
Having a "winter" martini because even though my wonderful fiancé will be home from work traveling, I have a really hard time sleeping when my nose is stuffed up. I hate breathing through my mouth! I also keep getting that tickle as if I'm going to sneeze buuuut then I don't and it's just so itchy and annoying!0

Okay i just have to admit to the fact I can't do wine and then vodka. I was so hungover this morning and so tired all day. Must do better. at least I was dehydrated for my weigh in.:laugh:0

Oy, I hear that. I'm on my 3rd "winter" martini and I'm feeling good haha. Still stuffy and burning eyes but I'll definitely be able to sleep and the fiancé landed and should be home soon =} I also just told my Godfather or as I've always called him, Uncle Gino, that Kyle and I are engaged. He said he couldn't believe his baby girl was getting married and that I had him in tears. I first said I hoped he could make it and he said he wouldn't miss it for the world. I teared up also. He and my Grampa were my dads, my bio father has never really been in the picture and even though they didn't have to, they filled in and did so much more than that. Those 2 along with my 2 uncles, and I really have the best uncles/men in my life. I can't wait to dance with each uncle at my wedding and just knowing they will all be there and my Gramp will be in spirit makes it that much more special. Also the fact that I've only been with 1 guy and will now be with him for the rest of my life, I mean I had 2 "relationships" in high school that were 2 months each but to me, the one that counts is Kyle and I've been with him for the last 8 years and will be with him for the rest of my life and yes he's the only guy I've ever "BEEN" with so it's a pretty great feeling.0 -
I'm so happy for you, Kat. Kyle sounds like an amazing guy and you are so happy!!!!!! Enjoy it while it lasts.....and I mean the planning the wedding part. You'll definitely enjoy your husband for the rest of your LIFE! I'm so happy for you!!! XOXO 0

Never heard of someone allergic to platinum, weird!
I have really sensitive skin plus eczema, bad combo. Weird I wore white gold on my ring finger for years with no problem and even during our engagement it wasn't too bad, but once I got the wedding band it got worse. It does make me sad that I can't wear it everyday, but what can ya do :happy:0 -
Last night we went out for dinner and some delicious Avery beers. I had....hmmm let me think....1 10oz , 1/2 10oz, 1/2 16oz, 1/2 of 3 5oz-ers, and when we got home we split another 12oz bottle, so only about 3 beers, not too bad, but BOY OH BOY where they strong!!!!
Not sure about tonight....gotta go back to the laundromat BOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!0 -
get it tattooed on?

Last night - 0 drinks for me. I cannot even tell you how long it has been since I did that. I am still hung over from my office party on Tuesday night, lol, and the thought of a drink still makes me sick. I hope I get back to normal soon!

Whoo! 1 red bull and pineapple vodka (for "motivation") turned into 2 of them and several beers.0

Thanks bgrune =} Kyle is great and I am a very, very lucky girl.
My best friend and I are getting our friendship tattoos tomorrow so I am steering clear of the booze tonight plus I don't need it since I can breathe through my nose now so I can sleep again. Head is still a bit stuffy but it's a huge improvement from the beginning of the week which also means I'll fully get to enjoy New York and all the decorations =}0 -
I lied, I'm having some wine :blushing:
So I think I'm going to set up a Special K plan for the New Year, I like their protein shakes, taste better than slim fast and I like their plain cereal as well as with the red berries. I'll also get back to working out regularly and even if I lost one pound a month, I'll be at my goal weight by the wedding =} in the meantime, tattoo tomorrow, New York Saturday, celebratory dinner Sunday, cheers :drinker:0 -

Dot I can't kiss and tell... Actually we're at snails pace. Monday night was with the same gal I shared dinner with a month back. I think we're both in sync, although I got the "step up your game" signal from her. Not gonna happen until 2012. I'll take her skiing and see. She didn't sound too keen about skinning up mountains. Chicks never do.
Ans I had 2 gin martinis on Wednesday, extra dry, extra cold, with olives. That's how I order them. Tanquerey Ten. My favorite.0 -
