A Year Through My Eyes

Grandmas Ring

Day 69
I was quizzed today whilst giving a collegue a lift to work as to why I wear the rings I wear.....he was surprised that I had an answer for each of them, and none of the responses were 'becasue it looked pretty'. This ring was my late grandmothers engagement ring, we found it in a box of dress jewellery a couple of years ago by chance when my uncle was going to give it all to charity. My uncle had never seen her wearing it, and thats probably becasue the band was so worn down it had nearly disappeared. Thankfully, my uncle got it repaired and gave it to me for my 21st, and I pretty much never take it off.

What you cant see are my grazed knuckles.....not entirely sure how I got them, most probably something to do with a rugby ball or a trying to keep up with 8 yr olds at work.....who are generally launching rugby balls at me. One of the perks of the job.
