*****heavy sigh*****
And then there were 3.
S18 just left. I'm emotionally spent.
AND, because you can't even make this stuff up.... Xh was here to help him move. After I came home from work, we were all sitting in living room talking.
A little background: during my "in house S" with xh, one of the things that mysteriously disappeared, was my W ring. Out of my jewelry box. Nothing else.
Yeah. He stole it. (Among other things during that time). Of course, I asked him about it. He lied. He said he hadn't seen it.
So, as we were talking, Xh asked If I remembered something about the old house. There were beautiful hardwood floors throughout. The one room still had some carpet. Xh never let me pull it up.
I said yes, I remember. He then told me that he pulled the carpet up after I left. And as he was telling me, he reached into his pocket, and guess what he had????? Yeah.... My wedding ring.
He didn't specify how he found it or where it was, no story attached. In fact, now that I think of it... He never said the words "your ring was in the carpet" or anything close to that. Hmmmm.
He said he hoped it was ok that he gave it to me. He said he hoped I wasn't angry that he held onto it for all these years after the house was sold, and waited to give it to me now.
I kind of got emotional....he apologized. He said, "I'm sorry! I didn't mean for it to make you sad! I thought you might be excited to cash it in for some cha ching!"
I said, "yeah, because that's EXACTLY what I've always been about. Cha ching. Ummm, have you met me?"
He laughed, looking embarrassed.
And here I sit....with my W ring. Now I have 2 that mean absolutely nothing.
I'm still processing my anger. It's still there. I'm coming up with a plan for myself, and for a Christmas this week.
Life is too short. This is stupid. I'm going to get to gettin'!!!
Look out, world..... I don't know what that is ^^^^^^^^^. But when I find out? Yeah. It's gonna be MAGIC.
