Mine's on. W has never worn hers consistently, due to this weird fixation MIL and SIL gave her about hurting the kids with it (ladies, you might give me some opinion on whether this is actually a concern or not for mothers of young children). But of course W always wore it when she left the house.

When W told me about her A, I noticed then that she had started recently before going out without it. I kept mine on, but wondered why. Then a few weeks later when we had a big fight over OM and I moved out for 4 days, I left it at home. (Left it in the same jewelry box W had left hers in, right next to it.)

But it never felt right to not have it. My fingers kept moving to where it was, and it just wasn't working. I actually went to the house on Monday when no one was there and got it, and put it back on. I have had it on since. I can't say that W's noticed, but my feeling is that it is a non-verbal, non-confrontational way to show her that I'm not giving up.


Out with the old, in with the new 2006 will be better than 2005
