I'm feeling much better today, thanks to the magic of a good night's sleep.

I've been thinking a lot about the loss of the ring. . . I don't believe there was any kind of "message" involved in it breaking -- but I do feel that some energy has shifted. It's not something I can verbalize, but it's there. Maybe the grief I've been carrying built up in it, and when it broke, all that sadness and anger was released.

I am going to replace it with something more resilient and elegant. That ring wasn't intended to be a long-term commitment ring. It was a $2 impulse purchase from a spindle rack in a gift shop during our vacation. He gave me hemtatite because, he said, it would help me ground when he wasn't there. When I first put it on, I put it on my right hand. I'm certain that if he had lived, he would have eventually bought me something else, something more formal, but this is what I had.

In a little while I'm going to call my friend at the hospital, and hopefully will be able to talk. I have friends coming over this afternoon and into the evening, so I can't go visit. I'm planning to go tomorrow. Your continued prayers are appreciated.

My house is festive right now, and I need to go soon and start making [livejournal.com profile] _storyteller_'s special chicken-cheese-crescent rolls for snacks.

p.s. Resilient and elegant sounds lovely.

I just bought an every-day ring; I'll show you when I come!
