I haven't worn a wedding ring (or any other jewelry) in several years.
For one, I got it caught more than once at work and we decided it wasn't worth the potential danger
Also, as you can see I have dupuytren's contracture. There are supposed to be procedures to help but it doesn't hurt and I've been living with it for 25 or thirty years. Biggest hinderance is getting into tight areas to work.
What has bit me more than once is impact drivers slipping off of screw head and doing damage.
We will be married for 49 years this coming January. I suppose Pam will keep me around even without a ring.
