Priceless

[Pawsitive Thinking]

I had a stone put back into my engagement ring last week. The original ring cost £17 many years ago and the repair cost me £15 - still this cheap little ring is priceless to me!

What is priceless to you?

Aside from people..... But, if you mean material things I would have to say that photos are priceless to me. Years ago my SIL's house burnt up in a fire. She said the only things she couldn't replace were her photos. I know that looking at old photos can take me to a special place and that can't be bought with any amount of money. Good thread!

Everyone knows my philosophy of "people first". That being said, I still have a little spoon that someone gave me as a gift for my son when he was born. It isn't silver but it's still precious to me. The Disney character Goofy is on the handle and I still use it. It's in my flour cannister and whenever I need to spoon flour, it takes me back to when my son was just a little guy 40 years ago. Makes me tear up just thinking about it.

Sorry - should have said excluding pets and people

Aside from my cats, I'd have to say my daughter. She is my miracle kid after surviving brain cancer at the age of 16. She will be 32 in March and has been cured (according to the ACS).

Material wise? My Nanny's wedding ring which I hold near and dear. After my aunt died (she had all of Nanny's jewelry as well as alot of her own) it was the only thing I got. You could've knocked me over with a feather!!

Pam, may I suggest you scan all your precious photos and put them on a dvd which you can keep in a safe place like a deposit box at the bank or a relative's house. That way even if you lose the originals you still can reprint them. Works for love letters etc too
