Default Putting the final pieces of the puzzle together

The planning of my move back to Italy from Mexico has taken many hours on the computer. Investigating air fares, car rental and shipping requirements for the dog who is the major problem and extra expense. He requires a special size crate, vet certification,shots and a micro chip of 15 digits implanted under his skin along with three pages of forms filled out in blue ink written in English and the language of his destination which is Paris France. They are now completed and Franca is working on finding lodging and restaurants. I am sure that they will be gourmet all the way.
When I was shopping at the open market here in Zihuatanejo a beggar woman came up to me and asked me for money .I gave her some pocket change .She then took my hands in hers and thanked me. Later in the day I noticed my wedding ring was missing. Ether she took it or I lost it somehow. I do not know. I have never removed it since the day she put it on my finger. The other day I went to one of the many silver shops in town and bought a plain replacement which I did my best to engrave. Once again I realize that the work is not the greatest and I am definitely past my prime so rather than post it on the engraving forum I felt it would be best to put it here on the Watercooler along with my newest attempt at smearing paint on canvas
Thank you for looking and reading
