Congradulations To The Happy Couple


Yes, it has been 20 glorious years of marriage, a milestone,
a miracle, a great feat of patience and achievement, a triumph
over the odds.

ok, it wasn't that hard. We needed each other to surmount life's
challenges and we worked together to become good parents and
good people. Bring on the next twenty!

Happy Anniversary, Dave

It's All About Me


Dave told me that I wouldn't have anything to blog about if he
wasn't so easy to make fun of. It's true, Dave is a basketful of
absurdities. But maybe it's time to poke a little fun at myself.

Although I can never hope to compete with Dave's nutty nature,
I have my own irregular idiosyncracies:

~~I never completely finish my drink. I almost always
abandon a quarter inch of liquid at the bottom.
~~ I also never completely finish my meal. I leave behind something,
a piece of crust, a last bite, a perfectly good scrap.
~~I cannot tolerate certain sounds: clicking pens, smacking gum,
toe tapping, drumming/fiddling, whistling....I despise these things
with the bottom of my irritated heart!
~~I can't take a bath without bubbles (I don't like to see myself)
~~I can't eat just one piece of candy
~~I have to clean the kitchen BEFORE I cook
~~I never feel guilty for sleeping in...ever
~~I always do what I say I'll do, if I know I won't do it I never
say that I will
~~I'm jealous of how beautiful my sisters are
~~If I had one wish it would be the ability to go back in time
with the knowledge I have now
~~If I have one realization it is that I'm finally a grown-up
