It's our wedding anniversary today so it's kind of cool we have a bunch of dates lined up this week. And although my hubby jokes (I think) that he's been married so long, he no longer looks both ways before crossing the street, we are happy.
A co-worker asked how many years we've been married. I told her "Just 6." And she responded, "Don't say 'just 6' -- that's a lot compared to some people!"
What's our secret? I told her, "Well, Jim accepted years ago that I am a whack job. And just last week, I accepted it, too."
I love that man!

Why take life too seriously?! There are things that happen every day that make me smile. Sometimes it's a question or story from my son. Sometimes it's a quirky thing heard over the cubicle wall. Many times it's dysfunctional things we say or do at family gatherings. Life happens. Let's enjoy it!

Congrats on the day the bliss "officially" began!
A great post indeed - in all the years I've known you two I've always been inspired by the way you two look at each other - the ability to say so much without saying a word.
Hey, acceptance is half the battle right? I think you balance your whack-dom with a healthy dose of compassion and a cheerful spirit - so that's good!
Seriously though, I found this quote a few years back and have always found it to be true.
~ Belief consists in accepting the affirmations of the soul; unbelief, in denying them. Ralph Waldo Emerson
Short blog, huh? Too busy getting ready for all those hot "dates" with your wonderful hubby of six years! Congratulations! I know you two have been through hell & high water... sure glad you stuck it out! You're a great, fun couple. Best wishes from us!
