Happy Anniversay Baby....got ya on my mind....yah......

K, 1st of all, I wasn't thinking when I told my lovely co-worker who does our schedules that, "sure, no problem" in switching weekend days.  Like this was probably a month and a 1/2 or more ahead of time she asked me.  For some odd, or maybe subconscious reasoning or non-reasoning I forgot at that time, that this was my anniversary date.  Like HELLOO Missy!!  Are you in there??   No big deal really.  M and I pretty much celebrated our anniversary earlier this week in Vegas, then I made some yummy filet mignon last nite since I was stooopid enough to switch my work day to my anniversary, and we had our celebratory feast last nite.

It's really hard to believe that I have been married for 23yrs.  HOLY CRAP BATMAN!!  I've been with M since right before my 22nd B-Day, so a 1/2 of my life dedicated to this one man.  Yowza or HOLY SHIT..take your pick.  Like big time I'm saying.

Marriage is tough.  Anyone that sugar coats it, is either newly married or lying through their frickin teeth.  It's not so much getting used to the person's eccentricities, and not just their habits day in day out, but also trying to adjust to growth periods.  No, I'm not talking height or weight here people, tho that could be a consideration.  I'm talking like age growth and changes thru the years, changes in wants, needs, desires, etc.  Then you throw some kids into the mix and it becomes more complicated on/off forever, period.  I've discovered that it doesn't matter what age your kids are, it is always complicated in one way or another.

We've had our rough patches.  Thankfully, nothing like Tiger and his wife, but well that is fodder for another blog post. 



Life is a bitch as they say, I just want to know who "they" are before I die.  Anyhow, back to the subject more or less....we are hanging in there.  Hey, for the most part that is most xcellent.  Really and truly it is.  Maybe it isn't a Hallmark card, but in my book it is pretty damn close.

Love you babe.  Here is hoping for another 23yrs and then some.
