I don't know where the years have gone, but today is our 38 anniversary! WOW! Who knew if would last this long! Barry was that skinny guy with black rim glasses an a Army uniform and I was that skinny young beauty! Ok, he was in service and I was alot skinner! We went to the NY mountains for our honeymoon and it turned out that because it was September, there was only 5 couples on their honeymoon and the place didn't gear much for the "young & in love" group at that time of the year. Now, all these years later, I think I'd love to go back and just do nothing!! We left after a few days and spent the rest of the week with my sister in NY and had a great time. Life was grand in 1970 if you were young and in love, not to mention poor! Just look how far we've come. Two kids, two grandkids, we've owned two houses and 4 cats along the way! Some years, not to mention days, have been good and some have been bad, BUT, I've always known Barry loves me and I love him, even if there are those days we don't like each other!! He will always be my rock and my biggest fan in what ever I chose to do and I try and make the most of his choices.
Today he had two choices. Go and work in the re-opened Red Cross Shelter or go to the ChallengeAir. Challenge Air is a program that takes young people on flights over the city in private planes that have special needs. Sometimes the pilots have special needs as well. The Lions have been very involved in helping out for many years and so that was what Barry chose to do today. I still have lots of cleaning up to do, but it seems to get done a whole lot faster without him under foot. I'm sure you girls can understand that!
Well, I'm off to finish the guest bathroom. I got my "guest" room finished this morning. Lots of stuff was moved to the living room, top shelves, and into Barry's office space. After all these are HIS parents!!
Hugs!
CONGRATULATIONS!!! Way to go you two! Doing anything special for dinner? Sounds like you are ready to drop from preparing for the inlaws arrival! Almost there! Try to rest some, hugs, Deb
