Hit 25 earlier this year. We're going to St. John (U.S. Virgin Is) next month to commemorate the milestone.

It's nice to see that a promise made is a promise kept for so many of you men here.
My sweetheart and I are going on 17yrs married. I'm 42 and she's 40 so we'll be in it for the 'long haul'.

The counter flipped to 38 years on November 30. We both were too busy, so didn't do anything special. Stayed home, had ten Italian cypress trees planted along the new fence for a privacy barrier and wind break. It comes to the point where nothing is new. Travel is little fun as everywhere is the same as here, except people don't use as much deodorant. I don't have a passport and don't want one either, we made a tour of Canada once when a passport wasn't needed. Wife went on Social Security, signed up for another pension she has from a private employer, and enrolled in Medicare and our supplement plan. That took hours on the computer, Snafu's everywhere. Too bad we're so practical. I gave her truck an oil change, swapped in Amsoil synthetic and a Amsoil extended use filter. I sloshed the drain oil on to the blue tarp protecting the driveway, she asked me if I knew what I was doing, we argued and I became a growling bear. She asked me to clean the furnace filters, so I did and installed a set of electrostatic and carbon filters the furnace installer left off when he installed the electronic filter. I cut my hand on the sheet metal and cussed up a storm. She said maybe we needed to hire someone to change the filters, I became a growling bear. We argued. She had her washing machine repaired, somethings are vital. I hid in the office while the repairman was working. I baked two loaves of sourdough rye bread, her favorite. She refilled my wallet from her stash in the safe so if I went to the range I'd have money for lunch. Maybe it's the little things we do every day that make it work. There is a new casino nearby, maybe we'll do a crawl when the blush is off the rose and the crowds thin.

Had our child @ 18 year mark
Age 53 with a 7 year old ain't easy but it's fun. I would say the same about age 65 with 11 and 12 year old stepsons!!!
