Six Thousand Two Hundred Eleven Days (aka Happy Anniversary)



It was 6211 days (or 17 years) ago on Sunday September 30 that I became the life partner of my very best friend and champion.  It has become my most precious and cherished friendship.  We are partners in every sense of the word - in love, in laughter, in pain and in sorrow.

We have been through so very much together that it is truly impossible recall the trials and tribulations in this or any forum.  It is also impossible to enumerate or put into words the sheer joy it has been to be my husband's girl companion; his wife.  I continue to daily be amazed by how much I can love another human being as much as I do cherish my husband.  It continues to amaze me that with each passing obstacle we only get stronger as a married couple and best friends.

I thank Jehovah for sending me such a tender heart and amazing human being with which to share my life.  It has been my honor having been invited to share this life with you, my dearest husband.  Thank you for these wonderful days we have spent as husband and wife.  I cherish each and every moment of our walk together.  I love you today more than I ever have.

Happy anniversary, my love.  Happy anniversary.  My heart is and will forever be yours.

My title is safe!

Clutz.  Yep that's what I am.  And continue to be.  And my title of utmost clutz is safe for a long while after this one.

This is the girl who the Wii Fit asked "Do you trip when you walk?"..... Ouch!  Insulting but funny.

And then I decided I'd better eat my avocado before it was no good.  Fast forward to three hours and four stitches later (it could have taken four more but doc said it'd be truly unnecessary) , I finished the other half when I got back from the ER.  Funny thing though.  They came in and identified me by name and offered me a Percocet.  For a cut finger.  Yikes!  Obviously I didn't need one and declined.  It was discovered that due to their new software, the other ER doc put the medicine in for the wrong patient.  Scary stuff hospitals are!  Good thing they ask you before you take those pills.

So while I heal, I'm thinking perhaps I should not be allowed to handle any sharp objects or go on any walks anytime soon.  I don't know that the pocketbook can afford me to.

Hope all is well in your corner of the world.  Winter is approaching and we haven't even gotten to the first day of Fall according to the calendar yet.  But it is definitely coming.  Who knows what it'll bring.  Cold and snow for sure - but in what amounts and for how long remains a mystery.

Take care of each other.  Talk to you soon.
