21 years ago, today, he asked me out in the first 5 minutes we'd met. Here we still are, together, so this TFTD is for my Rog for loving me and putting up with me.

Happy Anniversary, honey!

Happy Anniversary kat and Rog! Ours will be 27 years on March 23rd. Over half my life...... Never thought I would stay married that long.....it's been a trip, hasn't it?

You're a good man, Rog! And you got a good Womon too!

I can understand him loving you kat, but how does he put up with you?

LOL, very funny, Amos, I am not sure! Thanks, Sorcha and Congrats!

CORRECTION: 21 years ago he married me. It was 22 years ago, on April Fool's Day, he asked me out! Now what does that tell ya!? **BG**

HEY! NO FAIR!! I wanted to get married on April Fools Day, but the parties of the second part (Brian, parents, preacher, etc) wouldn't agree. They wouldn't let me have "Roll in My Sweet Baby's Arms" played at the wedding either!

(excerpt--"Your mother and father, they never did like me
They drove me away from the door
And if I had my way,
I would never go back there anymore......)

Congrats, kat. Roger is a heck of a guy. It was a pleasure to meet him. It was even more of a pleasure to see how much he cares for you.

Love to you both,

Allan

Sorch:

That's not the verse that had 'em spooked. It was the one that goes:

"I ain't gonna work on the railway
I ain't gonna work on the farm;
Gonna lay round the shack 'til that mail train comes back
An' roll in my sweet baby's arms!"

In-laws can understand alienation, but they won't stand for non-production!

Love at first site... a dream for most, but rarely a true blessing.

Happy Anniversay to you and Rog! Seems like a Love Match made here on earth. Almost like going to heaven I imagine. You both are very lucky.

Kat.

I'm sure it is *BG*, but you can't have anything that great without working at it. Hats off to you too Rog for doing your part to keep kat happy!

At the moment, it is all debatable, Wdy...he is failing miserably, today!**BG**

Neither one of us is an easy person to live with. I think the best thing we can say about each other is that we have complete and total freedom to be who we are; unfortunately that is not always conducive to being happy.

Gnu was very profound when s/he posted "Love at first site... a dream for most, but rarely a true blessing. " (my emphasis)

Don't get me wrong, I am grateful and, most of the time, happy, but there is lots of room for improvement!*smile*

Nothing that is too easy is worth having! Many congratulations to you both Kat and here's to the next 25(sorry no parole).

So.... you wrote "s/he" when referring to gnu. In a way, that's kinda neat. I consider that as a compliment. It's kinda like, if you have read some of my posts and still didn't know my gender, I have come across in my writing as a person only, no gender. Thanks.

Jeez, Kat, if you'd killed him, you'd be out by now *BG*.Congratulations to both of you for an increasingly rare, and in my opinion the most difficult of, accomplishments.....that of having enough love, humour and flexibility to live succesfully with another person over years.
