30 years!!! Wow, newly weds!! Congratualtions!!!  88 years for us today

Eighty-eight?


Yep 88.  I've been married to her for 44 years and she's been married to me for 44.  44 plus 44 equals 88.



When am I going to learn not to take the bait on these casts? :P

It wasn't bait...when you have been married for 44 years you tend to look at things a bit different.  When we got married, I never even consider I would live to age 44 let alone be married that long..

Douglas,
I think that I'm going to take a pass on the idea of saying to my wife: Happy anniversary dear, you know we've been married for so long that sometimes it feels like Moses officiated at our wedding. For obvious reasons, the first of which is that I don't look good in bandages.  :) ;D :D

RIP John. While on vacation July 4th 2013 in northern Wisconsin, he was ATVing with family and pulled ahead of everyone and took off at break-neck speed without a helmet. He lost control.....hit a tree....and the tree won.  He died instantly.

The one thing that you can almost always rely on research leading to, is more research.

I have to suspect you didn't say "Happy Anniversary Dear.  44 years!  Feels like 88!" :o
You probably don't look too good in bandages either.

Hopefully she has a metal disc around her finger to represent having to put up with you for 88/2 years! ;)
