48 Years?

How did all those years go by so quickly? When I woke yesterday I found an anniversary card on the table with the words Loretta Maye. I was surprised because our anniversary is today rather than yesterday. Except...Earl thought it was yesterday. We both got a chuckle out of that. The older we get the more muddled things become in our minds. Probably not a good sign. So...since he thought it was our anniversary yesterday we decided to celebrate it by going to the Olive Garden for dinner. We had the most delightful young woman as our waitress. We didn't tell her it was our anniversary, but she treated us as if we were celebrating something.

Where do all those years go? It seems like yesterday we stood before that judge in Jacksonville, Florida and said "I Do". Little did we know at the time what we were agreeing to do for years and years. The many good times diminish the not so good times many times over. Lately there seems to be an increased tenderness and consideration for one another. Difference of opinions are forgotten quickly. I guess what I am feebly trying to express is we seem to be having a mature honeymoon period. I am going to work at it to make it last.

Ok...new subject....Lizzie, I hope you have gotten a clean bill of health and are home from the hospital. Please let us know what is going on.

It was good talking to all my sisters yesterday. We should do it more often.

I hope you all have a wonderful Thanksgiving. It is my favorite holiday when I can be with my family so this year it isn't so favorite for me. I love you all.
