Happy Anniversary to us!!

This evening, over dinner, I realized that it was our anniversary. Ed and I have been together 25 years. The reason it nearly slipped by us is that we don't celebrate a date per se . . . our anniversary is the first Monday in November (like Election Day is the first Tuesday in November).

Giveaway?? . . . no, I'm afraid there'll be no giveaway. I gave away my heart 25 years ago, LOL!! I'll leave you to pick over the parts and pieces that are left (but bear in mind, they're 25 years older, too).

After dinner, we went to bed: Ed promptly fell asleep and I lay listening to classical music on the radio, composing this post in my head, until I fell asleep too. Four hours later, we woke up (it was only 11:00 p.m.). We celebrated with a dish of Edy's Swiss Orange (orange sherbet with dark chocolate chips) and Milano cookies.

  8. Thank you, Joseph . . . the phrase "we're history" doesn't sound quite right, though, LOL!!

    In 25 years, I'll be 79 years old!! (That's a scary thought) . . .

  10. Sweet Joseph, you're not blonde, you're redhead (I've seen your pics, remember??) . . . LOL!! . . . Yes, Ed and I have been through a lot together (good and not-so-good), but everybody experiences that . . . it's just nicer to share it with someone.

    No, you didn't say we were history . . . that was just me, twisting words around. I love the play of language, the language of play, you know. Besides, now I think we'll MAKE history instead of BE history, LOL!!

    (what if I surprise you and learn Dutch??)
