August 27th

Today my parents are celebrating their 45th wedding anniversary!  Though their marriage hasn't been a perfect one, their commitment to one another has taught me a lot and their relationship continues to fascinate me.  Can you imagine being with the same person for 45 years!?  I know I can't at this point in my life.  My parents have somehow managed to make it work through thick and thin, and for that I applaud them.  I can't wait until their 50th.  I'm gonna throw them a big anniversary party.

A huge and happy congrats to your parents.  A long marriage is more rare than a any precious stone in the universe.  You are a lucky lady to have parents that know how to deal with life's challenges, and not run away from difficulties.  Knowing you as I do, I do see their strength in you.

Aw!  Thanks Rick!  I hope so too, but you know how cynical I am about the whole idea of marriage these days.  *Sigh*  That reminds me, I need to go buy a another gift this weekend...

Hey Jen.  Congrats to your parents.  I can't imagine spending that much time in a relationship with any one person either.  I love this quote from my dad:

Being with someone else should be twice as good as being by yourself and being by yourself should be really good. 

-Doug Allgood

To me those are words to live by.  I'm still working on it being "really good" by myself.  Amazingly, It's getting there.  I feel pretty good.  If I would just make time to give my apartment a good scrubbing, I think all would be right with the world.
