Not quite as full of youth, but still hearts full of love and dreams!
Over the years we have accepted each other’s differences. He is not a coffee or tea drinker and I am not a morning person! He loves just about every vegetable there is and I love beef,chicken,seafood, and desserts. We do both love chocolate, though I may eat a tad more than he does.
He is very organized and I am ….. Not! He is whiz at numbers, they make my brain hurt! He likes his music a little louder and rockier, but there is a lot of music we agree on as well.
The list could go on and on about differences and similarities. What is important though is that we both still agree on our commitment to each other and on looking forward to what the next 25 years bring!

I will keep that in mind. Too bad you can’t use plastic knives to cut things, for there may have been no stabbings in our marriage BUT I have stabbed myself before with knives. Thats why cooking is dangerous!

I tell Ken that all the time. He says the same to me. He jokes that I’m going to successfully poison him with organic food (30+ years as a cop brought on a junk food habit). I continue to tell him that I would never poison him. That’s way too much trouble. If he pisses me off that badly, I will just shoot him…with one of his many weapons. 😆
We’ve been together for nearly a decade and have known each other since 1992. There’s been plenty of time for violence and none has occurred. We bark but, we never bite.

Maybe Ken needs one of those smart guns, that only fire when he’s the one holding it.
But that’s great you’ve never had violence. Same here. We may have thought a few violent things a few times, but we’ve always managed to settle things with words.

My wife wants me to tell you that she thinks she has a lot in common with you. She’s not a morning person, either. And she likes coffee, and good coffee, not the cheap stuff. So she’s high-maintenance, like you, when it comes to coffee.
If you guys ever do come out here, there is a street fair in nearby Palm Springs that my wife says she’ll take you to, if you’re interested. The people of Palm Springs are a little out-of-the-mainstream, so you might find it entertaining.

How we met is like a Hallmark movie. My friend from Pa. fell in love with a guy in Indiana, while she was in Indiana for college. After college they married and she wanted me to be a bridesmaid. Brad was one of the groomsmen. I flew to Indiana for the wedding, the weekend of New Year’s. Met Brad at the rehearsal dinner and …….. we were married the following December. 🙂
