The life and times of a happily married couple in Ohio.
24 Years and Still Going Strong
California Girl and I really enjoyed celebrating our 23rd anniversary this past weekend. It doesn’t’ seem like we have been together 28 years. We are proud that we’ve made our marriage last that long. And that it’s still a relationship of love rather than a relationship of convenience. I’m not sure what life would be [...]
It’s late; but I wanted to wish all of the mothers out there a happy Mother’s Day. The Boy is home and The Girl sent a card (which we received on Saturday) so California Girl heard from both kids. I’ve been working on a special project for California Girl that I think she appreciates; so [...]
January Had an occasion to do the Snoopy Dance because of something that happened at work. Took a cool photograph of California Girl with the flowers she received at The Girl’s last senior night. We reviewed the proofs of The Girl’s senior photographs and made our selections. It was a bit discomforting how rapidly her [...]
We were busy attending some of The Girl’s graduation events so we didn’t have the opportunity until yesterday to celebrate our 22nd anniversary. I’ve had the time of my life for the past 27 years. We’ve parented two wonderful children; but we still have a fabulous time even when it’s just the two of us. We ate [...]
It’s getting late; but I wanted to wish all of the moms out there a happy Mother’s Day. I made sure that both my mom and California Girl know how much that are appreciated. The Girl did not have a soccer game today which is a rare occurrence for a Sunday in May so I [...]
January Did a lot of tinkering with the number of posts on the front page to speed up page load times. Finally I wrote a plugin that shows all posts published in the last seven days on the home page. Created and published our favorite HNT photo post of the year. February Got California Girl [...]
Today is our 21st wedding anniversary! I am blessed to have met such a magnificent woman. After 26 years, she is as much a part of me as an arm or an internal organ. We generally focus on the present; but today is a good day to reflect on the past. It’s been an amazing [...]
I would like to wish California Girl as well as moms everywhere a happy Mother’s Day. I just gave California Girl her “for my wife” card. And, as they have done on many occasions, the kids made California Girl a cake and one of their homemade cards. Plus, we wished my mom a happy Mother’s [...]
We had a good Valentine’s Day weekend. We didn’t go anywhere on Saturday night because The Girl was going to a school dance. We didn’t mind staying in. In a couple of years she will be away in college and we’ll be able to go out whenever we want. And, since we were staying around [...]
January The Girl got her learner’s permit and The Boy earned a scholarship to college. It really started to sink in how different things are going to be in a few years months. February Celebrated the three year anniversary of Married In Ohio. The Boy wrestled in his final wrestling meet and perhaps the last [...]
