Remember what I said this time last year?

I thought there wouldn't be a 28th anniversary, but here it is!

Was a good one, 2. Nothing big. We stayed home and had a BBQ with my D and her friends.

Newbies (especially Uncomfortably Numb): Don't put stock in what the WS says while in the fog. I thought I'd never hear my W say ILY and really MEAN it, ever again (after all, before D-day, she hadn't said it 2 me for more than 8 years).

The fog will clear. Give it the time required.

Yes, he is, and I don't even think he gets cranky when you tell him.

Of course, it's 27 for me in March, so I probably ought to keep this real low key.

2long,
well done,
Are you willing to give lessons?

I hope all the other stuff is going well for you too. The house, work, and I hope you get more time to read.

Hip Hip Horay !!

I'm glad you made the big 28.

Do I get invited to your 50th?

Mel:

THAnks!

SS: 50th? I'll be older than DIRT by then! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Eek!]" src="images/icons/shocked.gif" />

(logged in as Q because MB kept logging ol' 2long out when I'd hit any button!)

Got to get this stuff filled in and go back in the house in a few.

Or get the scope out and gee whiz Mars or something... ...it's the coldest night of the year here tonight! Am I out of my tree or something??

Yeah,
You are, but that's one of the reasons we like you.

Coldest night here too. Snow all around on the mountiains. Rain here the last few days. I wondered how the house did in the rain, because I remember you were concerned about some of the new wood not being done right.

Don't freeze.

sigh......I wish we had a real winter. It was 70 degrees here today and DH went out on his motorcycle. I told him I would go with him tomorrow if it's still warm. He is always nagging me to go riding with him but I shore hate messing up my princess hair! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="images/icons/grin.gif" />

Hey Mel,
What would you give me not to drag that other thread of yours out again.

You know the one, don't pretend you don't.

Was watching one of those news shows this morning where they look back on 2003 and note the memorable events.

When I look back, I realize that the most significant for me is that 2003 is the year that my W may have finally ended her R with RM.

All the other events of the year pale in comparison 2 that possibility. Not certainty, yet. Possibility.

But it's significant.

-ol' 2long
P.S. If all goes well in a couple days, I won't have time 2 post much for a good chunk of 2004. If you don't see me around, try not 2 be 2 alarmed. I'll be having fun! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="images/icons/wink.gif" />

2long,
Just make sure you continue to meet her needs for affectionm, conversation, SF, and so on. You don't want her to get lonely now, do you?

I've been following the news and waiting too. Do you have any inside stories on the seemingly failed probe from europe?

I bet things are much more exciting on your end than the news portrays.

heres to success in 2004. May both the probes be successful, and may your marriage continue to improve at a steady rate. May you continue to get better looking too. (2 out of three?)

Doc: "How long has this been going on?"

Guy: "How long has what been going on?"
