but it is
we will be married 30 years tomorrow
we will be having a very quiet and private day at home
hahahahaha
bernie and i have been talking........
we've come sooooooooo far
we've gone through soooooo much together
and yet it doesn't SEEM like 30 years
I remember at 17 years...saying wow......it doesn't SEEM that long
but it is now 30 and still doesn't seem that long
It isn't a common thing to be so in love
that you would rather live in a hovel with the person you love
then a palace with anyone else--- and have it last.
but that is how we are. And that's how we've been for 30 years.
we would give up anything to be together
we have not had it easy at times
but we stuck it out and we stuck together
we now live in our little stone house in the woods with our cats and chickens..
we board our farm animals until we can move to our own farm
we live a quiet life of happiness together
we've forged something that is ours alone
I can't begin to put it into words
even though there are times as you all know when I get mad at him
and he gets mad at me, the core is untouched.
I still look at him and get shivery,
I wait for the sound of his key in the door when he comes home from work
he still can't sleep if I am not there
he tells me that on the rare occations when I am not here when he gets home,
that the house is so empty, as if the very life is gone.
tomorrow is 30 years of life, love and shared experience
I am not stupid
I do know just how very blessed I am
we both are
til next time
vi
who wishes you all a love like this for forever

Happy anniversary to you and Bernie! Your post is so sweet, I'll make hubbie read it -- I hope we're like you guys after 30 years...
ReplyDeleteCongratulations! Your blog entry really touched me. John can't sleep when I'm away either (well, it doesn't help to have a cat wandering around the house caterwalling because she can't find me, either!)
ReplyDeleteMay the next 30 years be as happy as the last:)
PS: I just previewed this and see that it says I am "Princess Potato Pancake" - long story I won't go into right now. I'm actually KnottyKnitter from KR. I have lots of names:)
