OFF TOPIC

Somehow my 29th wedding anniversary slipped in today/yesterday, August 6th.

Wow, how time flies by!

It doesn't seem like that long ago when I got married, but now, I'm entering in my 30th year of marriage as well as being a grandma.

Maybe I'm just getting old, lol!

  Yep girl, it is! all I can say is, Who woulda thunk it? Haha!
  
  Actually it was our 29th and therefore we're entering into our 30th year. But still...

  Thanks Brandon!
  
  That is actually the song that popped into my head when I thought about everything, thus the reason for my thread title.
  
  I'm glad you posted it.

Raising a child is akin to knowing you're getting fired in 18 years and having to train your replacement without actively sabotaging them.

Awe, Terra,

I was thinking "Terra_izer Junior" would qualify as the "grand-finale".

It's never too late!

Happy Anniversary, Terra!!

When my daughter turned 20 in June I had the same thought -- where did all the time go? I can't believe I don't even have a teenager anymore -- my "kids" are both adults! Not saying they always ACT like adults, but you know what I mean

  Jack, just so you know, they sell new ones. In fact, they can be had for, like, five bucks.

I've been in love with the same woman for 29 years. If my wife every finds out, she'll kill me!

My wife and I went back to the hotel where we spent our wedding night. Only this time, I stayed in the bathroom and cried.

My wife and I have the secret to making a marriage last. Two times a week, we go to a nice restaurant, a little wine, good food..... She goes Tuesdays, I go Fridays.

My wife will buy anything marked down. Last week she bought an escalator...

I Just got back from a pleasure trip: I took my mother-in-law to the airport.

My brother-in-law is the town drunk. Most of the time that's not so bad; but New York City?

Just think, if it weren't for marriage, men would go through life thinking they had no faults at all. :rolleyes:

Aww thanks for that compliment, Icombs! Wow! How very kind of you.

Hubby is getting a little tired of hearing people say he looks like he's got 10 years on me or asking him if he knows that he really scored with me, but I never do, haha!

Thanks again, I love to smile!

Terra

Thanks
