This was our big day – thirty five years ago. I’ve had enough weddings this summer to appreciate the fact that we did things more simply back in those days. I guess we could have had a princess style wedding but we didn’t. Couldn’t afford one of those. And back then if we asked a friend to be a bridesmaid, we also were saying to them – I will provide the dress. That doesn’t seem to be the case these days. Times have changed.
Anyway, 35 years ago was a pretty exciting day. And I am glad that we made a lasting commitment to each other then intending it to last. And it has. And there is a whole lot more love, a lot deeper kind of love now than when we first started out.
This afternoon at work I received flowers – in addition to the book I bought for myself last weekend that was supposed to be my gift to myself from him. And in addition to that beautiful little laptop – which was a total surprise.
Tonight we went out for supper. Ate too much. We tried out a different restaurant – Sopranos. The food was good but our steak was definitely not medium rare. It is hard to uncook a steak but they offered to try again and got it done very nicely the second time. Leo had a small incident with his glass of wine. One shouldn’t reach over a wine glass to retrieve a dish for the waiter!
Now early to bed.
