A Glorious Day

In just a couple more days it will be our 9th anniversary. We've been together for 17 years but married for 9 years. We were actually married on a Friday the 13th. The weekend we got married there was a wicked blizzard which only lasted for that weekend. We had a very small intimate wedding at a United church. Present were only us, our daughters, my sister, my father (as witnesses) and the minister. We then spent the weekend at the Casino Niagara in Niagara Falls. We had discussed marriage many times over the years. We had been together for 8 years when I finally said "Ok, lets do it". I'm glad we did. It's nice being married. It's nice having that one person you can always count on. Hubby is my very best friend. I think I would be a little lost without him at this point. I've always been ok with the small wedding because to me it's not about the big expensive wedding it's about the marriage which follows the wedding. So far ours has been pretty good. We've discussed having a big bash on a landmark anniversary. The whole renewing the vows thing. Maybe that will be next year on our 10th. Or maybe not until our 20th. It will probably all depend on finances. Who knows, maybe we'll never do it at all. There have been years that we have both completely forgotten our anniversary. When we realized, we laughed our asses off. This year it seems Hubby really has it on his mind. For the last week or so, he has been very attentive and buying me all kinds of little things he knows I really want. He's even had these romantic inclinations! Now what the heck can I do for him? I'm at a loss.
Today is a gorgeous sunny day. It's still a little chilly, but who cares, the sun is shining and the snow is melting. We went to our cozy little greasy spoon restaurant for brunch. It was delicious as always.
And finally something worth picking up from the Freecycle site, free firewood! Now if we can just find a way of picking it up since Hubby no longer has his work truck here, sigh.
Well, I'm off to enjoy the rest of this glorious day. Don't forget to turn your clocks ahead!
