The husband and I recently celebrated 37 blissful (read – we haven’t killed each other yet) years of marriage.
.
.
And because he’s a sweetie, a bouquet of flowers was delivered.
.
.
And to my most divine pleasure, it contained colors other than green.
.
.
Required cheesy old photograph of the happy couple.
.
.
And yes, along with the lovely flowers was a platypus.
.
.
Because after 37 years? He gets me.

River's world.....

It’s so funny, every time I get a green bouquet I thank him profusely while subtly hinting a little color would be nice. He told me this time he wanted to change things up.

Husband takes over my office teleworking, hogs the bandwidth and covers my desk with paperwork. He also has a space heater going full blast and I melt upon entry.

Before you married him did you know he was a collector of useless things?!?!?

Ha! He’s gotten very tired of my snap happy finger over the years. And if memory serves, we were on the dance floor and 3 sheets to the wind in that pic.

Even better, 3 sheets to the wind and dancing like you think (and look) like your on Saturday Night Fever. When in reality, you are barely moving and laughing for no reason! Lmao

I’m a horrible dancer and only get on the floor when intoxicated.

Happy Anniversary!! Glad you haven’t killed each other. Honestly, that’s our line, so maybe it’s not as obscure of a thought.

If I’ve learned anything from the pandemic’s forced hibernation… it’s that it will either kill or strengthen a marriage. We’re both breathing and ambulatory so I call that a win.

Happy Anniversary! I love seeing old photos. You both look so happy. When was the last time you saw a real platypus?

I don’t think I’ve seen a live platypus! And the photo was taken in the last century. God, I feel old.

Maybe when the pandemic is under control you should travel to Australia and see a real one!

Happy anniversary! Thirty-seven years of marriage is a feat of endurance and a triumph of love. One rarely sees such long marriages anymore.
By contrast, I’ve been divorced 43 years 😉

Thanks. People ask how we’ve done it and I’m never really sure. Love, respect and a whole lotta patience.
