As I said a number of times, I have been married for almost half a century and I realize many people can't seem to find happiness with their relationship. I have a few tips that have worked for me. This morning like all mornings I went for my 2 mile walk/jog. I make my wife breakfast every day...

My wife wanted to go down the steps to the beach today. That is easy for some even though it is 176 steep steps. She didn't make it all the way but I am very proud of her for trying. Because of MS she can't move her right leg at all, not even a 16th of an inch and can't take a step without a...

I just went into a supermarket for eggs. There was only one person ahead of me and it was a man. The salesclerk and the man were talking about another cashier and how slow she was. In the meantime a woman came up on line in back of me and she said to the guy behind the register: "Hey. lets...

I have very little patience. The VA tells me that is because of PTSD. I don't know. But I really don't like to wait in lines. If there are 2 cars in front of me at a gas station, I go to another one no matter how much the gas is. If I walk through a supermarket and there is long lines, I...

Last night I spoke at LIRA (Long Island Reefers Assn.) The treasurer asked me to meet him at the Applebees in Commack. I got there at 6:30 and waited for 40 minutes. It started to rain. I didn't have his phone number or know what he looked like. Eventually he called me to ask where I was. I...

Jamie, good Idea. I still surprise my wife with a night at a B&B or I bring her flowers. Surprise her with something occasionally. There are a few things that make for a happy long lived marriage. My wife and I are still best friends, we hang out together, make fun of each other and are...

Thank you Jamie and Diana. My wife kept the wine glasses we drank from on our wedding and brings them every anniversary to the restaurant so we toast from them. :biggrin:

Good Morning. Today is my wedding anniversary. 49 years married to my childhood sweetheart who I met when she was 12. No, I didn't date her then because I am not a Perv contrary to popular opinion. I was going out with her older cousin because I am 6 years older than my wife. She wrote me...

There is a reason I have been happily married for almost 50 years. I make my wife breakfast every day and today I also picked her some flowers on my morning jog/walk/meander. Anyone want to call me a Sissy? :cool:

I sent that video to my Captain who was there with me. He is a retired Brigadier General now and a few years older than me. He said I was there on Snuffy twice but must have left for 3 days to go to another firebase. That guy remembers everything and I barely remember getting drafted...

I was searching for something on the Net and accidentally found this video from Viet Nam. It is the exact place and time I was there. LZ Snuffy 1970. I was a Sargent in the First Air Cav which is the unit here. I don't remember seeing any film crews while I was there so this may have been...

This Morning I went on a nature walk on one of the hiking trails here. It was a beautiful day and a fantastic looking place which meandered through a forest, past a vineyard and down to the sea. I was the only man with 6 or 7 Ladies. I did have a fleeting fear that they would gang up on...

I am running out of room with my other hobbies so I will have to sell my steampunk stuff for about an eighth of what it sells for in an art gallery. I have been making live edge tables and now I am making a waterfall table. Very cool. I get so many compliments on my finished table I decided...

It's supposed to be the most widely prescribed medication now next to Prizapro. Some places you don't even need a prescription. It is so common I was thinking of adding it to my oatmeal in the morning. I took it this morning and started three threads until I found out I was on a Komoto Dragon...

Good Morning Diana. Always nice to hear from you. :) This doesn't happen to people who have jobs where they get tired tapping the "passcode" into their phone all day or look for innovative ways to eliminate SPAM from their inboxes. ;)

I have been having upper back issues (because my life was full of Manly work where you actually have to lift and hold heavy things over your head for many hours, resisting gravity while you wait for an apprentice to get the screw started) :rolleyes: Anyway, my X rays and MRIs indicate that if I...

He actually wasn't from Hawaii. I forgot where he came from but not Hawaii. Definitely in the South Pacific.

I just picked up this cool fan tail filefish. It is kind of rare and I think the guy made a big mistake on the price because it was fairly cheap. The owner gave me the price so i didn't say anything. :)
