Forty Years And Counting

Services for Real Estate Pros with The Real Estate Investment Institute 1retiredsage

Forty Years And Counting, 480 months, 2,080 weeks, 14,610 days, 350,640 hours, 21,038,400 minutes, 1,262,304,000 seconds ago tomorrow 4-24-2011, I had the most wonderful and most scary day of my life. I've been thankful for it ever since.

It's impossible to total the number of times a day I think about that day. It still warms my hart and makes the day worth living!

I should included another 6 months, 26 weeks, 182 days, 4,368 hours, 262,080 minutes, 15,724,800 seconds, but you know that story I told it here in Tribute To A Lady / Decision Making. My only regrets was that we waited those six months! I'd do it all over again and hope to have almost as long to come.

There are two explanations.

Brenda see's what she wants. I try to live up to what Brenda sees in me!

&

Brenda and I belong to a mutual admiration society!

 

 

 

Happy 40th anniversary, Love!

Bill

You've been kept for 40 years, I suspect you'd be kept for at least another 40!!! Happy Anniversary, Bill & Brenda.

Congrats to you and Brenda, and here's to 40 years more. And especially kudos to Brenda for putting up with a curmudgeon like you (I am one, so I recognize one when I see one;^)

Parful,

It all depends on your point of view! I was talking to my parents my Mother said "that's not so long we've been marided 65 years." Mom added "you'll make it!" Then Dad spoke up saying "then we'll have been maried 90 years" God willing I think they be there.

Jon,

Time does fly!

Were planing another 40 or so. My parents told me Friday that the first 65 were easy after the kids left home. Then I remembered I was the first of their five.

Jennifer,

It's easy!

All it takes is love, commitment, consideration and never let familiarity displace passion!

Good luck.
