9. yup she's my one and only
asked her to marry me 2 weeks after dating her for the first time. I think that you have to work at a good marriage and it's the best job I'll ever have.

6. Time DOES fly when you're with the right person.
It'll be 20 years for me and Mrs. Arbusto next week.

Congrats to you and yours.

20. They say the first 33 or 34 years of marriage are the toughest.
.

.
Seriously, congratulations.
.
.
.
What an accomplishment!!! What a JOY!!!
.

Thanks for sharing. Stories like yours give hope and reassurance to the
most cynical of the rest of us that such things are INDEED possible.

It's very sweet.

21. we've had our ups and downs
but the main thing is we never stay mad at each other. We have 5 minute arguments and then move on. We don't hold grudges and we don't bring up the past. I can't seriously imagine life without Annette and I know she can't imagine life without me. This past year has been a tough one with her ovarian cancer diagnosis and the chemo therapy that followed. Then this past March she had both breasts removed as a precautionary measure because she carries the gene that causes breast cancer. She had reconstructive surgery in August and her last procedure is in a 2 weeks. Knowing what she faced I didn't hesitate to retire from the fire service so I could be there for her during all the doctors visits and hospital stays. She is the most important thing in my life. As for you I offer you my best wishes on your continued recovery.

25. Congrats!!
You have obviously learned well the lesson that I, too, learned long ago: Not your fault? Just go ahead and apologize and get it over with! Peace and harmony is more important than being right!

:rofl:

Seriously, congrats, and I salute you!

:hi:
