On Valentine's Day the Boston Globe showcased 4 couples that had each been married over 50 years.
It was an adorable article that you can read here. I like the part where each guy basically admits that their wife is in charge. I think every husband realizes that at some point.
I read parts of the article to my husband.
At the end, I said, "I love you, and no offense, but I'm glad we're not going to be married 59 years."
Luckily he laughed.
P.S. This is the very last week of voting for the Bloggies. PLEASE go vote right now. You can only vote once. After you vote for BEST NEW blog, scroll down and vote for Weblog of the Year.
I got home from a school committee meeting at 11pm tonight and my husband gave me 'The look' but I gave him the wave off saying, "I have to BLOG." If I can pass up sex, the least you can do is vote! ;) THANK YOU!
BAHAHA... I did the same thing last night. He gave me the "Well, I offered" look... meh! Too funny ;)

I can't lie, I can't imagine being with ANYONE for 59 years. One of my favorite stories in the paper a couple years back was this old married couple. Their next-door neighbors put their house on the market so they bought it and the hubby moved next door. That way they each had their own place but they could get together conveniently for conjugal visits and dinner dates. ;)

I don't expect to live that long. Or... is that what you meant, too?
