Our wedding anniversary is tomorrow. 34 years!

We are celebrating tonight and tomorrow night and having dinner out tonight and a special dinner tomorrow ordered by hubby from a gourmet food catalogue. I'll have to put it together due to husband's bad back but that's OK.

Back story: I refused to marry again due to my disastrous first marriage. He had to talk me into it. And I had my assurances from him that he would pay his half of the bills (first husband considered most jobs "beneath" him). My mental state was still recovering.

Now we are doing well in retirement, first husband passed away a few years ago.

And we are both STRONG DEMOCRATS and facing the awful challenge of TSF's next administration with all the courage we have together!

Worry and concern will be with us for the next four years. My hope is that the wretched evildoers will destroy themselves.
