Today is my 34th wedding anniversary. I can't believe it's really been 34 years since that Sunday in Pensacola. I think we have a really good marriage. We've worked hard to make it that way, learning to live with each other at every stage of life and taking problems in stride when they come--and they do come. It's good to be at a point where being away from each other for weeks at a time is not fun, but it's okay. It's actually how we started our engagement. I took a job with Westinghouse ( when I didn't quite graduate) while he was still in school and it was weeks, sometimes months between visits from July until December when he graduated and went to work for ESC and I quit working for Westinghouse and went to work for the SCORE project at LSU Med School. We weathered being apart without too much trouble then and here we are back again in a similar situation except this time I'm in Auburn instead of him.
I think Allan would agree that the best thing we've done over our 34 years together is to raise 3 adorable and successful children. And, it is so much fun being a family.
Well, here's to many more wonderful years, Allan. I miss you!
