Fridays SOS challenge...


The challenge for Friday is to tell a story (I'm a little late cause I fell asleep at 7:00 pm) about a photo...so here it is! The story is an interesting one...this is our wedding in October of 1991...put on by our parents at my mother and father's house. We had known each other all through our high school years...but never hung out together even though he was 'the boy next door'. When our marriages ended...our mothers, who were best friends connived to get us together for 'coffee'... I was adamant... no way did I want to get connected to anyone and never was I ever getting married again! My mother worked on me... ' he is a little lonely'... it would just be nice of you to go for coffee' ... he's such a nice man.... etc. Well, she was right, he is definately a nice man...almost like a girlfriend in that he doesn't mind the mall...or shopping...he vaccums and tidies up and actually likes doing the dishes...he is a great 'wife' too not to mention the best husband a woman can have! So...to get back to the story... I went for coffee... we had a few dates and hung around... our kids were friendly and since we had kids...we thought maybe we should get married... ha ha ha... what did I know, eh...so much for staying single! Without him in my life it would be empty ... we have had a great time together so far and I'm not letting him go... I told him he was just stuck with me cause it would cost him too much for a divorce and that I had to keep living to the style to which I'm accustomed ...ha ha ha... if you knew us, you would also know how close we are and that is one of our sick little jokes!! So there's my story... !
