One thing I learned from my parents relationship (& my mom pounded this into me), treat your woman right.
I have a strong, supportive & magnificent wife. And my dogs love me.
I do have problems trusting others....

Yeah but you're a pretty chill guy, at least from what I've seen over the years. I'm sure your wife is equally thrilled to be married to someone calm and even keeled lol.

Happy for you two though. Also tripping out y'all been married longer than I've been on the planet lol. Crazy to think how much you two have experienced / been through together during the time frame of my existence.

Thank you. Sometimes it surprises me how long it's been as well. I turn 67 this Thursday. Now I know we'll be together for the rest of our lives.

PS - and that is 65-ish. You'll be 66 this year, right? That makes me a year older than you, like always.
