I am reminded, the date is in my ring, that it was 38 years ago today I got married.  Back then we didn\u2019t have worries or cares.  Our list of commitments were only to each other.  We were fortunate in that we were debt<\/strong> free.  We were unfortunate that we had no money, but we didn\u2019t care.  In fact<\/strong> we really didn\u2019t know we didn\u2019t have anything<\/strong> nice, like kids today.  <\/p>\n

The first 7 months we lived in \u201cmarried student housing\u201d as I finished up my last<\/strong> semester.  We had it all planned and figured we had it all paid for.  We had part time<\/strong> jobs and I had a guaranteed job when I graduated. We made a little money that paid the bills and we didn\u2019t need<\/strong> anything<\/strong> more.  It was simple then. <\/p>\n

On this day<\/strong>, 38 years ago, we had a huge big wedding.  My best man and I had worked out a good plan<\/strong> and the car<\/strong> was hidden well.  Probably too well, as the attendees that would have decorated us had all the right<\/strong> supplies but lost track of time<\/strong> and when we dashed out, most of them were caught un-aware.  Yes we got pelted with the \u201cnew\u201d farmers version of rice<\/strong> (wheat) but we were happy.  We were off, they were left staring as none had agreed on who would have chase cars\u2026 we got to our hidden car<\/strong> and we were off with only a handful of the crew that caught up as we were ready to leave and they had forgotten to bring the \u201cstuff\u201d.  Now that was funny<\/strong> they all just stood there and waved. <\/p>\n

We headed west, a direction<\/strong> that we would again journey in 18 months to make<\/strong> a home<\/strong>.  I guess we were in wonder of the mountains and that was our goal.  The first day<\/strong> we got half<\/strong> way before we decided to stop<\/strong>.  It was not a romantic spot but we didn\u2019t care.  We didn\u2019t get the newly wed suite, but we didn\u2019t care. We also had a NOT romantic first meal \u2013 KFC<\/strong>, but we didn\u2019t care.  <\/p>\n

It was our goal and plan<\/strong> to just enjoy what came our way and stick it out any way we could.  I think it has turned out ok, because we have stayed together through 9 moves and 2 kids.  We have lived apart a lot<\/strong> of this time<\/strong> as my job has been overly demanding of my time<\/strong>.  She had to deal<\/strong> with the kid alone many times.  We lived on little.  We had to plan<\/strong> every expense the first 20+ years.  We have lived for extended times in camp<\/strong> trailers, close quarters and been frozen out.  Through all this we have stuck it out.  <\/p>\n

Not all our dreams have come true and we have many regrets for poor decisions we have made, but we all make<\/strong> mistakes and that makes us stronger if we can get through that, learn from that, and move on.  It is much easier when you have a partner to hold you up when you need<\/strong> holding.  My only hope now is that we can make<\/strong> it another 38 as we have many more things to see and do.    I am also extremely comfortable with my partner for life.  I think she made a good choice and I am glad she did. – REX<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
