ok KAW you're theory isn't all that corney but I couldn't help but think of that movie "first Knight" and sir lancelot and guenevere (if that is in fact who they are supposed to be..) did get it on in the woods so

so last night h and I went to a 50th anniversary party I decided that I just didn't want to be all dressed up with a naked finger so I put my wedding rings in my worlds smallest purse ( you know the ridiculous little things women carry when their all dressed up, about all you can fit in them is your license and a lipstick.) and as we were parked at the end of the drive way filling out the cards I handed the bag to h and told him there was something inside. He searched the bag and found the rings..he was excited and put them back on my finger saying they looked great and so did I (look great that is).

We talked a bit on the way to the party...though I thought my rings had been staring him in the face each time he went to get a vitamin he claims he was oblivious and thought they were in my jewelry box or somewhere else. He also said that he didn't think that he could just ask me to put them back on and that's the only reason he hadn't. I think he thought I was looking for some grand proposal or something and though that would have been nice it wasn't needed.

I did let him know that it would be nice if he could make me feel a little better about having to take care of that myself and he put his hand on mine and squeezed it...he must have been reading my mind because he then said "that's not it btw" (his putting his hand on mine was not it as far as reassuring me). We both laughed.

The anniversary pty was nice...nice to see two people who have been together for 50 years happy and smiling and woosh the kisses my goodness!! they put young couples to shame!

h was very loving and affectionate too.

another baby step, but in actuality a huge committment, i am glad you went down the ring road and was met with acceptance

glad you had fun at the anniversary party ... kissing eh? wouldn't you be doing the same thing if you were married to the same person for 50 years???

i can't even fathom that!

Okay, those of you who haven't followed LL as long as I have may not realize how HUGE this is!!!!

LL...I'm nearly speechless!!! I HATE to say "I told you so"...but I think I DID!!!!

None-the-less, this was the perfect opportunity, the perfect timing and the perfect manner to put THAT bit of unfinished business behind you both!!!

I'm grinning!!!

You know what I love most about this???? It was a two person job...you took a step in then h took a step in then you did then...

You see my point.

Wow LL,

You made my heart soar. What a difference a day makes (or a gesture) for that matter.

I'm so happy for you.

LL,
How wonderful! Almost made me cry! See what happens when one person makes a step, the other one follows!
