After over 20 years of being single, and at the age of 53, I was married on December 21 to a wonderful baby boomer of 56. Don't know why I worried so much about living with a man after all these years because it has been "heaven" having a man around the house.

Smilin, I saw that you are from "outer space." I have known my husband, a boomer too, for 21 years exactly this month. We have been married since 1988. I never would have guessed that marriage could be all the more richer and deeper as we "age." So, Smilin, where are you really from? Love and Light, Lynn

sunshine and smilin definitely have something in common. I've been married to the love of my life for 26 years. He's my "bestest" friend in all the world. Lynn, I love hearing from happily married women. Congrats!

Micki, where's all this coming from girlfriend? shhh..., but thank you so much for all the kind words. I often think about how God was looking out for Ross and I when we were ignoring Him and got married. We didn't even want to be married in a church. (I'm ashamed to say.) Had to be married outside. I'm grateful we chose to turn our lives over to Him when we did. He continues to bless our union, which in turn allows us to parent and love our children, parents, siblings, family and friends even more. I give God the credit for being at work in us.

Sunshine, I'm 53 and have been married for 3 years to a guy who's now 56. It's been great! We have everything in common, but sometimes we wonder (just for fun) if we'd have hit it off had we met 30 years ago. [ January 24, 2005, 10:32 PM: Message edited by: DJ ]

DJ...
I know Tom and I would not have been compatible 30 years ago. I guess it takes years of living life, smoothing out the rough edges, trimming the branches back, etc. to get to the person I am today where he and I are sooooooooooooo compatible. We already finish each other's sentences and think about the same things (scary)! Glad to hear you have been so happy--looking forward to 30 years with Tom.

iT IS IMPORTANT THAT WE HAVE SOMEONE THAT WE CAN RELATE WITH AND ENCOURAGE US WHEN WE ARE DOWN. I KNOW THAT MY HUSBAND, OF 35 YEARS, IS A GREAT ENCOURAGER! WHENEVER I AM SICK OR HAVE JUST GOTTEN MY CHEMO TREATMENT, HE IS ALWAYS THERE TO MAKE SOME JOKE, OR JUST SAY 'I LOVE YOU' OR EVEN MAYBE SAY A LITTLE PRAYER FOR ME. IT IS SO WONDERFUL TO HAVE HIM HERE WITH ME!!! [ November 03, 2005, 05:31 PM: Message edited by: Merium ]
