Texting with the Wifey


Yesterday my wife was driving home from northern Wisconsin, where she was visiting her mother. The following is a typical texting exchange between us. Married readers -- is this your life, too?

Wife: "I was just thinking that my mom has been sick all her life and never really strong. And that I must be much stronger than she was at this age. However, it just occurred to me that she was my age when they made the move to Wisconsin to start running a resort. That took a tremendous amount of strength. It was a very physical thing. So now I am wondering if this is the way I could end up."

Me: "So I should look for a young, healthy replacement?"

Wife: "That doesn't matter. She or I would outlive you, sh**head."

Me: "But at least I would die with a smile on my face."

I guess that is sort of what 27+ years of marriage really looks like ...

Merry Christmas to you John and your Family. Your wife is right. Mine will live forever. I've been married to her for 46 years. In this country that is equivalent to 3 consecutive life sentences for murder. I wouldn't have it any other way.
