Wow! 10 Years!
Today, is our 10th anniversary. Yes, not only did we make it through another year, we’ve managed to tolerate each other for a whole decade.
When we were married for one year, I went to the jewelry store where I had purchased our engagement ring looking for something special to give her. As I perused their wares, I came across this beautiful ring that had some intricate gold work and 11 tiny diamonds strong across the front in a row. When I pointed to it, the sales clerk said “what a wonderful choice, how long have you been married?” When I told her it was a year, she said that this ring is typically a 10th anniversary gift. I said, “What if it feels like 10 years?”
I bought the ring and gave it to her then. She loved it and continues to wear it. I love to tell that story and I’m not so sure she loves to hear it. But, I can honestly say, that after 10 years has past, it doesn’t feel like 10 years. It feels like it’s only been a year. We are more like newly weds today than we were back then.
Happy anniversary, my love. Don’t expect your 10th anniversary ring today. I gave it to you nine years ago.

The 10th anniversary is the tin or aluminum anniversary.
I think I’ll pick up a couple of dozen cans of beer. Will that cover it?

Thanks. Donna is the one that deserves the “congrats”… it was much more difficult for her than it was for me!
