Happily, the second night I spent in that room was my first night as a married man... so I pretty much didn't care about the quality of the bed anymore. The company more than made up for it.
Tomorrow is 11 years that I've been married, and Maggie has put up with a LOT of crap from me. Even when I was drinking myself to death, she stuck it out. I guess she had hope. I guess she was afraid of what would happen if she left me. I guess she was hoping that she'd be able to say to me:
"You're turning back into the man I married."And she did say that, a couple of years ago.
I've done a lot of things wrong. Some of them have been really bad. But I can honestly say that, today, I'm trying to be the best husband I can be. And with God's help, I'll try the same thing tomorrow.
11 years with me. The woman is truly to be commended.
Love to all. Even you, the people I've lost, and hope to find again.

Happy Anniversary, you two.
Does she have a twin sister?
I am in the market for a new bed.
Rich- Eleven years is a long time. I've been married the same. You are an inspiration to everyone who strives to be a better person. Keep it up.
It takes a good man to admit he has done things wrong, so I salute your honesty and congratulate you and your dear wife on your anniversary. Best wishes.
Congratulations & Happy Anniversary!
Happy Anniversary!
Anonymous is me. Peter
Congratulations! Btw...our anniversary is today, October 3. That's pretty close to each other, isn't it?
Hope I'm not too late?
Happy happy anniversary, Rich - to you and the missus.
I hope to have as much when it comes time for me to settle down!
