Ty one on wrote:I plan to. I just have to be real nice the next couple of weeks. Its the Wife and mine 5th anniversary on the 19th. Lets see, Mothers Day, Something real nice could equal some points and I figure I will send her flowers to work on the 17th. and get a real nice card for her on the 18th. I think this plan should work. Who knows she might even pack my clothes and my cooler for me while she is hooking up the boat.
Ty, you're going about it all wrong. If you do all that stuff in your early years of marraige, your wife will expect it for the rest of her life. However, there are some special "LANDMARK" anniversaries along the way. 5years falls into that category. I don't remember my 5th anniversary, but I do remember my 25th. I took my wife to get the oil changed in her car, then took her to McDonalds. I know that may have been over doing it, but she's worth it.
I agree with you TC,I think Ty is over doing it way too soon. A note on her pillow the night of the 18th oughta' do it.
SEE YOU SUNDAY WITH A NICE FRESH FISH DINNER.
LOVE YOU HONEY.
BYE
JT, the note on the pillow might be a good idea. All I have is a sign that says "GONE FISHIN", sitting in the kitchen window. If I wake up early and leave without telling my wife, I put the sign by the coffee pot.
As far as all the marital advice being handed out... I started out many years ago in the union carpentry apprenticeship program out of high school. The journey man that I was assigned to was full of rather sage advice on a lot of things. I remember one of his expressions was ..... "when it comes to women... promise em half of what you can give em... give em half of what you promised..... and they'll learn ta never be disappointed in ya"
"Good Judgement" comes from experience, ... and a lot of that..... results from "Bad Judgement".
