My Wife and I are Turning 40 Tomorrow...

Posted on 12/15/2007 6:16:49 AM PST by big truck

We met in college. I was from Pennsylvania, she was from Oregon. We both worked in the cafeteria.

Somehow the topic of birthdays came up - she was born in December, so was I. She was born on the 16th, so was I. She was born in 1967, so was I. She was born at 10:40 am (pacific time), I was born at 1:58 pm (eastern time). Given the time change, she is 18 minutes older than I am. Any freeper advice as we crest the big hill tomorrow?

Thanks, Chick. I’m not worried about turning 40. It’s a bigger deal to my wife for some reason...

Now you can trade in your 40 for two 20’s

I assume a celebration is planned?

Becoming 40 is FAR better than the only alternative!

There is no record of a husband ever being shot by his wife, while He was doing the dishes.

I have a refrigerator magnet with that saying!

I have asked for and recieved forgiveness on many occasions. I am at peace with the Christ. I have told my wife countless times I would be lost without her. I honestly believe I have married the last of the good women out there.

Just to say Happy Birthday to you both. Tomorrow is our 40th anniversary. (BTW, I was a negative 10 when we got married and not 17) ;)

The 2-minute duration might be right, but the nine repetitions ... nah, haven't done that since college...

Likewise. For me, it included a goat and some midgets.

I have been doing that for the past 364 days. Not the best strategy for setting the mood...

Thanks. Should be an interesting decade - three daughters 11, 9, and 7. Next year at this time (Lord willing) it will be 21, 19, and 17.

Save for your future.... and hide all the pictures of yourself when you were in your twenties. (the pictures will just depress you)
