HappyAnniversary Scarlett

Here's hoping your night "on the town" is delicious and a Dorothy Parker quote because you are such a fan:

I have no idea what it's like to be a millionaire but I bet I'd be adorable at it.

OH!!! had no idea it was tonight.
Happy anniversary Scarlett. And remember as Dorothy Parker said:
"dont know much about being a millionaire"(nowdays we say billionaire)
but I bet I'd be darling at it." CHEERS!

My gift: another quote: "The first thing I do in the morning is brush my teeth and sharpn my tongue."

We should keep this Travel related so someone won't get all fussy

I traveled from California to NY and met my Yankee.
We have been traveling happily together, since then.
Now our children travel as does Pup.

We are at the moment, planning some new travels.
Where were you when you met your SO and do you travel together as much as possible?

I raise my glass to Scarlett and Yankee.

I met DH when my friends Sharon, Angie and I went out for a wild night on the town. Sharon already knew my DH through her BF and she decided to set up DH with Angie. I don't know what Sharon was thinking because Angie was looking for a "college guy" back then, while I was looking for someone over 30. My DH was then 31, so it seems obvious he was a better match for me. Anyway, there was no love connection between Angie and DH, and instead he asked me out. Angie had no hard feelings, and the rest is history.

Love is like quicksilver in the hand. Leave the fingers open and it stays. Clutch it, and it darts away.

Anyone married 200 years has learned this one well. Happy Anniversary, Scarlett!

Happy Anniversary to both Scarlett and the Yankee

I met DH in Berkley. It was a night out on the town with a large group of friends, and it turned out we each knew everyone except each other. This was a summer break during college. When we returned to school, it was very convenient to start dating...his fraternity was across the street from my sorority

Oh dear, Scarlett, Happy 200th !

We will travel to celebrate our 100th next Oct.
I met Mr R5 a tad after he lived across from my sorority...it was in
a small 10 unit apt. place in Mill Valley,CA.

My landlord had not finished the closet remodel he promised for my then ridiculously (sp?)
huge (and long gone)wardrobe,so new landlord said I could hang my clothes in MrR5's closet
as he wasn't moving in for 2 weeks.

Of course Mr.R5 moved in early, and I came home from work one night to
1/2 my wardrobe decorating my sofa,
dining chairs, etc. AND roses
and a note of apoplogy for any disruption this "mess" may have caused.

The roses and note were NOT from my landlord.

Have a divine celebration !
R5

Cheers lady, this I copied from cig, the Parker fan.
Four things I am wiser to know,
Idleness, sorrow, a friend, and a foe.

Scarlett - happy anniversary! The date is a very good one because it's the same as my youngest grandson's birthday. He turns 2 on November 6th.

I met my sweetie when he was hired as the professional lead in the [very] amateur choir I sang with in Toronto. Recognized him immediately because I had seen him on stage many times. In our first conversation he told me he was from British Columbia, which I found interesting because I had wanted to live there ever since I first set foot in the place in 1986.

And now, here we are, having travelled all the way across the country, living in Sooke, BC, which is just northwest of Victoria. I keep wondering what I possibly could have done to deserve all this wonderful stuff - must have been in a previous life.

Met the dear one across the ICU..we knew each other for years before the sparks flew. We've been travelling together for nearly 20 years and just about have the routine down. We still can drive each other round the bend but also make each other laugh to tears.
