Anniversaries, et al

The hubs and I are coming up on our four month wedding anniversary. Soon we will be able to say that we were married longer than Renee and Kenny. Okay, I know that wasn’t funny but it’s so true. Actually I think we’ve got Renee and Kenny beat anyways because we knew each other longer than they did. More importantly, this month and next brings a couple of notable dates for the hubs and I. The wonderful boy asked me to marry him on Oct. 27th of last year and we officially began communicating on eHarmony on Nov. 2nd, two years ago. It just happens that the hubs birthday is Nov. 2nd as well and I’d like to think that I was a special present he didn’t expect to receive (wink, wink). I have a friend who also met her boy (well he’s not quite her boy yet) on eHarmony and hopefully will get to meet him in person for the first time soon. It’s taken them almost two years to get to this point but their story is a little different than the hubs and I. I hope their first meeting is just as wonderful as ours were especially since it’ll take place in almost the same place the hubby and I first laid eyes on each other.

Nothing much or rather nothing of interest going on here; still trying to get over this cold or flu or whatever. There’s still a “frog” in my throat that seems to creep back up in the mornings and doesn’t want to go away. The weather has been rainy the last few days. It’s been nice to have this rain which isn’t heavy or stormy. We’ve put up a bird feeder on our patio to attract the many birds that are still around this time of the year. We had been looking for a hummingbird feeder but stumbled upon a wildbird feeded at Target at a very good price. For less than $10, we got a nice feeder and a big bag of bird feed. The cat seems to enjoy the birds more than she enjoys the stray cats that come for food we leave on the patio. Luckily the bird feeder is up and away from the stray kitties. There are other things on my mind but it’s not for here or there.

  1. Congrats on the upcoming anniversary! I hadn’t realized from previous posts that you met your hubby via eHarmony. That is cool! I tried eHarmony a month ago…no dice. I am WAY too picky, I guess…NAH NOT ME!! *haha*.

    Hey, I realize my flaws.

    Hope that you feel better soon. It takes such a long time to get over colds, blech. Especially when the seasons are changing. Take care of yourself!

  2. Do you have a cat? I hope it does not catch too many birds. Congrats on your 4 months together. Our is December for 1 year! I am sick too, the Fall air is germy I guess.

  3. NC_State_gal– I’m feeling a lot better finally. I love the seasons changing here but it’s the seasons changing when I get colds. BTW, sorry your eHarmony experience wasn’t more positive. The hubs and I did receive a Tiffany heart bowl from eHarmony when we got married.

    Gia– Yes we have a cat but she’s an inside cat; she never goes outside. The birds are safe from her meow which is worse than her bite! Hope you feel better soon! We’re a sick pair, aren’t we?
