Priorities part deux

Just after I posted the first blog today, I read it back and the date surprised me. On May 19th 1987 I got engaged. Every year we celebrated the date of our engagement. This year even though I wrote the date several times yesterday, it didn't even register with me. How weird is that ? How far have I moved on ?

Exponentially girl! You have moved on exponentially! Yay Gwen! And that, my friend, is progress! :D

Ooh, I like that !!! What a difference the last 2 years has made and I firmly believe the best is yet to come...

AuntieGwen, I stumbled upon your blog awhile back and keep returning -- the attraction (aside from the things we have in common such as forties, divorced motherhood, and school) is your way of stringing letters of the alphabet together in an interesting manner and with such a lovely accent. How pathetic is it that I actually spend several consecutive minutes reading the blog of a total stranger from half-way around the world?! Doesn't say much for my life, does it? Anyway, thanks for brightening my day several times. Hope your week is lovely.

Shirley - Thank you so much for taking the time to say such lovely things.

Welcome to my world, visit often and share as much of your's as you'd like to

I spend a fair amount of my time reading blogs from people I've not met in reality but have become my friends, but you already know what a rock n roll life style I've got !!!

Thanks for brightening my day with your lovely comment xx

You are doing well my scottish lass.

This might be of interest, a walk down memory lane, oh what fun we had, scoffing days :)

My parents still celebrate their first date! (40 years on)

I got engaged on my 21st birthday so no forgetting that one, but I do get my anniversary date mixed up. What's that about?
