- Today is our anniversary. 27 years, through thick and thin, ups and downs, sickness and health, joy and heartbreak, good times and bad we’ve shared them together and with the Lord’s help made it thus far.
For our anniversary, we have a deck of question cards. They’re designed to stimulate conversation about topics we may never have discussed. Questions like:
- What was the most agonizing hour of your life?
- What was your proudest moment from the past 12 months?
- Our other and somewhat more expensive anniversary gift to ourselves was the 8 quart Instant Pot Duo + Air Fryer. My first, second, and third attempts to make it work failed. Hours later, I discovered the start button.
- Don’t look at me like that! The first Instant Pot didn’t have a start button. You selected the function, set the temperature and time and it started. How was I to know that the need one added a superfluous start button? Well, yes, it it’s listed in the owners manual. But so what? The manual is mostly superfluous also.
We ordered to-go lunch at one of Ella’s favorite Mexican restaurant. We then hurried home to dine with our best friends – each other.
We played many games of Fast Track while also answering questions from the Our Moments game.
Ella received a present and a phone call from son John today. That gave her a double smiles.
