Nostalgia

I'm having trouble returning to the blogging mode after the wedding.
It's like everything screeched to a halt, and it's hard to overcome
inertia.


I always get sentimental at weddings. My marriage has been idyllic,
and I think at weddings I am subconsciously hoping the newlyweds will
have what Ruth and I have.


I married at the grand old age of 19. If I had it to do again, I
would have married at 17 and saved myself two tough years.


Ruth was 23 when we married. Her school teacher salary provided us a
living the first two years of our married life.
