Oldly-Weds

We are just into our second year of marriage.  I think it's time to report in.  Maybe this blog isn't just about getting married. Perhaps it should be about being married and working to say married.  Because it is work, ya know.


I think we are oldly-weds now.  Not newly married, and older than most newly weds.  We are second timers with a new lease on life. It's had it's challenges.  Up days, down days, what the hell were we thinking days.  Even though we cohabitated for several years it has been a change.  


We moved from a spacious house to a little rental house.  From a big city to a little city.  Truly people should be required to move away from home in their 20's at least once.  I was an underachiever in that regard.


The best part is life as a team, a couple, as spouses.  It is still a celebration.  Well, when I'm not on the outside of the one bathroom door asking when it is my turn.  The wedding was one of the best days of our life, but it was just one day.  The rest is unfolding for us day-by-day.  Good days, bad days, rich and poor days.  Perhaps, we are newly weds as long as we choose to be.  No matter how old we are.
