Happy Anniversary, Mark!

Mark and I were married 19 years ago today. This excerpt seemed appropriate in an inappropriate way.

"I flounced into the grill room and saw Mark sitting at the bar. I grabbed his arm and said, "Come outside with me right now!" The guys at the bar looked aghast. We stood in front of the clubhouse, and I announced to Mark, "I spend all of my time with the kids. You're always here. I'm thirty eight years old and I AM LONELY! I don't love you anymore and I want a divorce. I was not using my indoor voice."

oh dear...yes, THOSE moments. Can't wait for you (I mean your book) to show up at my doorstep.

At least your kids weren't there - were they? That would be one of our low points. Glad you made it past that! Happy anniversary.

Kim, it's so hard to remain steadfast for the kids and still get along with an adult in the house. Congratulations to you and Mark for getting past the bar scene (which luckily is funny is retrospect). God bless your family.

Phew! Have to admit to smiling at this post, as I know you made it through. I've never had a public confrontation like this, but can't say I haven't wanted to!
