My wife Tanya got back last night from a 4-day trip to San Diego and a teacher's conference. It was her first time in California and she wanted to see what it was all about. She kept on the go throughout all the free time she was able to wrest from the conference. She did see quite a bit and couldn't wait to get home to share what she saw.
I was glad she got home safe, sound and on time. Even though it was only four days, I missed Tanya. I didn't do anything special while she was gone; there was nothing I really wanted to do without her.
At then end of the week we'll celebrate our 12th wedding anniversary, a record for me because my previous high was only six years. A dozen years might not sound like much to the longer-married in the area, but it went by so quickly for me. I'm impressed. I'm also thankful I've been able to celebrate two anniversaries since I was diagnosed with cancer, so each one is impressive to me. I hope to have many more.
