Being married to TLW is like being married to a full time secretary and being involved in a military operation, all at once!
When we planned our wedding, we did so on the Long Island Railroad, and there was absolutely no hitch involved. Every morning, from the same seats, we made notes, scheduled and put in place. When we moved from apartment to house and house –to- house, we were labels and sorted, and we still have boxes that were packed over 35 years ago that we haven’t opened. But we know exactly what’s in them.
After all these years nothing has changed.
“Joe, I’m going to give you a list of what you need to remind #2 Son to bring home from school for the holidays!”
She starts to read off a litany of things and says she’ll write it down also.
The morning of the big ‘operation’ a list is left on the kitchen table for me.
Keys
Laptop
Phone
Charges
Laundry

“Toots, what’s this last thing on your list?”
“Well, that’s the most important thing on the list!”
“Don’t tempt me to partial read.”
