A Balance of Harmonies: Without Emil

Wednesday marked my twentieth wedding anniversary. I don’t think two people who really love each other can get this far without a lot of compromise (although I’ve seen people married much longer who don’t seem to even like each other).

In that long we’ve been in sync, out of it, and back again, like the year I would have done anything to get out of the house at the same time he just wanted to be home when not at work or now when I have a thousand hobbies I can do at home and he just wants to go and see and do, the times we finished furniture together, once reupholstering the couch, and the time when we couldn’t even hang up a picture frame together (I laugh when I remember this, it was so pathetic). We have our ups and downs, sometimes separately, sometimes together, but I am still glad I married him and consider myself luck, because he’s the best man in the world.
