    Default reward

    Fred wakes up at home with a huge hangover. He forces himself to open his eyes, and
    the first thing he sees is a couple of aspirins and a glass of water on the side table.

    He sits down and sees his clothing in front of him, all clean and pressed
    Fred looks around the room and sees that it is in perfect order, spotless, clean.
    So is the rest of the house.

    He takes the aspirins and notices a note on the table "Honey, breakfast is on the stove,
    I left early to go shopping. Love you."

    So he goes to the kitchen and sure enough there is a hot breakfast and the morning newspaper.
    His son is also at the table, eating.

    Fred asks, "Son, what happened last night?"

    His son says, "Well, you came home after 3 A.M., drunk and delirious. Broke some furniture, puked
    in the hallway, and gave yourself a black eye when you stumbled into the door."

    Confused, Fred asks, "So, why is everything in order and so clean, and breakfast is on the
    table waiting for me?"

    His son replies, "Oh that! Mom dragged you to the bedroom, and when she tried to take your pants off,
    you said, "Lady, leave me alone, I'm married"

    That scary radio reappeared tonite, it was half-stuck in the clothing. Since, I had my own little tiny radio, I didn't dare touch it. Now, this guy came in, asked to be waited on, and I said, " no." He looked! I said, " what do I look like a salesclerk?" ( a lowly salesclerk) He started laughing. Soooo, after an hour, 600.00 dollars later, he asks if I was married, he said, " I see no wedding ring." I said, " where is yours?"

    I told him to put it on.

    That is a long time, I would had been married 25 just one month more. He always made me breakfast, he knew, I wouldn't eat if he didn't.

    This will make all the men here sick, lol. He used to make me a little tiny cup of tea everynight. If you think, he spoiled me, yeah. He was my buddy.

    Well I made ther tea last night and I do several times a week. no big deal, or anything any guy should be ashamed to do or talk about. Too many people live together today that just don't give a crap about each other. Then again, too many new couples break up too soon before they get to really know each other because they can't put up with others crap. SO, I guess there is some balance.

    People do move on quickly don't they? lol. They are married for a year, and it is over babe. Now, if it is just a matter of stupid stuff like, well, he leaves his socks and dirty underwear laying on the floor, whiskers in the bath sink, cap off the toothpaste, those are the things I miss! People aren't marrying either like they used to Bob. They are living together, longer and longer, I kind of really don't understand that, but, then, I am old. And, I don't judge what I don't undestand, that is just not right. I know it wouldn't be right for me. I look at it this way, if I am going to pick up your dirty socks and dirty underwear I want to make sure I get ALL the bennies, lol. We laughed together alot, and had alot of the same common interests. I don't know if that counts for a happy marriage. We were satisfied with little things in life. I loved our Sunday mornings. Since neither of us could make a decent cup of coffee, we would go to get a what we called, " delicious" cup of coffee from Mickey D's. I would tote along a piece of bread and we would feed the birds. There was one bird, a big black crow who was so polite. lol. He would sit across the parking lot ontop of a pole and wait his turn leaving all the other littler birds eat first. Then, he would walk over to our car. We loved him. We called him the, the Walking Bird. He only walked. He was cool. We would come home and head to our basement. Where we had a small table and a black & white Tv, there, we would drink our delicious coffee's. I would read him stuff from the Sunday rag. Even after nearly 24 years of marriage he would pat his knee telling me to come sit with him. And, I did. I was truly the luckiest woman in the world to have had that kind of marriage.
