She only has eyes for me

Sometimes life cracks me up. 

I went the optometrist a few weeks ago. I had my checkup and ordered new glasses. My old ones were brown, square, and had thick plastic frames. The new ones are black, more rounded, and have thin frames. I picked them up LAST THURSDAY. 

YESTERDAY (7 days later…) the wife and I went to Chick-fil-A for lunch. She looked at me and exclaimed “You got your new glasses!” She told me they looked nice. 

I told her I got them a week ago, thanks for noticing. 

It’s not often I embarrass my wife. Okay, I do it all the time, but this time it was her embarrassment, not my actions, speech, or behavior. This one was on her. 

I guess it’s safe to say after 46 years together she doesn’t stare at me with love and admiration anymore.  I guess she looks at me about once a week.

A friend recently told me that his wife has no more interest in him than she would have in a cow.

Sad.

Allow me to apologize on behalf of these ladies; pretty sure they, like me, might realize far too late how very much they really do love you, how much greater you made their lives, and how much you are a part of them.

Okay, okay. Enough with the mush.

Thanks Fred. In honesty they look a lot like the pair I wore until a few months ago that I broke. The ones I was wearing were a. Older pair. We both laughed about it. All is good.

When I met hubby he had silver hair and white bushy mustache. Ten years later I came downstairs, kiss him good morning, started breakfast for him all the while talking to him. Later I realized that he had shaved off his mustache that morning. Took me 5 hours. We laughed.
