20 years....
20 year college reunion was the past weekend for me (May 31/June1). A few friends I know are going, it is only less than an hour away from where I sit right now... those 4 years [in college] seem but a brief flash at this point. Maybe the further away you get the less significant that section of life becomes, perspective I suppose. Bigger point to mark is 20 years of being married... far more significant than a few years of college even though those few years are what set this all up.
But less significant is that 20 year mark in terms of celebrating.
Why?
I had a bit of a realization while riding with Goldberg on Sunday. Explaining the significance of 14. Esp now that we're linked with one of the key 14s.
Every month. Since at least since we were married, and probably before that... the 14th has been an anniversary. Every 14th.
That's a lot of anniversaries. The 20th YEAR is a big deal.. but less of a big deal after 240+ anniversary days.
2014 is a big change in lots of ways. Personally and beyond. And it still keeps happening, lots of reflection and introspection sorting out that hasn't happened here. Too many unknowns still, but they have less of an impact with a few exceptions.
-editing today- on the 14th...
i've spent the day working on the car. chasing electrical problems, putting in new brake pads, changing the oil, removing a stuck wheel. That's my day today. Why?
because i got pulled over on thursday for an expired inspection sticker.
have until tuesday to get the paperwork dropped off over at the State DMV facility.
hoping what i've done to chase the gremilins is enough... really hoping...
but yeah... So tomorrow is father's day and it is all about Kailey's culmination performance. Seems fitting with the selfless theme.
