Ok, Ok, I've had enough of only part of my words comming up.  I think that
what I said (or meant to say) was that yea, that piece of paper really does
made a difference BUT, it doesn't always have to.  Two people who really
care for each other and are *willing to work on a relationship* stand a
really good chance of remaining as a couple.  There are always a few changes
that occur after marriage.  Some are small and some take slowly chipping
away at the little things to get to the big one(s).  That's where the
communication factor comes into play.

I agree with our reactions to certain things being different.  Otherwise there
wouldn't be as many different style bands, different types of food, etc.  It's
these different reactions and feelings that make the people what they are today

I don't know but, I'm having the same problem.  Referring to my sentences above
maybe it's because of the many different reactions to this subject.  it could
also be that this is an experience a lot of people have either lived through,
about to become acquainted with, or are just curious about.

Sorry Rick, I have a few years up on you and I still haven't taken a look at
my life and ask "How did I survive"?  I still live my life one day at a time,
party hardy, and enjoy every minute I can.  You never know what tomorrow might
bring.  I don't have an easy boss to get along with, etc. but, I don't let it
get me down (if I can help it).  I live a very active life, am hardly ever at
home, and find a lot of family time with my husband and children.  My grown-up
children still come home for Thanksgiving and X-mas dinner or we go to my Mom's
house or my brothers house.  We always set those two days aside for family.
My mom and dad used to be on the go just like I am and I guess I was born with
that gotta go attitude.  I enjoy it and wouldn't trade it for the world.  It
makes my life interesting and keeps me close to my trim teen-age shape and
only once (after my eldest son left the nest) did I ask myself how I survived.
