In 12 years, we have had some wonderful moments and some dry spells...let me correct that..dry years. We both have flashes of brilliance and moments of utter bordedom.
One way that I defintely got his attention in the romance department.....
I played Mr. Silver that song, "Buy Me Rose," from Kenny Rogers REALLY loudly OVER and OVER...AND I sang along.
Sad thing is....he brought home roses one day. My mom was visiting; we both turned and said in unision, "What did you break?"
Actually, Mr. Silver and I have made a conscious effort to revitalize our marriage. Turning off the TV and the computers was the first step.
IMO, a weekend retreat to a B & B that DOES NOT have a TV or telephone is a good start.
In his flashes of brilliance, he is a rare find indeed. For example, last year on my birthday, I went to AOII IHQ to give a tour to a friend. When I walked in the door, everyone there knew it was my birthday. I was presented with a rose-wrapped box containing a jeweled 1945 AOII badge from my chapter!
But, boredom is equally bad...guys, a USED harvest gold blender is NOT an appropriate anniversary gift no matter how good a deal it was.....
