Everyone Better Sit Down For This One!

Well, those of you that know me well better sit down, anyway.

After almost 38 years of being blissfully single .... I am getting married! :D (Another reason I haven't been on lately ... SO busy!)

The big day is May 20th. SCARY! His name is Joe. I actually went to high school with him, so we've known each other for 23 years. But, between kids, relationships, divorce, marriage, etc. we lost touch with each other and just got re-introduced last year.

He has three teenagers and I have one teenager, so it ought to be interesting. A 13, 14,15 and 17 year old! Help me! ;)

Best wishes to the new blended family! Good thing you've got the dogs to keep everyone in line! Any pets from his side? What do the dogs think of him? They must approve ...

Congratulations Twisterdog!! My Stepmother always told me you'll never find love when you WANT it, only when you're not looking for it. You just proved her right! I am so happy for you!

Thanks, everyone. :)

I'll post engagement pics when they come in three weeks, and of course wedding pics.

WOW ... weddings are soooo expensive, I had no idea. And, of course, we're way to old for our parents to be paying for it. (Darn it anyway!) ;)

Joe has a dachshund named Dante, who is nine years old. He had a little trouble adjusting to the pack, but he's doing ok now. And I posted a pic of Rosie, the English bulldog puppy I bought him for his birthday a while ago. So, we're back up to eight dogs. :eek:
