Late fall of 1964, met my future wife. Maybe not quite love at first site, but only took week - 10 days for this to dawn on me. Was almost off the ledge wild then. But this meeting did hit me like a ton of bricks.
May 22nd 1965 we were married. We had a few wrinkles in the road of life, but 99% of our life has been filled with blessings and good life.
On top of this, nothing to really do with our anniversary, but she gave me a pretty large chunk of $$$$ outta her secret sock. LOL.
She wanted to make sure I had $$$ for my very expensive hi-speed net, and even more important "Upgrades" which will take place pretty soon.
She has been a great mother, wife and most of all my "Best Friend" thru all these years.
FWIW, not sure I could be married to me all that time........Albeit always took care of and treated her how a lady was supposed to be treated.
The only music part was our life and the "Upgrades" comment.

Wow. Kudos!!
I have been married for 13 years total in my life and it took me 3 wives to get there!
I am using the new 1040XTRAEZ form this year. It has just 2 lines.
1. How much did you make in 2023? 2. Send it to us.

Excellent, Frank. Good for you guys! I'm very lucky also with feelings toward my bride similar to yours. Of course we are newlyweds compared to you since we've only been married 45 years.

Bob, 48 more, not sure that will happen, but nice thoughts from you, Thanks!
Lloyd S, Ya always have to work at it, but many things affect that Bliss. Thank You!
Eddie, Have a son who's on same count and holding....Lotsa wrinkles to overcome sometimes. My wife and I are not terribly active in church, but sure we had some guidance from above. Thank you!
Shastastan, Short story here about our music. Between 30-40 years ago, came home from work one day. Walked into the house and heard a most beautiful voice singing. Never heard it before. It was my wife. We had been married 10+ years and never heard it. "I know....Twas the Mailman". LOL Naw, not really. 45 years - 48 years both are from another lifetime away. Thanks!
Dan, Thats the makin's of a song, good hook. Thank you!
Mario, As Stan mentioned we are all in the same ballpark on the time. Its important, but the many memories thru those years, short or long is what really matters. Thanks to you also!

Well, Frank, Pauline and I were married for 39 years before we ever played any music together. She sings also and is in 2 choirs. We are so blessed that we are able to enjoy music together with our duets and bands we are in. If you can do music with your wife, you will get to experience some real fun and enjoyment.

Be thankful. I thought I was doing great when I hit 20 years on Monday .. another 28 would be amazing. Congratulations. I'm amazed she has put up with me this long.
Make your sound your own! .. I do not work here, but the benefits are still awesome

First something nice on our anniversary, we made a nice donation to great group in Oklahoma, City to help the unfortunate folks that are suffering. Did not include name, thought it may be improper.
Second, almost a payback. bout 3 weeks ago visiting with Buffet manager at local casino bout our anniversary. She gave me a name and said there would be a voucher for us. Well we had a fabulous meal, only gave the servers and couple others tips. Ate too much.
Den, In the blink of an eye it will be ten years. She might get tired standing on her toes that long tho. LOL Thanks
Danny, As mentioned above give or take a few years. Not being sarcastic, but each of our lives are all separate, and different songs. Maybe post a poem written by myself about 7-8 years ago. Thank you!
Mike, Few wrinkles along the way, but most of the journey has been very good. Appreciate your comments!
Mac, After a wild first 4 years in the military, your right on, she was and still is my blessing. And I will. Frank
Don, There you go again "One Ups-man-ship" Never Ketch Ya. You are so blessed to have Joanne also. Your road is bit more bumpy than most. Thank you!
Shastastan,
Did not mention above, but somewhere in my/our cassette archives is a recording of the two of us doing "Dust in the Wind". Nothing like you folks do, but was nice to do. Best to you 2 on the more than 39 years!
Josie,
Between you and Mac...following your suggestions might make her think, I'm hiding something. LOL
Thank you!
Dan, Thank you, enjoy your years, before you know great deal of time will pass. As writing this, can hear wife playing Elvis and his version of "My Way".
Appreciate you comments.

One of my former bosses once told me "Today is my anniversary... it marks 43 happy years"
Then after a pause, he added
"42 for her and one for me"
seriously, though... congratulations to both of you for a real accomplishment!
(Likewise to you and your wife, Rharv!)

48 good years is hard to top. Most don't make it that far. Others have started before you, so they're ahed. But you've passed many.
I wish that both of you stay on track. Congratulations.

Band-in-a-Box® 2024 Review: 4.75 out of 5 Stars!
If you're looking for a in-depth review of the newest Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows version, you'll definitely find it with Sound-Guy's latest review, Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows Review: Incredible new capabilities to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs.
A few excerpts:
"The Tracks view is possibly the single most powerful addition in 2024 and opens up a new way to edit and generate accompaniments. Combined with the new MultiPicker Library Window, it makes BIAB nearly perfect as an 'intelligent' composer/arranger program."
"MIDI SuperTracks partial generation showing six variations – each time the section is generated it can be instantly auditioned, re-generated or backed out to a previous generation – and you can do this with any track type. This is MAJOR! This takes musical experimentation and honing an arrangement to a new level, and faster than ever."
"Band in a Box continues to be an expansive musical tool-set for both novice and experienced musicians to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs, as well as an extensive educational resource. It is huge, with hundreds of functions, more than any one person is likely to ever use. Yet, so is any DAW that I have used. BIAB can do some things that no DAW does, and this year BIAB has more DAW-like functions than ever."
