Yeah, I agree. With us, I guess the preacher proposed for us when he said we should get married. I don't even remember a proposal. Now, someone could say my husband should have done it up regardless, and maybe he should have, but it wasn't really in our plans to get married at that time, we just figured we should do what the preacher said and I don't find fault with him in that and never have. I wish we would have had all of that. No rings. No proposal. No honeymoon. No bridesmaids. No flower girl. No family.
My husband and I will be married for 25 years this July. We had big plans for a 25th wedding anniversary trip. Then, my husband had to have unexpected kidney stone surgery and our renters didn't pay their rent and caused a lot of damage to our house and ran out on their lease. We have investment money.....but if we spend that, we don't have it to invest. So, it really bothers me that unless we sell this house, we are not having that trip. It really bothers my husband too, maybe even more than it bothers me.
Just venting here. Please help us pray that we sell that place so we can have some good things.
