Hubby just left for work… still no mention of our anniversary. We did discuss going to the states for the day (we’re about an hour or so from the Niagara border) but that isn’t something unusual for us, as we often take a run down to see if we can find anything nifty or different to buy. Lately it has been pretty depressing though – things end up being the same, or more expensive down there. My mother took her friend who is visiting from Calgary down yesterday, and they spent very little money, which is completely unusual for Mom.

Again, I digress. It’s May 29th, and our anniversary is June 1st. The experiment underway is to see if my darling husband will remember without any prompting from me.

You know what I just realized? My mother hasn’t said a word about it either. Granted, she has had a LOT on her plate with my brother’s divorce getting finalized, him moving into a new house with his kids (another story, for another day), and now company from out West for a week. Still, it is unusual for her not to mention anything.  If it were a “special” anniversary I might lean towards suspecting something is up, but 18, while getting up there, is not terribly noteworthy. Obviously. So I’m back to just working up a head of steam over hubby probably forgetting about it until the very last second (if he clues in at all).

Things that make you go… hrmmmm.
