You know how it is at the start of a relationship when you’re getting to know someone? You hear all their stories for the first time and you get to tell yours. Like the time in college marching band when I crashed my cymbals too close to my chest and smashed one of my you-know-whats. When I told that story, it got a great reaction. The first time. But after 35+ years of marriage, my hubby has heard it so many times, it’s safe to say he’d just as soon have a root canal.

That’s what it feels like...
