Happy Anniversary

Here we are on our 38th wedding anniversary - on our way to the Manhattan Restaurant in La Jolla for the best canelloni in town.

Here are some of my secrets to a successful marriage:

1. Never, ever, ever threaten divorce.

2. Never stomp out of an argument - give yourselves 1 hour to cool off, then try again to work it out (and don't think YOU have to always win).

3. No yelling and screaming - he's in the room. He can hear you. Calm down.

4. Treat him the way you want him to treat you.

5. Mark his calendar for important dates (like birthdays or any other time you expect a gift) so he's less likely to forget. If he still forgets, buy yourself a gift and give him a big kiss thanking him for it.

I want him to be happy, he wants me to be happy. It's as simple as that.
