NOF and I have known each other through at least a dozen moves (usually involving pouring rain or 100+ degree heat and including the time his ex-girlfriend/live-in brandished a gun at him and "his thug friends" while we moved his crap out of the house). We were friends through his first marriage to the raging alcoholic who I affectionately call his practice wife that both his dad and I warned him not to marry (though he claims differently). He was the best man at my wedding to The Queen. He was the one trying to tell me a little time with M&M was better than no time with her (something I REALLY didn't want to hear at the time) during some of the darkest times when it looked as if we weren't going to be allowed to keep her. We've been there for each other through family joys and losses. Needless to say, we know each other like brothers.
K3 is a sweet lady who has patiently waited for NOF to get his head screwed on straight enough to figure out that they were good for each other, and I was only too happy to stand up for them at the wedding and give the toast at the reception.
They called their wedding "The Inevitable". As I said during the toast, I wish them "The Expected": Long Life Together, Much Love and Lots of Laughter.
Congratulations my friends.
Congrats to the happy couple!
ReplyDeleteKeads, they are happy. She's positively giddy.
Deletebuddy - they look very happy and he should be soooo glad that she waited him out. he will become a better man for it and they will live very happy lives as husband and wife....but more importantly, companions through life. i wish them all the best!
ReplyDeleteyour friend,

kymber, he SHOULD be glad...there were a couple of times when he came close to getting kicked in the head for being stupid.
