Thank you Jennifer, I know you are correct and I have told my friends and our children. My difficulty is that my husband wants to keep it quiet - he doesn't know I have told people and that makes me feel disloyal and I feel guilty about that ! However I know I need their support and understanding.
We have had a lovely luncheon out today and my husband has really enjoyed it .
I am trying to get my husband to join a men in shed group- I feel sure he would enjoy that, but is not being very responsive! 50 years is a long time and our love has never waned - I am grateful for that.
