The ladies of the Real Housewives of Oklahoma<\/a> are having their McLinky Monday again. I’m participating on Tuesday so I’m calling it RHOK Tuesday. I hope they don’t get upset. You don’t want to make them mad. They may swarm.<\/p>\n

The theme of their meme this week is to share funny newlywed stories.<\/p>\n

I’m also going to this opportunity to post a wedding picture of my wife Sweetie.<\/p>\n

\"Heather<\/a><\/p>\n

You can see why I call her Sweetie. She has only got better looking over the years.<\/p>\n

On the other hand, look what she got in the bargain:<\/p>\n

\"Alan<\/a><\/p>\n

I wonder where those frames went? You can get new lens you for them you know. Oh well, just one of the many things of mine that disappeared the first couple years of our marriage. Along with my Coleman camp socks and camo pants. She still pleads innocent, in a smirking kind of way.<\/p>\n

The story she always brings up happened before we got married, the evening before as a matter of fact. We were at the rehearsal: Sweetie, me, her parents, my parents, and some friends and relatives from out of town. So, we got done with that and we headed off to the rehearsal dinner. Yeah, we did, my folks and I. I left Sweetie in the parking lot. Oops.<\/p>\n

She brings it up every now and then in a good natured way. I still feel bad about it. At least she doesn’t mention the worse things I did. I’m not either. I wouldn’t know where to start, nor when to end.<\/p>\n

Oh she put with a lot. My job for one thing. The energy business is either boom or bust. Well it kind of bust right after we were married. My employer closed the Oklahoma City office down and moved it to Weatherford, OK about an hour west of town. We lived about a half hour north of Oklahoma City. So we got married in September and we moved in November. Three years later we moved again, this time to Tulsa.<\/p>\n

She was very patient. I had to start from scratch on the whole married thing where two people are trying to start a new life together. All the standard stuff furnishing the house, coordinating schedules, the whole yin and yang of married life.<\/p>\n

And then there was the way I dressed. I was like into engineer beige if you know what I mean. If you don’t know what I mean then come see me sometime at work. I’ll take over where the engineers are. So she dragged me kicking and screaming into the land of not beige.<\/p>\n

And then the food thing. I was happy. I had a box of payday candy bars in the pantry, a case of beer in the refrigerator and Dominos on my speed dial. She actually cooked! Wow.<\/p>\n

She has always been there for me. She would need a week or more to write about all the antics I’ve pulled over the years.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
