Funny! I'm not married, but these statements sound about right to me. :) The first one with the picture cracked me up right away! :D

Stopping by from SITS...again! I know I've been here before. ;)

Love your blog! I got here via swapping tea with you:)

Speaking of marriage and stamps, I recently got a stamp in a trade that says:

You don't marry someone you can live with, you marry the person who you cannot live without.

I can tell by your hubby, that you did just that!

LOL those are great Jeannie-I would have a hard time picking a fav!

Ann On and On... said...

Those are great!! I was going to write a post today on bridging the communication gap between men and women. :) *I'm not sure it is possible.

Hooray for marraige! We are celebrating our 9 year in a few weeks. I think both partners ought to give a lot more thought to what the other one thinks and feels. But I agree that usually in a marriage where the man tries very hard to keep his wife happy the marriage works out very well!

Lurker? Who me? LOL, I swear it wasn't moi!! I'm a comment junkie:D

I love the marriage quotes! I have to share a story about a woman who lives near where I work.
She keeps a sign on a post out in her front yard....the message is ever-changing...and usually is something snarky, but I admit, humorous.
I drive by everyday and you better believe I slow down enough to read it. Last week it read:

Marriage isn't a word. It's a sentence.

I LOL'd & pondered what her husband must've done....:)
Happy day to you Jeannie!

Vickie said...

He he!! Yup!

Intense Guy said...

Sometimes I'm thrilled beyond belief to be unmarried...

Grand Pooba said...

That LBJ was wrong about a whole heckuva lot, but he speaks the truth in this quote. If Mama Ain't Happy, Ain't Nobody Happy. My mantra. Happy Saturday Sharefest!
