Day 25: Vino

Today, May 16th, is my 19 year anniversary.  Wholly Crap!!  Hubby and I have been together for 22 years.  That is INSANE.  In some ways it seems like no time at all, and in other ways it seems like forever.  I love him, I hate him - the cycle of marriage.

We went out to dinner, didn't have a glass of wine, but I wanted one (I don't like drinking more than a few times a week - too many empty calories).  Should have.  As we were finishing dessert (carrot cake - because that is what our wedding cake was) he took a phone call, and went outside for the remainder of the meal.  The odd thing is, I really wasn't mad.  I should have been.  Maybe after all this time, I just don't put too much emphasis on one part of one meal - it's the entire life that counts.

Pre Challenge - Calla Lilies

I drew these last week, so they do not really count as my "Challenge", but I wanted to share anyway.

The Calla Lily is my favorite flower! My wedding bouquet was made of Calla Lilies. They remind me of 18 years ago, when I lived in the Sunset District of San Francisco (Judah and 19th Ave). Every day I would go for a run through Golden Gate Park, and there are sections along Martin Luther King Jr. Drive where the Calla Lilies grow wild.

This is not a delicate flower - it is strong and hard core. Calla Lily is blatantly sexual in the way it combines male and female perfectly. Enough said.
