Happiness with Micki
As the author of “Happiness in Eight Steps” I basically am a happy guy, so happiness with Micki just made is so much more fun.
Fun is what Micki and I do. We started dating in May and got married April 11 of the following year. When you have two dominate talkers it doesn’t take long to make a decision.
Making quick decision must be OK because we have been married a long time. How long have we been married, long enough to have two grown sons and five grand children, that’s how long.
Happiness with Micki is easy because she has a great sense of humor and a heart as big as all out doors. That doesn’t mean that you can run over her. She will stand her ground on issues that important to her. I have learned that over the years.
I think I have given you same of the reasons that Micki and I have been married a long time, but there is more. She does not want to get into my business and I don’t get involved in hers. That mean we give each other a lot of space.
My friends will ask me what is Micki doing today and my standard answer is I don’t know. If they press me I’ll say she’s playing golf or doing something else. For sure when our cleaning people come I know she is not at our house.
That brings up an old story. Jan, Mick’s best friend’s mother advised both of them, that when the cleaning person comes, you notice I didn’t say cleaning lady, to stay home and help them clean because they will get so much more done.
That idea fell on death ears with Micki and Jan because as soon as the people come to clean they are out of there. Micki told me told me they clean what she wants cleaned and that’s good enough for her.
Now you can see how happiness with Micki is so easy. I let her do her thing and she lets me do mine. Oh that is not to say we don’t do a lot of things together we do.
We spent four weeks going around the world and it wasn’t till we got to India that we knew anyone. So we can spend a lot of time together without too much tension.
If you have a sense of humor and learn to let things happen without having control of the situation you will find out that happiness with Micki is real easy.
