Carlton and The Ladies.

Carlton at his Junior Prom. Her name was Sue, she made her dress and she was his first love. – 1952? Not knocking her for making her dress. We did that back then.

Most likely high school. Same wall as Junior Prom shot.

Carlton and EmmyDee Wedding – 1958?

Carlton and Girl Friend Myrna – June 6, 1972. Myrna and I had a strange relationship. She was his girlfriend but he was still married to Emmy Dee. Myrna was one of the loves of his life and he kept in touch with her. In later years by email. But, Carlton didn’t do email. So, I did all the email sending and receiving. She sent me some pictures of Carlton from their time together when he was dying. Myrna came with her husband and kids to visit Carlton. The husband, kids and I went to the zoo so they could have some time together.

Peg and Carlton Wedding – Jan 5, 1994. And here we are on the day I was hijacked into getting married. I was the Ninja Bride. Carlton was just smug. Because he tricked me into getting married. From that day forth, Carlton called me “my current wife”. Well, I am now “his last wife”.

But most importantly – Today is Carlton’s 52nd AA Anniversary.

Gratitude

I am the luckiest old woman on the planet.

I braved the freezing outside weather for a fine winter day walk. Also, made soup. Folded some cranes to go in the BobBox. Failed to complete everything on my ToDo List for today.
