1. How long have you been together? Four years (yes, we're newbies). 2. Who pursued who? She pursued me, and I tried like hell to discourage her.
3. Do you wear any type of wedding/commitment ring? Yes. Wanna see them?
4. What was the hardest thing about learning to live together? When we hit a bump I need to retreat, she needs to embrace.
5. Who takes longer to get ready in the morning? We are about the same.

10. If you have pets, who usually does litter box or poop patrol? No pets.
11. Which one of you is more likely to answer the phone when it rings? Neither of us. We let the answering machine pick up because we still get a lot of debt collector calls for my ex-husband.

19. Who handles the checkbook/pays the bills? Courtney.
20. What was your last fight/disagreement about? I suggested she apply for a full-time job in IT at the college and that really hurt her feelings.

Your rings are beautiful!
I am always interested in what other couples fight about. Bing and I tend to only argue about money or sloppiness. I am a saver, but she hangs on to every penny with a tight fist. She is a total slob, I am neat. That alone has caused many, many fights.
My rings are lost. :(

We rarely fight. We've had the most disagreements over Amanda. That's gotten better. But that is definitely our biggest source of discussion. *I* think it was also our hardest adjustment.

I may control the remote usually. But not on race day! LOL!
Simply, I'm so sorry to hear about your rings! That must be heart-breaking. And I understand how adjusting to life with a stepchild is difficult. There are so many dynamics going on, and it takes a while to sort it all out. Hope the rings turn up soon.
Major bummer on the rings. :-(
And that is sooo sweet that you let Trop ... drive the remote on race day.
I think I might have left my rings at the hotel on Saturday. :(
Are you serious about meals planned for the whole year? I am not worthy...
The whole year. Breakfast, lunch, and dinner. With grocery lists for every meal.
I was finished by November! :D
(I'm already working on next year.)
Your rings are so gorgeous(and so are all your other wedding photos! You two are lovely together. Yay love!)
