She waited all day for me to remember on my own. Ashamed, I quickly made arrangements to take her to dinner at a restaurant chain where we went on our first date (a date for which I was 3 hours late lol). We had a great time and a good laugh at my expense. The rest of the story is that we were married on March 9th. This morning I noticed today is the 9th so I wished her a happy anniversary. She cocked her head and said it’s not our anniversary. I waited as she got up to speed and blushed. We chuckled at our old age symptoms. I confessed I still would have forgotten. Now she’s claiming she’s double dipping on our anniversary dinner. Big Grin

Just thought I’d share.

When I forgot our 25th, Mrs Q didn't even notice. Smile

I have set up reminders on my phone with bells and alarms to remind me. See, I love my life, and try not to do anything to risk it!

Make it your amateur AMA racing number and put it in your username. I’ve heard that can help. Wink

One of the best wedding gifts we received was a decorative stoneware plate with wedding date. It is prominently displayed so we neither one have any excuse. One year we went to Sam's Club for pizza.

Same here. Have it set to alert me a week before and two days before.

I recommend pre-ordering and pre-paying a flower delivery service for each anniversary. If you pay too far in advance, though, you'll probably get a laugh while you're in heaven....

She waited 3 hours for you on your first date? Wow. You are one lucky guy!

Congratulations on your anniversary.

Ours is New Year's Eve, and we still tend to forget it.

After 49 years, we're pretty much past worrying about it.

Of the two of us, the missus is the one to forget the anniversary. Any other memorable date she is on top of, but for some reason our marriage date eludes her.

I haven’t forgotten one yet, but life happens and things slip through the cracks. I travelled for so much of our married life that my wife is conditioned to celebrate our days on weekends. We’ll have our 30th later this year (feels like 100), so I probably should put an alert on my calendar now. Happy anniversary! I’m sure your wife will forgive you and you celebrate today.

I forgot ours this year ~ it's even on Valentines Day.
I guess it was because a few days prior, my wife was in the hospital with a broken leg. Frown
I think something else was on my mind. Eek

Always thought anniversaries were a bit dumb. I don't need a day to recall that I got married.

This is why for years I kept various "Hallmark" cards in my briefcase in case I forgot. Also whenever I had to travel for more than a few days, I always had a loving, thinking about you card that I would mail home on the first day away.
