Sam:

Congratulations on your 3 year anniversary.

I agree with you that it certainly is something to celebrate but I'm sure you'll find a way to celebrate and remain married.  ;)

Life is not the way it's supposed to be. It's the way it is.  The way we cope with it is what makes the difference.

Sam,

I am at 3 months post op ... I may try getting on a tricycle - but I would not even think of riding (balancing)  a bike yet ... heck knows a motorbike.

Way to go on the 3 year anniversary and the motorbike  8)!

Personally I think that the motorbike sounds more like a "male mid-life crises thing" rather than an "anniversary thing" (ok not a "midlife crises" a "midlife journey") … but that is just my gal  perspective (tease  ;) grin  ;D noogie  ::) LOL  :D)

Cheers,

Maybe for my 3 year anniversary I will get a bright red convertable and hit the Califonia Coast line... ;) :D

To  4

Not a midlife crisis, I"m too old !!!!(64)  Just feels good to ride.  I know how dangerous they are, but my balance is pretty good now, and the noise of the bike nullifies the tinnitus.

I totally agree...you have something to celebrate.  I'd suggest a private celebration, go have a drink (but don't drive...have a designated buddy  :).  Celebrate your achievement.   :)
