in Caring For a Spouse or Partner
DH lost his mom about 5 years ago. Today he was feeling sad about it. 

DH "I never thought she'd go away."
Me "I know, I feel the same way about my mom." (My mom's still alive)
DH "Whose your mom?"
Me "Janet"
DH "She is? When did that happen?"
Me "About the same time I was born."

It just made me giggle.

    This conversation happened some time ago between my wife of 44 years and me. 

    Her: I can’t find him.

    Me: Can’t find who?

    Her: Your husband

    Me: My husband?

    Her: Yes, your husband.

    Me: I’m not gay

    Her: You’re not?

    I still laugh over it,
