Happy Doper Milestones thread

I got engaged last week.

Done! (As documented [in a poorly-executed joke attempt] here)

Congrats!

I hope all of you wedded folk have as much fun in your marriage as my wife does in ours
Married forty years and love her more every day

Man that is beautiful.

Hey, I became a dad at age 55, and it’s working out great. Late 30s is nothing, people become parents all the time at that age.

Congratulations!!

Rhiannon8404 and I were married 20 years ago today!

Happy Anniversary, sweetie girl!

Ah! I have a good one. I got my grades back and I have straight A’s this semester, in all three courses! That makes my GPA for the semester a lovely 4.0 and for the year, about a 3.95 (two A- last semester.)

Woot!

That is a good one - congrats! ETA: What do you want to be when you grow up?

In one week, it will be 31 years for the Lovely and Talented Mrs. Shodan and myself. To celebrate, we may stay up past 8:30pm.

Regards,
Shodan

Congrats on your grades, Anaamika!

Happy (early) Anniverary, Shodan and Mrs. Shodan!

May of 93 was a good month to get married. My two friends who also got married that month are all still together with their husbands. Among us, we have 60 yrs of marriage.

Happy Anniversary, Suburban Plankton! (why yes, I do call him that at home :wink: )

Supposedly Vince Lombardi got into bed with his wife one winter’s night.

She said, “Jesus Christ, your feet are cold!”

Vince responded, “My dear, in bed you can call me Vince.”

Yesterday, my number one child graduated high school with honors (top 20% of her class). She will attend Washington University in St Louis.

Very proud papa.

On March 29th, my son said to my boyfriend at dinnertime that he should stay to eat with us, since he is pretty much one of the family now. It touched bf so much that the asked me later to make note of the date. We joked that our fledgling relationship became “official” then. Last night, he asked me to marry him, and we will make it officially official on March 29th of next year.

I signed up for the Dope in May, a decade ago.

Aw. And congrats!

I paid off my mortgage yesterday. Seven years early.

Wow. Congrats!

Shodan

This weekend, my 20 year old daughter is graduating from High School. She has ADHD, Bipolar Disorder, and Learning Disabilities. She hated school. The entire thing was a slog through molasses.

Sunday, she will be presented with her diploma. I am so proud of her I could (will) cry. :smiley:

There must be something in my eye.

IndyEllen Yay for your kid !!

Yesterday The FemBot™ graduated from college. Triple Major in the same field of study. Honors on all three degrees. Summa Cum Laude.

Proud Papa :slight_smile:
