I married ‘up’ economically, after a short 25-year courtship. She likes my stories of being "po’ " as to her middle class it seems a little far-fetched. Her family had good, union jobs, and her parents retired in good health.
She’s also amazing, well-adjusted and kind. She lived a life of strong social connection and stability and it really shows. She’s the house cat and I’m the barn cat.
In addition to her parents, her siblings are also great people. They’ve gone into accounting, teaching, fire-fighting and law enforcement, and they volunteer at animal rescues and fund-raising schemes. Truly wonderful folks.

In so many ways, I lucked out.
