My absolutely favorite part of the video was the comment "he should be happy we paid the bill!"

TIPS= To Insure Proper Service. My wife was a waitress and worked for years at IHOP. She learned a very long time ago how and why most people leave tips. Now when you go into an IHOP restaraunt with small children, they give you crayons and a place mat the children can color on. MY wife carried crayons in her apron for this, long before IHOP ever started doing it. My wife could leave the house to go to work and be so mad at me for one reason or the other, and get to work and treat her customers like they were the most special people in the world. Yes my wife knew what she was doing and was a very very special person.

Kristi, we were married for right at 30 yrs. I have some of her family close by, which is a blessing. I chose to visit her gravesite on Thanksgiving and be thahkful for the years we shared together. I miss almost everything about her. We fussed like everyone else, but you don't really know and can't imagine what the loss encompass' until you have lossed the main persson in your life. This is making me feel really bad, but I am happy to share the thoughts with someone who seems to care. I miss everything about her.
