All of this is really interesting. If I may, I'll ramble a little.
My parents were married for 52 years before my dad passed away. He always worked long hours as was not home during many daylight hours, especially in my younger years. He retired at about age 68 but worked part time sacking groceries at a local store for a couple of years. After that he was home 24/7. I heard my mother telling some friends one time that she used to wonder how someone could be married for 40 plus years and all at once get a divorce. After my dad was under foot for a couple years she stated that she understood it now.
Now as for my marriage, I have the feeling that my wife and I are pretty comfortable with one another. We have both been married before and divorced (each of us was the "injured party" in the previous marriage). We got married in 1979 and never argue about anything. Life is good to us, we are both in good health and working. We have a few common interests and do some things together. She is really good about not complaining if I want to stay up all night at the firehouse working on one of the trucks (I'm a member of a volunteer fire dept). I don't chase around drinking and she doesn't either.
I guess what I'm trying to say is we both understand the other's needs and try to play nice with each other. We have seen and experienced the results of bickering and have made the decision to avoid that. Do we never get upset at the other? Sure! I go to my shop and she looks at ads in magazines. Or sometimes she calls her sister and listens to her complaints about her husband. We just don't feel like we have time to waste fussing at each other.

Today's Featured Article - 12-Volt Conversions for 4-Cylinder Ford 2000 & 4000 Tractors - by Tommy Duvall. After two summers of having to park my old 1964 model 4000 gas 4 cyl. on a hill just in case the 6 volt system, for whatever reason, would not crank her, I decided to try the 12 volt conversion. After some research of convert or not, I decided to go ahead, the main reason being that this tractor was a working tractor, not a show tractor (yet). I did keep everything I replaced for the day I do want to restore her to showroom condition.
