Hey TF, It has been a while, I just went back a little to catch up on you. The baby steps are definitely happening and it sounds like they are happening often.
I think we get used to the positives steps so much, that we start to expect them and become disappointed when there is a set back or the steps are not happening as fast as we would like.
Hang in there, you are doing great.

Expose yourself to your deepest fear; after that, fear has no power, and the fear of freedom shrinks and vanishes. You are free.
MHL, you are right about the positive steps. When you see enough of them it is hard to not expect them and then when they don't happen . . . my H took a few days off from forward movement it seems but now maybe back on a bit.
I just realized something after a conversation I had with my H a few days ago. The man who for the past couple of years was planning on quitting his job, walking away, never looking back (I was apparently not the only source of his unhappiness) and was so ready to walk in to his boss's office and quit was telling me about plans in the future for work etc. He is thinking ahead and planning ahead rather than saying is walking away. It took a couple of days for it to hit me - I think that seems like a big MLC step forward.
