Mostly good so far...

[toughlover]

Thanks, cat. I've missed ya. But had to get away for a while.

Things are really getting better everyday. It's not like I expected, though. In fact, so little of this has happened anywhere close to what I expected, really.

There's a lesson there, somewhere, and we can really make more misery for ourselves (and we, of all people, don't need any more than we got!) by insisting that everything happen the way we think it should. That's not to say that we shouldn't expect to have commitments and boundaries obeyed.

We have mostly good times and fun now. As I always say, it ain't perfect. I still carry a lot of disappointment and deal with resentment. I understand why people quit. This can be really tough.

But our vows have to mean something...now more than ever. We have been blessed and, I believe, rewarded for our obedience and our marriage is really more loving and, well, friendlier than ever.

I'm not walking on sunshine or anything. Just mostly happy with my wife.
