".. But from the goals section in one of the books, I mentally noted that I would know things were getting better when he starts to initiate contact......"

My H has been doing this since March--just calls to say "I did this and I am not sure it went thru, can you check and see if the payment went thru on the computer........" Silly little stuff that he could do on the phone HIMSELF!!!
