Thanks mk. I wish I were only on month 2. If I had found the db'ing techniques then maybe things would be different now. I just feel the longer he is away the harder it is for him to come home.

It's early for you. I would just dig in and do the db'ing. What happens for me is that I feel hopeless and I want to work on us or just move on. I am at that stage. H is not at that stage. He is not ready to work on us and I don't know when and if he will be ready. That is why I think I need to shake things up a bit.

I know I should be gratefull for the little progress. I just want more. Thanks for reminding me of the cake, I see that now being huge. H just does not cook. I don't expect him to. I am hoping he is missing my home cooked meals. He always referred to them as restaurant quality. Maybe I could invite him to dinner this week. Deep down it sounds good, but on the surface I don't want to.

Thanks for your reply. Good luck with your situation, but it's too early for you to give it all up.
