VC/L,

finally got internet for the first time in 21 days!! Am in Alaska and of course cannot do justice to your post at the moment. Wanted to let you know I'm alive and thinking of you. I UNDERSTAND your choices & even though 60% of me agrees with you about taking the nobler route the other 40% of me wishes you'd demand more from your h and I worry about the respect issue. There can be a tendency in some, to treat others as badly as they'll put up with, or to behave as selfishly as one can get away with.

I have more to say and want to discuss my sitch but cannot due to zero privacy at the moment. But I missed having internest and tv and civilization. Oh, btw, still NO furniture....geez...

One quick note. Other than saying it's still warm an pretty here, thank God...I will say that the company H works for, and which I will soon be joining, is much Less stable than I thought. H definitely senses this. We may not stay a full year. Can you believe that? I mean, we could be wrong b/c companies do endure transitions and this company could take off. But the irony is that H is the one noticing and not just me, that all is not well or perfect. HE is getting frustrated and I am biting my tongue. But a part of me wants to strangle him too. Most of his "new found" observations were made a year ago by... ME....but he just couldn't hear it then....
wth?? I have to try hard to step back and let him discover that in the end, a job really is just a job. Money is money, self worth is not net worth....etc etc
