OK, lwb is not the only one who thinks that you have crawled inside of our heads! My H seems even farther away than yours...he won't even touch me, actually recoils the few times I have touched his arm. It has steadily (and rapidly) declined since Feb.
But we do have to focus on the blessings we do have, don't we? You are right in both of your reflections about tomorrow and the trials we see in humanity around us. It seems that our whole mess is a huge lesson on different perspectives, and what we have control over in life.
You do have control over your environment--and the house decorating sounds great!
