I am sorry it's such a confusing time for you, Jak. I still believe Piecing is worth it!
Meanwhile, I'll try to find the name of the book that I mentioned earlier about "exercises" you and your H can do together (things like a "vision for your marriage", etc). Maybe he could put things down on paper easier than he could talk. There were some things you do separately and then put them together and see where they overlap. Just an idea...
Meanwhile, I hope you will have a relaxing, worry-free weekend! Matilda
