because of the steak and the peanut butter (not at the same time).
You made me laugh at this one.
This post was very sad, but very good for you too. Sometimes, meltdowns are good. You can get it out, then be stronger after the storm. I totally understand the Mallowmars, totally. There were so many little and big things H used to do for me, now so many are gone. I am like you, I do them for myself, but its hard, so hard. Triggers.....sigh.......

Suddenly the phrase "she means the world to me" seems so empty. It's not the world, it's everything in it. I couldn't come close to listing them but I'm sure everyone is familiar with the list - the smile, the laughter, the dreaming, the gifts, the shoulder to lean on, the "i'm proud of what you've accomplished", the thank you's and the "when are you coming up from work?".
Yes, everything. The whole package. I admit, I didn't see or appreciate many of these things. I always assumed they would be there, and I didn't need to work for our marriage. I felt we had the 'secret' connection. When marriages were falling down around us, I (and he also states) thought we were the solid pillars. I am guilty of 'backburning' H and our marriage, but never, EVER with the intention of hurting him or ending our R.
I hope your party was fun and that you had a nice weekend.
