Highlighting is so expensive. I had no idea when I walked in to the salon last fall! lol But I love it. And yes, I am learning to spend a little money on myself as well. My needs were always last too.

Seems as though you are doing amazingly well. You apologized to H, let him talk, and are remaining strong.

My H sounds like yours. He is constantly unhappy, looks 100 yrs old, exhausted, stressed out, etc.
