I tell ya Dr. Love....that little lady has been doing some thinking. I know none of us know the future, but I think she is starting to see some light. I really have very high hopes for Retro. All along your biggest problems.....and I mean BOTH of you....has been finding a way to communicate with one another. I am just so excited because I think you are going to get taught this and then your M will just start to move forward so fast.
I having been going through a really rough patch recently and yours and Yoyo's and SallyM's sitchs are just keeping me going at the moment....for goodness sakes I am just tearing up in my eyes thinking about it...(well I don't have a soldier and I am a chick!! )
Have a wonderful trip.
BTW...about the pressie thing....I am sure your W didn't mean any harm in giving your son something for his birthday and not saying anything...I sometimes do that because I feel guilty or even because the kids enjoy the illicitness of the secrecy....if you get what I mean. What I am trying to say is that it wasn't done with the intention of slighting you.
I am sure your W has massive respect for the way you have handled all this....and whilst she hasn't been able to work you have stopped smoking and held so many things together....you are a true man
