I agree completely, DQ:

It wasn't all that long ago that I was here on this forum, reading about the recovery that IC and Mrs. IC were going through --> and wondering if I would ever see that kind of effort out of my own wife to improve our sex-life (for HERSELF as much as for US). But reading back over IC's early threads, I could also see the long road that it took him, and his wife, to get to the point that I was envious about.

That was nearly a year ago, and a LOT of progress has been made in that time. More than I dared hope for, but sought for anyway.

And yeah, it's likely that in a couple of weeks, I'll be back here whining or grumping about something or other, but my wife and I both hope that the roller coaster ride will start to settle out soon, with the dips and whirls a little further apart. I really don't post our successes here out of some desire to brag on my part -- I do it in order to document our progression, and show that it ain't an easy ride, with lots of ups and downs, but one which is well worth the effort.
