Hi there UnCool. First off, congrats to you on going on the vacation regardless and planning on having a good time. I've just had to do this myself, so I know how hard it can be to stay strong when all you want is your spouse to be with you.

Glad to hear that you two are maintaining the status quo. While it's not significant growth, more importantly it is not regressing, and that means you are holding your own and not losing your cool. This is so hard to do, that I as a newbie am totally impressed to hear that you are maintaining. Kind of like weight loss, I think maintenance is actually far harder, and far more important than the actual losing of the weight, because if you can't make the changes permanant, you are just fooling yourself and your body - right? So I instead of seeing this merely as the "status quo" I would say that you are rebuilding her trust in you ever so slowly by showing you are a man of your word, continuing to do what have been doing and she is continuing to take it all in. I don't know your story at all yet, but I can't think of a rlsp I've seen here yet that couldn't benefit by showing this sort of consistency!

Thanks for showing me that it can be done, and that there are strong people out there who continue to work hard at this even though they aren't seeing an immediate payoff. This is hard work, and the longer I'm doing it and trying to keep my cool, the more I appreciate it.
