Thank you for your understanding of the reality here.
I completely understand about the man/money issue. He felt forced into this house, but did it anyhow to make me happy. He ignored our taxes, and caused a huge financial mess. We are still in our home, driving the same cars (he got a newer one last year actually). Since the blow up in 12/07, I have not requested a vacation (used to do caribbean vaca's yearly), am driving my existing car (typically would have bought a new one by now), and offered to sell the house (we had an off-the-cuff person of interest, but it fell through), and move to a "normal" 4-bedroom 2-story.
I'm doing what I can. I make a good living. H does, as well. I've cut way back on shopping. Just wish I could do more...

The average woman would rather have beauty than brains, because the average man can see better than he can think.
