Aint' over till its over. 5% would seem like a lot to many on this board. Sure would to me.

Perspective. Comes with time. When every day seems like a week and every week seems like a year it is difficult to keep things in perspective. My W has been gone 9 weeks. Not much time in the scheme of things. She is probably not coming back, almost definately not. But I would be a fool to close and lock the door. I cannot hope for it or have expectations. But I am not going to refuse her contacts either.

Just a thought.
