I'm so glad that bringing your feelings out on the listening issue worked! He does seem to be switching on the hearing aid now...maybe offer some words of affirmation to reward him for this?
I wish I could say I was a terrible shopper, but I am not. I LOVE to shop as much as H does. The only difference is, I know my limits where he feels that he has none. The credit card people OFFERED him all that money, it isn't real money...it never has to be paid back...wait, what the hell is this bill for?????
It is so funny that you mentioned referring to your husband as ‘H’ and having to catch yourself. Last night, I had a dream in which I actually conversed with H and S calling them H and S. It was very freaky, but I’ll take it to mean that this DBing is now in my blood. If I start actually calling him H…he may have to loose his anonymity on the board!
