SNAP - I do the exact same thing - saying things that makes H think he's inadequate. I will join you on that 180 too! Have you read How to fix your marriage without talking about it? Its all about THAT one.

I'm happy for you that you are going out tonight and that he got it all figured out by himself. Just ENJOY. Don't forget to thank him at the end - I'm sure you won't but it will re-enforce his success.

Made me laugh the "accountant" title. I have a greetings card that is a picture of a man and a woman doing paperwork and she is holding up a long list. And underneath is written "And this is a list of all the times you were wrong"!!!!

Enjoy your "birthday" evening.
