Hi LITB, Piecing IS HARD. Arguments won't go away, it is more how you handle it that changes. You know, for a while, after Retrouvaille we had a huge backslide. In a way, it was because I started having expectations again.... and it almost sunk us.

But slowly, what we learned from Retro (and its almost been a year now) has been sinking in...as well as what I have learned from DBing. I have learned to bac away from potential confict....to wait until its a safer time...to choose my battles...and so has H.

Keep going....you take care!

P.S. Are you still in the Bay area? I am volunteering for the SF Retro group.
