mdu,

These posts take me back a few months, to a time when you swore your H didn't have it in him to step up to the plate and lead in your M.

It reminds me of how much we ALL have to learn ... because we really know so little about our own relationships when we find ourselves here, even though we think (or assume) we have our spouses figured out.

Not that *I* matter in the grand scheme of things, but you are blowing me away, more and more, with how you are dealing with things these days. You aren't losing your cool. You are choosing - even with repeated opportunities - not to push or guilt H like you've done in the past. You are rationalizing, thinking forward instead of looking back. You are giving H the wheel.

It's great to see a new, improved mdu.

I'm betting H feels the same.

You are KILLIN' it!
