Hi Caliguy, wow, you are doing great. I can't imagine finding things like the box of condoms (with several missing) and not checking myself into the looney bin.

Your story is a great reminder for those of us hoping for a new R with our walk away/wandering away spouses, that there is lots more work even if they might come back. Thank you for the example you set.
