Tim - You are VERY right. I definitely could have (should have) handled things better. Although, in the past, I woulda been pissy for the whole day instead of just an hour or so before I went to talk to him. It's just so hard to be a grown-up sometimes, darn it.
I'm sorry your wife hasn't been making any (visible) baby steps. When I told H the same this morning, he said he felt he *had* been making efforts, but that I just hadn't noticed. Hmmmm...something to ponder?
