Hi Klau, Getting a MC in L.A.? Or any part of CA? I'd be so scared of that in itself! I was in San Diego 14 years ago for some job training, that was the first time I saw gas pricing starting with a "2".
Yeah- La La Land is fun. My commute is 70 miles a day and my kids school is 10 miles from the house. we're all crazy living here.

I'm not leaving if it comes to that unless we really work through a plan, but at the moment my mind is on working hard to make it work. I don't think she would take the kids and run...not her style.
You have to kick your communication out of "Auto-Pilot". Those cycles where you have the same fight over and over again got you here, so 180 on that.

And why shouldn't she be fearful the you/we won't change? It's been this way for a while right? So you have to show her it can change, not convince it can.
