Thanks for doing such a great job of journaling here. With my H newly home ( ) I have been lurking and found your thread to be a great resource for me.
Good luck in getting the globe removed. My goal is to ask my H to put his wedding ring back on. He didn't remove it when he left - but many years prior to that. So we shall see - I figured I could tell him that is what he can give me for my birthday next month...
Anyway, I'm going to backtrack and read more of your sitch. Thanks again.
