Hey Betsey - Thank you for the kind words, I'm finding my feet in the brave new world of the 'half full cup' - looking for positives is becoming easier all the time.
NG and I did have a fab weekend, we got through some paperwork, had dinner with some dear friends, and generally just hung together.
An interesting experiment with the paperwork - usually I sigh, moan and eventually got it done. NG stays well away. This time, as we sat together watching an old movie, I just went and got one thing (a dividend cheque to be posted to the bank) and he helped with the bank details. A few minutes later, I felt like tackling a payment query, and brought just that to the couch. He was interested and helped again. And so it went on for another 3 issues.
The difference? I was more relaxed because I did not have this huge build up to agony that I award myself each time there is documentation to sort out. And the 'no pressure' approach seems to work wonders with NG too, when I remarked that we actually got a lot done, his only comeback was that he did nothing, I did the work. (First time he has acknowledged this long time setup ) Of course, the opportunity to heap WOA for his support was well exploited
Another interesting development this morning, but I'm still processing that.
