Like you posted on tree's thread, we've been at it for awhile. I still can't figure out if that's good or bad
You say patience is still your biggest problem. I think that patience hit's it's lowest when we start trying to get our R back, and through a lot of effort and determination, we reach our "patience peak."
Then at some point, we say, "Will this ever end? I've been at this for "man o man, 16 months? "
Just gotta hang in there, eh?
And enjoy the good times. It really has got better in 15 ½ months, hasn't it?
