Well no shagging yet but otherwise good. We've had a very very long run of no downward cycles. I think that's over finally. It's been good for a long time. She seems to trust me again. I can tell she feels safe when I take charge. As much as she fought for wanting to be an equal decision maker and all that I can tell that when things are the pits she wants me to save the day.

I've certainly learned that women don't really say what they really mean. But I guess that's ok as long as you understand what they really want.

Thanks BJ, TJ, and Sven. You all helped set me on the path to discovering that.

So our life is back to a chivalrous classic relationship. I've always been the guy to open doors and walk on the outside of the sidewalk sort of thing. But for a very long time she would show her distaste for that. I'd open the car door for her and she'd grumble about it. She'd always want to drive when we went places, etc. Now she's thinking it's ok. I think the women's libber has decided that being a lady is a pretty good thing.

I think those little things are very representative of everything else.

So we haven't got to the shagging part yet but that's been more due to life circumstance lately. We've had a series of those terrible things that happen in life lately. Almost lost her Dad, a financial dilemna, then I got sick and now she's sick. There's a good couple of months for ya.

So she still sleeps on the couch but at the moment I'm going to blame it on the nasty bug she's got.

So although the last few months have been filled with challenges and keeping me from getting any, they've also allowed for me to take charge in those challenges and pull us through. That's been a good thing.

So I'm pretty centered and feeling good. And I've just been faced with a new set of challenges. Good stuff but things that are going to take some maneuvering. And the great thing is that she has just stepped back to see how I'll handle them rather than fighting me to make sure she has a say.

TJ, Sven if you read this I think you know what's going on here and I thank you

It's my ride.
