Hi BND... Sorry that you have so much to deal with - the kids being unhappy about your H's absence at Christmas and also your own unhappiness about that, plus all the shopping, doctor's visits, etc. You're doing well and it's nice that your H is showing appreciation for your work! I'm sure he'll more than make up for all this when he finally moves back permanently. I can see how you are there for so many people, including all of us on this BB. You're very much appreciated...
