Like me nearly choking to death, turning 50 and going through menopause all in a few months.

I want to know how you got thru menopause in a few months?? what's the secret you're not sharing?

but he's never been any different way

ewww, I cringed when I read that. I look at H and think the very same thing. Then I look at myself and wonder if he thinks the same thing about me. Have I changed in any way? If I/me/myself really really change what I am doing, wouldn't that in effect change the whole dynamic of whatever situation I would get into with H? Could it be that same thing with you? I've been really thinking about that for myself.

Congrats on the job. It sounds like the area where you have a real passion. You go girl!
