And despite my joking here, I do like to have her around. :) I hope everything turns out for the best for you, your wife, and your family.B.G.

Same road. Going down was a bit stressful, coming back was not.<BR/><BR/>Difference was that in my case on the way down I was still very separated from my wife...each of in separate relationships and doing really well getting along with each other as we organized things for divorce. But, on the the way back a day later...we had both had epiphanies and were so absolutely HOT for each other and ready to dump these "others" and start our married life completely over again that the trip back was utter BLISS.<BR/><BR/>Whew.

DesTot does the same thing, usually when we're gridlocked in traffic. I'd like to explain another law of science to her--that two masses can't occupy the same space at once. But, naturally, she'd like me to at least <I>try</I> to see if they can. *Sigh* Not on my insurance, sweetie.Desmamahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04799831623274044784noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14843205.post-53932908081843073232008-03-31T10:45:00.000-06:002008-03-31T10:45:00.000-06:00LOL!!!
