Dear White_Iris,

It is good that you are taking care of yourself. We all need a change of pace once in a while or the routine and such can wear us down and cause us to lose perspective on life.

My spouse and I are going to do a vaca for a week. Living for 6 days in a one-room cabin. Right now that is either extremely brave of us or sheer insanity - or maybe both. We are actually doing some better in the whole marriage thing. We are learning to not expect things from spouse that he doesn't have to give and we are learning not to judge him. Looking at what he has to deal with in living with us is making us kinder and gentler toward him.

Sorry I went off on me when this was a reply to you, Iris. You are a kind and supportive person and I want you to have what you need. See Ya,

Leslie/Pixies
