Whew! I glad you turned towards the positive by the end of your post. I think you have things in their proper perspective. If I was your wife, I would be in 7th heaven... but then I'm an incurable romantic. I associate music with events in my life, too, so I understand completely what happened to you.

Do you have a program where you can create "slideshows"? I have a couple that could put the pictures and music together... which is something I want to do eventually, but mostly with pictures of my kids and grandkids. This may be getting off the subject, but if I were you, I'd put your emotions to good use by creating something for posterity. What a wonderful gift it would be for a 25th wedding anniversary for your wife!

You mentioned "obsession" in your post. I would definetely stay aware of that, just to stay "healthy" about the project; you know, "balanced"? (Eck! I hate the word, sometimes! ) This might help your wife, too, to accept the new-found romance. From where I sit, you need to make time for that to help bring the marriage back to where it used to be.

I envy you your project, your feelings, your ability to express them, and mostly I envy your wife. Wish my husband would find some romance in his soul.
