I came back here and smiled as I read posts from older & (most likely, soon-to-be) new friends....

Husband actually made himself dinner w/o making me nuts (I had cut my finger and needed to rest my hand), and w/o making faces when I informed him he was on his own...a a big step forward for him AND me....(I am usually miserable at sticking up for myself and my own needs)

I woke up w/o a cold! Yay! Was certain I was coming down with one....
