My heart goes out to you, blallah. Your posts always gave me hope that somewhere out there, the mythical unicorn of a "happy marriage" still exists.

Your whole PP family is here for you.

On a related note. I was just at a funeral y'day, an anomaly in itself because in 22 years, I've only been to five of them and one was my mom's. Anyway, as the young widow was wrapping up her remarks for the congregation, she closed with this.

"So when all the couples here get home tonight, and start arguing over the small, petty things life throws your way, remember to keep it all in perspective. And just be thankful you even have someone to argue with. Someday you're going to miss them very much."

Life is short folks, live everyday in the moment because it could be your last.

I think more than anyone else who posts on this board, Mingo has shown us the path.

Call anytime you wanna share some water Mingo. I'll bring the Scotch.
