[QUOTE="Brother Jim, post: 1583044, member: 3918"] Mine was the exact opposite of yours. I got sick and wound up disabled in 05 ( just ten years earlier than planned) and my sweetie kept working until the Corporation she worked for went belly up. Then she was home ALL the time searching for a job. She even tried to arrange my kitchen cabinets, like she was going to start cooking again. Plus we have one of those shotgun kitchens and with my petite frame (6'0"/255lbs) it gets crowded with two trying to work in there. We worked it out. Thankfully we have two offices in the house, two tv's and some space so we can do our own thing. I must say I get up every morning now and watch her go off to work so I can get my day's work done. It is amazing how you get into a pattern of doing things your own way and then someone comes along with a "better" way cause they are trying to "help" you. We have been together 17 years and it is great, but I don't know how it is going to be in another 10 when she retires on a full time basis. Should have her shooting competitively by then and so that should give us something to fill in the "dull" moments. Enjoy your time together and appreciate you time apart. Jim [/QUOTE]
