It's also inspiring that the issues you've been dealing with have brought you closer. The Constanza reference makes me laugh!

I love this post as it really expressed the vast change you have experienced together and how all of this has affected your relationship. Remember, it really does come down to communication and checking in with yourself about your 'expectations' and 'boundaries' even if you didn't know you had them until they were bumped up against. Then the art comes with how you communicate your needs, wants, expectations, and bounaries so the other person can hear, respond, and hopefully take action or open up a dialogue that serves you both well. Hugs to you both! First off – Congratulations on getting your blog up and running – while I’m still working on mine.
