Reconnecting

I was really starting to get concerned about my marriage. I felt like we totally lost touch with each other and the relationship was just so stressful. Things have completely turned around these past couple weeks. Hugh's not been drinking at all and that has allowed me to let my guard down and not be edgy and defensive all the time. I also decided to start putting Sarah in her crib at night and it was the best decision that I could have made. The past few nights have been great. I feel like we're getting to know each other all over again. I realized that I was just all touched out by the end of the day from not being able to put her down and having her sleep in the bed never allowed me to get time away from her. And that is somethng that I desperately need.

Also, we are finally getting a handle on all of his health problems. He's seen an ENT, has a sleep study scheduled at the hospital, and is on blood pressure and reflux meds now. He's been watching what he eats and I can already see that he's lost a bunch of weight. I've been dieting right along with him and have never felt better. Maybe it's the change in the weather. I don't know but I feel so much better. No more headaches or fatigue. It's such a relief that things are finally looking up for a change.
