Don't give up

                                                                 Thank you everyone for all your fabulous advice. I will be doing some of it on my week off. I feel blessed so many of you care about a stranger.Two people featured heavily in my thoughts yesterday. One was a wonderful woman who emailed after reading my post. What stuck in my mind most was she reminded me to love myself, stand up for myself and not to let him belittle me. As she reminded me the house is as much mine as his and what was I doing throwing in the towel and not even considering putting up a fight for it. The other person was the wonderful db. Who managed to invigorate my soul. We had a wonderful phone call and I realized what a special friend he is and how paramount our relationship is in my life. Doomsayer came home last night and gave me a box of chocolates. I'm presuming it's some form of apology since I can't remember him buying me even a birthday card in years. I just said thank you and ate the chocolates. It doesn't change anything since I know this will be a short lived truce and tomorrow he could be back to being the vexatious oppressor.
