Mercury, I know you probably didn't mean that to be funny, but it struck me as hilarious. :)

Our marriage survived His MLC, with the help of the Lord.
I have learned that true strength is built through the trials we endure.
There is hope as long as you love your MLC spouse, and, are willing to learn the  life's lessons that are set before you as a result of this crisis.

In LNA's thread, I suggested that she could do some things to increase the amount of confusion that her H is experiencing, in an effort to speed him through the tunnel. It was meant in jest, but I thought it could be a good way to relieve some stress by brainstorming more suggestions. Try to keep it light and fun; no fixiating on OPs, suggesting bodily harm, etc.

Here is my original list:

  • Repainting the living room in the middle of the night
  • Taping the kids to the ceiling
  • Flipping the hinges on the doors so they open outward instead of inward (or vice versa)
  • Moving all of the furniture in the bedroom to "rotate" the room 90 degrees

And a few more:
  • If the MLCer calls you, answer the phone like you are placing a take-out order. ("Hi, I'd like a large pepperoni pizza with black olives. Can I get breadsticks?
  • Plant a lawn flamingo in the front yard; every night, move it a little closer to the front door

JA,

If you have a talker, they will then start to bring up all the topics they don't want you to know about, to see what one you seem to know about! Just smile every time a new topic comes up, and around we go again!

Boy this made me smile.

My old H was never a talker. Maybe the new one will be! I'll try it anyway.  8)
