I offered that I might be able to use them for some of my dried things if I washed them - he said sort of curtly that we could buy containers.

Luckily I didn't push the matter - for some reason it was very important to him. May never know what it was, but certainly no need for me to make a frugal fuss over it or go behind his back.

thus said, I feel good about myself and my reaction. Mahalo to you and this thred for raising my consciousness on making my marriage better - I know I will be back more to participate.

Such a great reaction. Little things are sooo not worth fighting over.

Haven't been here for quite sometime. Been very under the weather and not feeling much like improving my marriage. I know, I know. Anyway, I'm making a effort to be attentive to his needs, paying attention when he's sharing something that he finds fascinating while I find it boring and somedays that's a strain. I don't know what my problem is but I hope I snap out of it soon.
