Thank you :group hug:

I didn't get any answers and that big payment worries me. My policy is due to renew in September and I have no idea what the payments will be then. I cringe at the thought. I'll cross that bridge when I come to it I guess. I'm just happy I found a workable solution for the present. My husband was pleased.

He drank very little last week because he was on call, but he had several beers Saturday night. He hasn't drank since. That's very unusual for him. I told him I was happy and he was doing well. He didn't give me any feedback, so I'm unaware of any goals he may have set for himself, and I'm not going to pry. He was in a good mood yesterday. It was nice for a change. He said he's feeling better, and he seems less anxious. It's possible his withdrawals are over.

We're going through a heatwave. I shouldn't be spending any money, but I don't have any shorts that fit, and am going to have to go out and buy a pair. I'm sure Kohl's is having a sale. It's upsetting to realize that last year at this time I was shopping for size 4's, and this year I'm shopping for size 12's.
