My husband is up at our cabin and I'm here with the dogs. In a long marriage, most people need a bit of separation. We're lucky, we have the cabin to get away from each other, reflect and regroup. Lately, he's been the one to go up, but in the past, I've spent a month up there by myself. I'm always tempted, but this week I have appointments and things to do. He will be back in a couple of days, but in the meantime, we get a break, and come back together appreciating each other more. I really like being alone, my husband doesn't. I find plenty to do, he tends to brood. It's tricky, this marriage business, and requires a lot of adjustments, constantly. It's a dance, and sometimes we're dancing alone, and sometimes together. I like dancing all by myself, or with a bunch of girlfriends. He will only dance with me. That's fine, as long as we respect each other.
