Though he was such a perfect publican, he is at heart rather shy, now, & would only go if I went with him, I suspect. <BR/>I think on the whole, I have been the one to make most adjustments throughout our marriage, which is not necessarily a bad thing. Now I have to tell myself no one will lose a limb or life if I cant find a tin of pineapple in the pantry, because of his obsessive rearranging! Leo has become his shadow, & whereever Gom is, he will be there. Gom even stays home, so Leo wont miss him!meggiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00061112627819270427noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33880433.post-55460128791631181952007-10-08T01:18:00.000+10:002007-10-08T01:18:00.000+10:00GOM needs to find something else to 'manage.'
