MW1 that sounds so nice - it sounds like you have a great community of people that you and your husband enjoy. That is a very good thing!
Most of the time my husband and I do not live together. I don't know why it seems to work better that way. maybe because we both work at home and don't socialize much? I guess we get tired of seeing each other around all the time? All I know is that we like each other more this way.
I am glad to hear of your aunt and uncle - hearing that it works for other people is comforting to me.
