Come to think of it, I did change for the better as a result of DH's depression. Because he withdrew into himself so much, I had no choice but to become more independent. I've learned to take more chances, and to try new things on my own. And, I don't feel like I need his approval anymore. If I like it, if it's good enough for me, if it makes me happy, then so be it.
One day he was at the football game, and I wanted to start a fire in the fireplace. Problem was, the latest load of wood we had delivered was really green, and didn't catch fire well. He had been bringing home some old pallettes (sp?) from work, and which are very dry and help the green wood catch fire. So this particular day I wanted to use some pallette wood to start a fire, but none of it was cut up. So I grabbed his circular saw and cut it all up, and proceeded to start a fire, adding the dry wood to the green wood. When he came home from the game, he saw that I had a fire going, and that the pallettes were all cut up into smaller pieces of wood. He said, "Did you cut all that up?" I told him yes. "With the circular saw?" I told him yes. He smiled and said "hmmm."
Okay so which power tool can I learn how to use next? lol.
