LOL on the cheese in the back seat thing:):) He would have a heart attack! Hey last year he bought me gloves and he got a 19-inch flat screen computer monitor and lots of other things. Lets see who won on that deal. Yes, he is Jewish but I'm not. We've always celebrated Christmas but my kids aren't here this year and we've spent a lot of money lately. Oh or should I say, he has. He kills me! He wants this new car and I'm like OK! I have no problem with that, he was suppose to sell one of his other ones. Now he's penny pinching and worrying about everything that I spend. I ordered a coat last week and it came in yesterday. He saw the box and said, "What's that"? I said it's the coat I told you about but it's too big so I think I'll send it back for a smaller size. He says to me you don't need another coat why don't you send it back and get a refund. I'm thinking to myself, Can you drive all four cars and the motorcycle at the same time? I think NOT!!!!! Ok, I’m on a tangent now! Grrrrrrrrrrr...... NMR

okay, then, gc, take that credit card, go to a zen seminar, buy all the crystals, special portions, etc., wrap 'em up, bring them home, pile them up and tell H "look how many wonderful healing gifts YOU bought me, merry christmas honey!!" and then laugh as you walk away......

Wow, that's funny. I get annoyed with my DH sometimes for that too, but we don't have a lot of money. He just spends, spends, spends and then I feel like I should avoid buying "extras" for myself. Then I get a little resentful, but I know if I would just tell him "no" once in a while I could buy something for myself, so it's my fault for not saying "no". But to begrudge you clothing?! That's crazy. I can't believe he actually tells you what you do and don't need.

Once again, you folks have made me grateful for what I have, and that's a nice Christmas present, so thank you!

Gurl, please don't remind me that I married the Man! I try to forget as often as possible:) As far as me taking the CC's and going shopping I learned my lesson long time ago. We keep our money separate; we tried the joint account thing. BAD IDEA, on my part! He will go out after work to really nice places with his buddies but if I should say lets go to a nice dinner the response is always "You Buying"? Ok, I’m going to get off my rampage now, I’m certain you are all sick of hearing it! NMR

LOL! I did put an ad out on one of the cars. Just to my address list to all our friends. I ask him when he was going to take it out of the garage and put a for sale sign on it. He said soon..... Yeah Right! I told him to drive it to the beach and sit it there that car will be gobbled up with a day! OK, I'm done! NMR

I'd love to, but I pay the bills, so...

(I'm not adverse to new-agey stuff either, but having studied it somewhat, I'd have to say I'm not so much a pagan as a heathen, and a hedonist to boot!)

Couldn't do it. I'll be happy with whatever DH does give me, I know that.

Hey, I'm going to a farmer's market this weekend-- maybe I *should* indulge myself while I'm there and make sure I tell DH that I bought XYZ so he has to hold off for a little while on buying any more crap!

I'm not a hippie, I swear it! If you saw me and knew me you would laugh at how strong the contradiction is...

It's OK; I'll forgive you this time:) I agree, you don't want to be swapping snot with each other it's best if you wait to see each other next week! Awwwww, a weekend away sounds wonderful! I'm certain you will utilize each precious moment:) Oh, remember the story from Monday about what MM and I did. He dared me for a repeat performance tonight at the party. I told him " you have big balls but I know there not that Big! His W and my H will be there with us this time! He's getting a little dangerous:):) NMR
