Sara, my question wasn't "Should we talk?" The question was, "Am I right to feel entitled to this, with our accounts having been split?"

Regarding the accounts, the ship has sailed. The new account has been opened, and the Jan 15 paycheck will go there. Bonus day is either Jan 31 or Feb 15. So the new account is open. I am just not sure how to approach the issue of the bonus money.

I do intend to tell her that it will be her responsibility to ensure that the money is in my account on the 15th and 31st each month, before 9:00AM. I pay all of our bills electronically, and the money is "pulled" in the morning.
