Thanks OD,

Yeah I'm so torn...

I see exactly what you're saying, and this makes sense. There are a few things that I actually DO want to highlight in the email though. I do want him to know that it wasn't my oversight that got us into this predicament...

What do you think if the email is shorter:

"I've attached the budget. We have a shortfall this month because we didn't have money left over from the previous pay period like anticipated. I've made some cuts on my side (personal trainer/gym).

Can you let me know what you think and if you have any other suggestions?

Also on another note noticed your mom's $X check wasn't cashed this month. Are you still sending these and given her new commute do you think this is still the right amount? What amount do you think would be best?"

I really want to keep SOME reference to his mom in the email unless it seems too left field...

Thoughts on this?

ITH
