For the Guy with Kids and a WW Neunzehn(19)

Definate "HIGH FIVE" for that!!! It's interesting that she couldn't use the truck!!! I wouldn't go dark yet either....keep your eyes open.

I was going to ask for some thoughts on this. Should I keep trying to be around or go back to trying to stay away?

We talked a little about her finances yesterday morning. She had asked me if I was going to keep the kids on my insurance. I told her of course. I told her that SHE should cancel the kids on hers. She told me that she was thinking about it, because her job is currently in benefits enrollment. That it would free up some money for her. She asked about my family plan, that if it would be cheaper to cancel her from mine. I told her that I didn't know.

I DO know. It WOULD be cheaper to take her off. But I won't. I told her, when she started working, that she shouldn't have added the kids. That meant the we are both paying premiums for them. No sense. She said that she was advised to do it. To show responsibility in case of D. At the time, I think I told her that it must have been someone that didn't know crap. I assumed it was OM.

She also told me that if I was going to keep the insurance, she could pay all the daycare for Juliana. I told her that I would not agree to that. I will pay my share.

On Monday, up in the hotel room, us checking if we gathered everything, I gave her a check to help pay for the room cost. She declined at first, but I insisted. Yesterday morning, as I was out the door, she asked if she could cash the check. I told her yes. I asked when she gets paid again. She said that she wasn't even sure. She thinks next week. I ask about daycare payment next Monday. I told her that if needed, since I get paid this Friday, I can pay it for her. She quickly said that she would pay me back. I told her to let me know. She then said that it takes them a few days to process the check anyway. She gets paid on Wednesdays. The check may not hit her account until Thursday anyway. I tell her that she shouldn't chance it. I don't mind, just to let me know.

An interesting conversation, I thought.
