No argument from me (not to reinforce my MNG image) as I think you are correct. W has continued to whine about her stress from having to go back to work, but yet her tastes and our lifestyle demand it. I told her I want to meet tonight to go through our finances top to bottom so she has the full understanding. While she generally knows them, she (based on feedback from MIL) thinks that if we just drop the HBO, for example, that we can do this. I will use this as an opportunity to be fair but firm.
Any other suggestions? What about with the ml-break going for at least two more weeks, how to keep her thinking about it? It really eats away at me that I think aside from being sore, this is an ideal setup for her and she doesn't miss it at all. I see a lot of Mrs. Cinco in my W in this regard.
