You know, AFTER the weekend is over you could start a ledger. He complained you weren't managing money well so just start keeping track of EVERYTHING in an accounting ledger... yours AND HIS expenditures...

You can ask him to account for every dime all in the guise of wanting to manage household monies better

He can't complain since he's the one that WAS complaining in the first place...

He may give you the "well, I just meant you keep track of your money, i know what I buy"...

You can always reply back

"but I know what I buy, and you don't seem to be concerned about keeping ME informed.. where's YOUR ledger?"





Good idea about the ledger. It will go along with my new budget worksheet! Of course, this is assuming we're still together after the weekend. :-/

I guess it isn't all that unusual for him to pull out $100 if he has to have cash. He just doesn't usually need cash.
