As part of my 180 I have begun to assume control of more of the family money. I told my w that I would take care of the tax filing this year. She has handled it in the past, but I nicely told her that I can handle it and I need to be more involved in these matters. She was surprised and a bit irritated, probably because she thought I didn't trust her with the tax refund money, and partly because she had already decided how to spend it. In the past my w has made financial decisio ns without consulting me, but that's over now.
