W just called. Not sure why I answered it... didn't I just post on someone else's thread about not answering right away? Jeez...

She wanted to discuss the budget I sent her. She doesn't like how it looks. Not enough money to live on and she's frustrated. It's pretty lean I'll admit... too bad. And I had inputted a figure she would get from her first XH in child support. She thinks it will be less than what I projected. That makes lean even leaner.

Tried to just listen and not fix. Not much really to fix. There's not enough money to go around and that's really too bad for her. And she made it clear she'd like to end this sooner than June, but the numbers get worse doing that. Too bad again.

We didn't argue and ended the call peacefully enough, but I could tell she's upset. Good. Next time I need to not answer. Completely put a raincloud on my day though.
