Ah LNL...I tried this. H said it wasn't necessary He tells me "if you want something just get it". When I tell him that I can't because HIS purchase (s) have exhausted the personal budget and then some he clams up on me and won't discuss it anymore.

I asked him to take over the money handling a couple of months ago I explained to him that it was becoming too stressful for me and more often then not drove me to tears. It was one of the few times I think I have seen real fear flash in his eyes He told me that he preferred me to take care of it, that I did an EXCELLENT job and he would just mess everything all up if he tried, he was lousy when it came to that kind of stuff etc (this was evidenced last year during one of the times I left...the bills came due and he ignored them figuring I could take care of it when I came back, nevermind that I left clear instructions of what was due when and balanced the account out before I left). I just looked at him then turned around and walked away.

I fear this is definitely a no-win sitch for me.
