I know that feeling with the $. Here I am worried sick about taxes due on 2 houses, and trying to buy a car, and at the book store I buy both of us a pile of book. And we could each read for a year - her maybe 5 years - just from what we've already got stockpiled, never mind the library! I worried she'd just put them on the CC, and somehow most of the big expenses keep coming back to me. How far we've come since the days of "we need to separate our finances." I noticed a while back she never says "your house" or "my house" or "my car" or "my credit card" anymore. It's always "this house" and "the other place" etc. But, I'm over here talking about myself again.... oops.
About that Bucket woman! LOL. I love when the neighbor would avoid her because "she'll sing at me!"
I looked up the Bucket woman on youtube, and it was quite funny! I will have to look up Jasper Carrott as well. I love comedies... Tonight I am going to watch "The Heat" with Sandra Bullock and Melissa McCarthy, I heard it was hilarious!
I like to show my kids funny skits on youtube as well. A few weeks ago I showed them the "Who's on First?" skit with Abott and Costello. The kids were laughing so hard. Then we went for a walk around the block and the whole time they were doing their own "Who's on First" skit and laughing their heads off the entire time!
M: 8 yrs T:14 Twins:7 S:5 BD:'NLILWY': Feb/2013 Mar/Apr/May: MC June: "living in limbo" Sept 12: H moves out Oct 20: reconciling Jan-Feb 2014:MC Feb 2014: separating, and H moved out.
Just got home from cadets with S13. Had to stop in at the local pub to let H see S13 in his uniform and show him off to some of the people we both know in there - and since I was meeting up with him to drop off his latest mail delivery.
H is having his own personal pity party tonight. He just found out today the results of MIL's bloodwork - been waiting for weeks to find out what's wrong with her - turns out she's got stage one leukemia. H is stressed now. Add to that the fact that today would have been our first son's 16th birthday.
I'd been trying not to make too much of the date but obviously H didn't succeed. He's sitting at the bar toasting our late son with shots of Jack washed down with beer. Boy, is he gonna feel it tomorrow. I did allow him to buy me one drink, then made the excuse that I had to get S13 home to bed as he's got school tomorrow and left him to it.

I agree with Jonf I dunno what I'd have done in that sitch, knowing me I'd probably have made sure he got home ok. I'm too soft for my own good, lol. You did well NQ

I had deliberately arranged to see H on my way home from cadets - S13's bedtime is an excuse to leave that he couldn't argue with. He seems to have a harder time dealing with the significant dates such as our late son's birthday or the anniversary of his passing than I do. Every year, at least twice a year at that, he'll go out and spend a lot of time with Jack - and he keeps telling me that it's time we let it go. And as Jon F said I got a free drink out of it, and S13 got two free ginger ales .
H called early this morning to say no ill effects from last night. He also let it slip that he'd been picked up from the bar by "a friend" (translation OW)and that he'd stayed over at their place and the thought of that didn't bother me in the slightest. And I know it was OW because if it wasn't he would have said the friend's name instead of just "a friend".
