in house seperation (3)

hey,

Yester day I money issues. I checked my balance and I was 85$ short of the check I wrote for my share of the bills. So I am finding out that money is very tight with all the bills. I had to borrow money from my kids fund to prevent a check from bouncing. I didn't tell the W. I told her that I had to move money some money around because I have none in my account. She was understanding and said she will deposit money from her account into the joint account. I didn't argue about the situation because she will be in the same boat as we get paid on opposite weeks. But I am going to have to ask her/us to cut back on something. So I think we can do better with the electric bills. I mentioned Selling the car before to save money. I think I will wait till she comes to me with money problems before I say anything.


It was a good interaction with normal talking, and even a solution to the problem(her depositing more money).

It was hard to not say something because she just got her hair colored and cut for $100. but its her money so I kept my mouth shut. I didn't give her a compliment on how good her hair looked. I said oh you got It shorter, but just short of a compliment. I wanted to but the words just couldn't come out of my mouth. I feel like I missed an opportunity. Just out of practice. This is more of the same from me in the MR. Just worried I will look needy.
