DejaVu and FS......Thanks for the feedback. I value the input! I'm not sure why I was annoyed. Maybe deep down I was hoping to see him this week? Not really sure. We are still paying all the bills out of our shared account which both paychecks go into. We have budgeted the same amount for each of us for monthly personal expenses like going out, food, gas, shopping, etc. It's been working so far, but we are only in month 2. So, I guess in that regard it's as much as his house and mine.
I guess I should be appreciative that he still is keeping up with the lawn work once a week. One less thing I have to worry about. I don't think a thank you would be too much against the "rules". In my book, you can never go wrong with being polite. So, that's what I think I'll do.
Got GAL plans tonight (happy hour with a girlfriend), and tomorrow I will spend the whole day with D19 She can't come home from college this weekend, and misses her mommy. I'm really looking forward to spending the day with her!
