Everything is here is just ours. My husbands sister has a ridiculous set up with her husband she has to actually ask him to BORROW money and PAY IT BACK at a set time...
Never in a million years......LOL

Oh it gets better Aidensmom! about 2 years ago... her gas got shut off as she had forgotten to pay the bill. She called him at work and told him and he refused to pay it!!! she ended up going over to my inlaws CRYING and her mom gave her the money.. the only way I know about this was that my oldest child was over at the inlaws at the time and filled me in. His argument was that he pays the mortgage all the other bills are hers.. ? I really just don't know.. I think part of the issue is that she allows herself to be treated in this manner. Lots of problems over there! LOL

Both my husband and i have seperate accounts. I pay for groceries and other daily household needs...he pays for everything else. I would love to be totally in charge of our finance, but not possible since he makes more and all the bills come out of his account.
My husband and i are total opposites...he loves to spend and i love to save. But i guess over the years we have both rubbed off a bit on each other when it comes ot spending habbits.

We share a bank account. His pay is direct deposit ;D I then pay all the bills online. He has no idea what we have in the bank or when the bills are paid. I always tease him that he will be lost when I am gone.

That's so silly.... but the thing is that she allows this, so it's her own fault.
