Thanks.
I shall see what he says later on.
I'm just so fed up that nearly 9 years together, 3 children that he has 'his' money and I have my pittance.
His mum owes him a lot of money too which £9,000 is on his credit cards so he's paying her debts each month yet there is nothing for me and the kids. She also still owes him his inheritance from his father's estate which she was meant to pay this December but he won't be getting that this year either.Sealed Pot Challenge #0160 -

TMD - My god hun thats just.....plain wrong in my mind... sorry to sound harsh but you're doing everything to earn that extra 2k... whats hes doing with his spare money after the bills etc are paid....Wealth is not measured by currency0

It sounds incredibly frustrating TMD. Has he always been like that about his money? It sounds like his Mum is not too good with money so has that made him obsessive with his? Hope you manage to have a productive chat with him.
Great news about the house sale Doodledo :j
Hope interview went well SH - how awful they got rid of you because you were honest about the interview.

Morning doodledo!
I'm suffering from hayfever!It's been pretty good since living in a city, but last night suddenly my nose started itching like hell. Something must be really high.
Any news about the new house?DEBT FREE OCTOBER 2012!Proud to have dealt with my debts!0 -
Hi Doodledo - how are you today?
I am OK today, had a 'discussion' with OH yesterday and said that the car had to go but he doesn't want me to get rid of it, he was saying that when the tax is due at the end of July 'we' will just get 6 months tax so I'm taking that to mean that he will pay for it as I said to him OK I'll keep the car but when the tax runs out I'll get a SORN and leave it sitting on the front drive.
I also said to him that he should be telling his mum that we need the money soon, he says she doesn't have it but he never had it when he loaned it to her on his credit card so I think it is only fair that she transfers the money from her credit card to his bank account but he says he doesn't want to put her under anymore stresss - thanks never mind that I'm stressed all the time.
Anyway, DD1 and DD2 are now covered in pox on their backs, chests and faces and behind their ears, DD2 has them on her eye lid and it looks like she has a fluid filled spot on the ledge of her eye so am keeping an eye on it and if it gets worse will ring the doctors.
We also have mice in the garden, saw them this morning down by the shed and Annex, I think there are 2 or 4 not sure so OH will have to go down their later and put traps down, such a pain, we got rid of the rats and now have mice.
Just played B Bingo as it's only 1p a card, didn't win though, what a waste of time, I've never won on that, I don't play very often but do every now and then and just can't even win a fiver, some person on chat just said that they added £440 to their account and withdrew £1,700, blimey how much must people spend on there to win so many times, I'm just not a lucky person.
Oh well, am in for a fun day with a 3 and 5 year old moaning and whinging all day that they are itching, at least we are getting it out the way now so I'm glad about that.
Bye for now.Sealed Pot Challenge #0160 -
Hey TMD, must be a nightmare with two kids having the pox, but at least they'll get over it and then hopefully, never again.DEBT FREE OCTOBER 2012!Proud to have dealt with my debts!0

Tirl - hope the hayfever hasn't been too bad for you today. I have got the house
offer made and accepted today so just a waiting game now. Hopefully in a few weeks I will be moving in
TMD - 2 little uns with Pox, I feel for you. Although usually once they have the spots they aren't so poorly so hope they aren't too bad.
Well done for chatting to OH, seems crazy to put the car on a SORN, I am with you if you don't need it you may as well get shot.
Could his mum maybe pay you back a little a month. I mean if you are struggling and she owes you all that cash it's the least she could do.Proud to be dealing with my debts - DFW No: 712
