[quote=Anonymous]How is it decided if/when updates or renovations are made to the house? This can be anything from paint, to a new substantial piece of furniture, or something big like a kitchen or bathroom. Don't count minor things like new bedding or new throw pillows. Does one spouse make all the decisions? Is it a collaborative decision? Does x amount go into a seperate account for this per month/year? Long story short, I am getting a lot of pushback from spouse on what I think are modest improvements to our 25 year old home (not kitchens or bathrooms, like wood floor and a built in in the family room. Granite for existing kitchen.) Would be paid for with cash, and not in any way take away from retirement or college funds. We have no debt at all aside from our 15-year mortgage. Spouse has basically drawn a line in the sand and said no, end of discussion. Is this normal?[/quote]
