[quote=Anonymous]Well, I recently had a huge remodeling project done in my house - new floors, new bathrooms, paint, change in fixtures. new doors and windows, structural changes, carpeting, build-ins, electrical changes etc. It started off as a small project but once I realized that the amount of headache and inconvenience you undertake when you get ANY remodeling done in the house, I decided to have everything done at once. The thing that my DH made clear to me was that he would not help in anything at all - no decision making, no design aspects, no trips to home depot, no looking at websites + He did not want to be inconvenienced - he did not want to move to a hotel, he needed at least one bathroom working at all time, he did not want to empty out the rooms, he did not want to breathe in any dust.... Long story short - he left everything on me, which is in some ways easier. I did not ask his permission for the money because I am smarter about how I use money than he is. I just asked him to transfer money in our checking account. I don't feel I am answerable to anyone about how I spend money. If I had to take permission from him to spend our money, I would have not quit my job to stay at home. I probably would not have remained married to him either. [/quote]
