[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Will he mind more that you are gone for 7 days or that you are going alone?

I think DH is an a$$hat if he doesn't want you to go because he doesn't want to solo parent for 7 days.

If he has an objection that you are going alone, tell him it's a girls weekend. Then right before the trip say the friend(s) cancelled last minute but you are still going.

As for your poor mentality...the purpose of working hard and saving money is to make your life easier and more enjoyable. There won't be some magical day that your poor inner child will finally feel like she has enough money. She will always feel like she is one disaster away from living on the street. So you need to console her and let her know it's safe, you have plenty of money that this splurge will not take you back to the poor house.  [/quote]

OP here: i did the math. he did one last year too and the two together will equal less than this one but not by much. So maybe he won't object. As for my poor mentality, I keep expecting my inner child to grow the hell up. Intellectually I know that I won't be on the street and I've known that for well over a decade. Some things are hard to shake and I won't even miss the money. We won't even miss it. We only know our NW at tax time. It's always a bit of a surprise really. retirement grows fast![/quote]
