[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, why you cannot do it without husband? It took me 4 years to completely gut and re-do all 4 bathrooms in our house. I just finished my master bathroom and I totally love it. Husband refused to get involved. I am looking at the kitchen now. I gave a an inexpensive face lift 4 years ago, I will start pricing a full remodel next year and planning to gut it out in 2-3 years. Just do it if this is important for you.[/quote]

In our marriage, we don’t spend five or six figures without the other person’s consent. [/quote]

Np. Yep. Especially when the rest of the marriage is good.

My Dh had to pay his own way through college working and then also had $$$ student loans. He thinks it builds character and doesn’t want to pay anything towards our kids. I straight up told him I’m putting 8k in a year per kid and he can shove it. I work. If he has any issues with this, I can quit work entirely and see how he misses my paycheck. So far so good! We have a lovely marriage and our kids college is somewhat funded.

Sometimes you know you’re right and you just have to do it. Your spouse won’t admit they’re wrong but also knows deep down that you’re right and they won’t stop it. [/quote]
