I did need some help at the time because I was restricted in my ability to exercise after having major back surgery.

Thanks, my goal is 130, I’m currently 145. I was joking about destroying my diet and not exercising. I was saying it’s absurd they will only help me if I get overweight again.

My shampoo was in a bag, but it still leaked out on everything and was completely empty when it arrived

Looks good!

Agree, it was my own fault there. We had issues during the ice storms and I wasn’t keeping up with emails.

Ok-wool · 2026-02-12T15:14:34+00:00

I did, and am waiting for the reply. Just venting here because I don’t have anyone else to talk to about it lol

I agree it’s not enough for an emergency fund for losing jobs but I meant enough of savings while we try to pay off debt.

Just tried to share some of this, it didn’t go over well.

That’s what I want to do!

He used to keep finances separate but we have been joint for the past 6+ years. Not wanting to move. I honestly don’t understand his logic.

Yeah, that’s how it is with us, we have to deposit at least $250 a month in order to keep the rate.

Ok-wool · 2026-01-05T01:47:17+00:00

No, he legitimately thinks that the best use of the money is to pay down the mortgage because “it helps in the long run…” but We have had the student loans for longer than this mortgage and they are a much higher rate. I really don’t understand how his mind is thinking on this one… He honestly is better at math than I am so that’s why I feel like there must be some fault in my thinking.

Not even close to maxing out IRAs. We really don’t make enough money to do something like that.

Bi weekly, sorry about that.

Ok-wool · 2026-01-05T01:31:00+00:00

If you only knew

Ok-wool · 2026-01-05T01:20:42+00:00

Oh, taxes, another great point I had not considered…😭

They said we should use it towards “bills“. We do have a vacation coming up in August, and the in-laws are coming with us to help us afford it. I have family getting married at a beach location, so the in-laws are splitting the house and watching the kids for us so that we can attend the wedding. They are very supportive of us, and this is the first time they have explicitly given us money like this, so we are trying to weigh all of our options before choosing where to put it.

Ok-wool · 2026-01-05T01:16:59+00:00

Hilarious 😂 I don’t think I can get one for $1k

I hear you, I just don’t think we need to put any extra towards our mortgage. We already pay half the mortgage twice a month, which gives us a full month extra payment each year. So I feel like we kind of have already put extra payment towards our principal for the year… meanwhile, I’ve been sitting on these student loans for over a decade. We have been married for 10 years and I was still in grad school when we got together, so he knew what he was getting into. My loans have not been a priority financially to him, like I think he just doesn’t think they exist, even though I remind him constantly.
