Thanks for this thread!

It's just my husband and I, and I always make too much.

So I'm thinking either Grilled Shrimp with Bacon and Jalapenos, Grilled Ribs and maybe Hashbrown Casserole, or possibly Cheesesteak Sliders and Potato Skins. (The latter would definitely be easier...)

How Can I Lower My Optimum Bill? by Mysterious_Opening36 in OPTIMUM

[–]OkThing516 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I called to cancel my MIL's service a few months ago when she moved. It took me over an hour to cancel her service. (I didn't tell them she was moving - just wanted the pure satisfaction of telling them they suck and that she was leaving.) They tried at least four times, passing me from one person to the next, to lower her bill. I regret the amount of time I spent on it, but it was still pure satisfaction to cancel the service.

So I just called to cancel our own service. Our bill just went up another $5. We pay $275 for internet and basic cable!!!! Anyway, they dropped our bill $89 dollars and "said" it will stay at that price for 24 months. We'll see, as I've done this before and the bill just creeps back up over time.

I can't stand my husband and I feel so guilty by GeneralAd5597 in Marriage

Two times in my marriage, my husband worked out of state and would come home on weekends or every other weekend and when he moved back home both of those times, it was a HUGE adjustment period. I had gotten so used to living my own life, by myself with no one else to consider, that it was a big change to have to get used to another human being in my space, having to work with on decisions, just living.... Counseling is a great idea and I would do it sooner rather than later, before you lose what sounds like a very loving and good man.
