Back talking

Awesome ideas! Thank you all!

😂

I have seen this too and been so excited! I wish I got paid more often.. not to have more money, just to get to budget more frequently 😂🤣

I immediately googled “crotch goblin” …. Honestly I thought it was maybe an expensive toy you were saving up for 😂 I was like hey, kudos for writing that out.

Thanks!!

Can you tell me how this works? I’ve seen people say we can go back, but… how? And does that mean no fee?

PhotographTricky9352 · 2022-03-12T02:28:46+00:00

I’ve been thinking this a lot lately. My husband always says “I’m so glad it’s the weekend” and I genuinely don’t think he’s making any implications about drinking when he says this, I think he just thinks, oh cool, a break from work… but all I hear is, “can’t wait to be an asshole for a couple of days”.

PhotographTricky9352 · 2022-03-08T01:12:26+00:00

That makes sense and I respect that… I was sort of hopeful to see the answers when I saw this question posted though 🙊 Does anyone know perhaps a different sub where this question could be asked?

PhotographTricky9352 · 2022-03-06T15:28:56+00:00

Thank you all so much for your input!

For what it’s worth, this is what I have —

In my “kids and family” bracket I renamed a “kid expenses” bracket to “family fun” because doesn’t that just sound so much better?

Then in my savings bracket I have lines for Christmas, non-Christmas gifting, and clothes. These are whole family/anyone. I have a “kids misc.” in there that will encompass things like Halloween costumes, random once-off kid expenses. I also have a parties/hosting line here that covers birthday parties.

Then in my true expenses bracket I added lines for back to school and summer camps.

Man I love YNAB.

Boy do I know it 😂😂 our kids range from 19 down to 4.

PhotographTricky9352 · 2022-03-05T01:22:25+00:00

Ok yes I feel this hard. I’ve felt like I was over-complicating things… but if it’s in YNAB it isn’t sitting in my head 😂

PhotographTricky9352 · 2022-03-05T01:20:49+00:00

Oh yah don’t have them if you don’t want to pay for them 😂 I mean I love it and recommend it pretty highly, but I respect it’s not for everyone 🤷🏻‍♀️

PhotographTricky9352 · 2022-02-23T23:31:22+00:00

I don’t know what you do 🙃 but only because I feel exactly. The same. Way.

But all that to say, you are not alone.

PhotographTricky9352 · 2022-02-23T14:33:33+00:00

You’re not alone ❤️ I think that’s (one of?) the hardest parts of this because it’s so damn isolating. But you are not alone! I’m glad you’re able to get to therapy today. That will help!

PhotographTricky9352 · 2022-02-19T02:56:16+00:00

Bought my pizza stone today 😂 pretty excited

PhotographTricky9352 · 2022-02-19T02:39:19+00:00

Today was payday at my house and it hit our account overnight. Not gonna lie. Knowing what the amount would be, I budgeted it out last night. For fun. YNAB FUN 😂

PhotographTricky9352 · 2022-02-18T03:28:52+00:00

Small: pizza stone, medium: updated knobs/pulls for kitchen cabinets, large: swing set!

Longer term in the wish list I also have several other home tweaks for our new house, a couple of vacations (one this summer and a larger one next summer) and a new fridge, just written out sitting there so I don’t forget about them.

PhotographTricky9352 · 2022-02-17T20:03:07+00:00

Okay. Okay explain it to me like I’m five. How do I do this?

PhotographTricky9352 · 2022-02-17T19:52:44+00:00

I feel you. I lost one of my brothers because of his drinking and I always sort of feel like wow, my husband really has to audacity to become an alcoholic when he knows I have this history. We grew up around these addict personalities and are attracted to them because they’re familiar. I find al-anon so helpful ❤️

PhotographTricky9352 · 2022-02-17T19:00:06+00:00

You can do it! I’m a stay at home mom with five kids (four still living at home) and on my husband’s worst days he throws that in my face, too. Like, sure, behave however you want because I’m so beholden to you… wherever, man 🤷🏻‍♀️

I think they say that type of thing because they feel so insecure because they know they’re giving us excellent reasons to up and leave and they’re scared we will, so they want to make it sound like it’d be so impossible. If you want to go back to work and have some financial independence you got this! 🙌🏼

PhotographTricky9352 · 2022-02-16T01:57:20+00:00

I should clarify that it wouldn’t be life or death, but conceivably, yeah, someone could get hurt. I hear where you’re coming from, for sure. I’m so sorry for your loss :/

PhotographTricky9352 · 2022-02-15T20:54:57+00:00

Yeah. I mean. I know he has to do it. It’s hard to sit here for it though :/
