    Default DH took over the checkbook

    Not because I was messing it up or anything...I was just sort of tired, kwim? So it's a huge relief that he's doing it. And I have to admit, it's fun to watch.

    It's nice to be a team in meeting our financial goals and in life in general.

    I'm glad you are finding something that works for both of you! It seems like it's so much easier when we're on the same financial page.

    I agree!

    I sometimes wish my DH would take over the checkbook, but then again he has dones that before and it wasn't good.

    You know, DH was always more of a spender and had CC debt when we got married - but I always let him handle the joint checkbook. He has always done very well - I think it inspired him to get his own stuff together :-)
