Since taking Dave Ramsey’s Financial Peace University course in 2017, Conoon and I have been budgeting and have budgeting meetings at the end of every month. The meetings kind of go like this:
Conoon: It’s time to do budget.
Suzy: NooooooOOOoooOOOoooo
Conoon: Okay, so this month we spent blah blah blah, next month we blah blah blah blah….
Suzy: OoOOOoooookay are we done yet?
Every. Single. Time. Conoon is CLEARLY the nerd in our relationship and I am the FREE SPIRIT, which means he has 15 minutes to get me through these budget meetings and if they go longer than that, I totally zone out and my body language does. not. lie.
But get this. To my HORROR, starting July, Conoon put me in charge of our budgeting meetings. Like I have to call the meeting and lead it!!!! UGhhhh. Okay, I was good at math in high school, but omg anything related to finances (except for me spending) is snoooooze-ville for me. But because I love being a good wife, I agreed.
And because I am a good wife, I need a good husband, which means he is to refer to me as “Budget Lord” when our budget meetings are in session.
This post has been brought to you by insomnia the night before our next scheduled budget meeting.
Goodnight.
