My dad can make three or four things REALLY well. My mom can make just about anything, also really well, but she tends to modify recipes to make them healthier or easier to prepare/clean up. Of course, she's the one who cooked most of the time when I was living at home. When my dad cooked, it was usually for a special occasion.
I'd still consider my mom a better cook since she can do everything my dad can do just as well, but she does it all the time and has a much better variety of stuff she can do. But really, they're both good cooks.

Shrug I cook better than my mom does but that's not saying much 😀

My ex gf thought it would be a good idea to go on a cruise when I had a bunch of balance on my CC (accumulated during a phase where I was selling my old house and buying a new one.) I told her no, not until all CC Balances are 0. She whined.
It's nice being back on my own again with nobody trying to help me spend my money.

You should sex her up so long and hard that she forgets the whole thing for a week.

What a selfish thing to ask. Why does she think she deserves to go on a vacation while the rest of you stay home? Serious red flag here.

SunnyD: I'm with you, man. Totally right there with you.
My wife, normally an intelligent, rational woman, also thinks I have a money tree growing out of my ass and that I finger-fish money out of my cornhole on a daily basis. She knows what I make, what I pay out but somehow just can't do the fucking math. :roll:
The REALLY interesting thing is what her spendy hang-up is; VACATIONS...just like your wife.
She'll clip coupons, buy generic brand everything at the store, etc. But out of the blue, on a Thursday, she'll just spout "Jenny (her sister) and (insert friends of family here) are going to (insert weekend trip that will cost $600+ dollars) this weekend!!! It will be fun. We should go!!!" Huh...whaaat? 😕
And exactly where do I pull $600 from? Credit cards need to be PAID BACK....HELLLL-FUCKINGEELLLLL-OOOOOOO!????? Anyone home in there? Light goes in the left ear and out the right ear.
We've had "that conversation" about 100X. Doesn't matter. It's like going away for the weekend is the social equivalent of a big dick (big vagina?) for her. It's a social status thing. I could care less. We have a nice apartment (1,900 SF...not a misprint), satellite TV, internet, big screen, dishwasher, AC, booze and all that good shit. I WANT TO STAY HOME AND ENJOY WHAT I PAY FOR GODAMMIT!!! But her? Oh, no. Got to go AWAY. Stay in some hotel...oh it's OH SO GLAMOROUS!!!!!!!! Whatever.
Marriage is servitude. Period.

Maybe you can't afford a lot of time off, but consider taking a day with the family and just getting away from everything. I had to do that last year , everyone was getting on each others nerves, bills were coming in, kids complaining. So we all took a day off and went fishing. Cut off the cell phones and let nobody know where we would be. Broke the tension and everything went better after.
