I assumed he retired and there really isnt a money crunch from your post but sometimes during big changes we get concerned about things. Best not to let it fester.
He did retire last July, but now is consulting where he used to work. So right now we do have the money, but we're alsopaying off a home equity loan on our house and a mortgage on our vacation home. sometimes I do spend too much so I will try to do better.(maybe) He wasn't mean about it or tell me i can't buy any fabric, so I'm not too worried. I can do with less food and then I wouldn't have to buy new clothes b/c I have a lot right now that don't fit.(giggles)
