My DH and I have a great system for our Hobbies - we share with each other what we're doing, working on, etc. but he pays for his, I pay for mine and as long as we can do that, we don't really 'care' what the other one does. It works for us! I will say he did splurge for me Christmas and hired a house cleaner since between work, quilting, taking care of other family members, there weren't enough hours left in my day! Gotta Love the man
