I told him I was paying for it myself & he didn't really say anything more about it so far. I figured if he had gotten mad about it I would've told him that I don't drink, smoke or spend wildly & it's my therapy! Luckily he didn't object. I hope to get it by the end of the week & I can hardly wait!

Hahahaha - I'm glad you're not in trouble. My Husband says "what are you going to do with THAT?" on just about everything I purchase and I tell him, "none of your business." Lol* He doesn't really care although sometimes he cringes as the $$$ add up. I am a stay at home Mother so I truly don't spend all THAT much. Right now our budget just doesn't allow it. But hey, as you said, I don't drink, I don't go out, I cut my own hair and I buy most of my clothes second hand. In my opinion I'm a pretty low maintenence wife! Just keep me supplied with fabric and batting and I'm pretty much happy!

He's been thinking about getting a new fishing boat & I told him this summer that I have no objection to it at all. In fact, he was always complaining about his trailer because the boat wouldn't go on right & I kept telling him to just get a new one & he finally did. Now he says I wish I would've gotten one a long time ago. Duh!! At least I don't have to listen to him constantly complaining about it anymore. He's possibly going on a hunting trip this weekend & I keep telling him to go too. Anything to get him out of my hair for a few days!!!!! I could use a few days of peace & quiet.

LOL. Maybe he was so quiet about it because he has something to tell you and is waiting for the right moment. I hope you told him the exact cost. Keep it real!

I did tell him what I paid for it & I also told him what a new one would have been so I think that may have helped.

I went through the same thing when I bought my long arm quilting machine. All he said was "I guess I wont be getting that new truck this year after all". He is pretty sweet do I had better hang on to him.
