Done?

Work decoration that it-I had the beads, I had the pipe cleaners-little circles, then the 'wreaths' strung together in the shape of a tree with gold and green beads. Total number of hours worked on-Saturday-6, Sunday 8. Still brought construction paper to work in case need paper ring chain or snowflake. Also have good old elmers glue... Now we will see what happens. I will be keeping the wreath tree-it came out pretty-and does look like a design you would have seen in the 50s or 60s sort of-which fits the theme of "Retro".

Friday talked more with DH about budjet-changes are coming. I told him that I want lines on budget for BOTH of us where amounts are posted so we each have spending money. Then I know how much I have at a time. And it is planned. If an emergency happens and it has to be reduced temporarily-I will understand. But it was a calm discussion and he got my point of view about not having a knowledge of how much "I" had available. But having to tell him each time. No way to "save up" my spending money separately for a large purchase. I have talked to him about setting up an account to put money in for our trips back to IL-now that we don't have savings bonds-paper ones that is. Since Sept. government doesn't issue paper ones-and we didn't set up a separate account for ebonds-the whole purpose of us having savings bonds was their portability and the fact that they were cashable at any US bank without a fee! So, now he wants me to do more legwork on the Credit Union here. I already have some info.
