I want it so badly! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/dh-justifying-his-wants#post-2171044 Thu, 07 May 2015 15:34:17 +0000 Mrs. Lemon-Lime 2171044@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MrsH: the local weekend E-MBA programs have too much of an international business focus for his liking. He's looking at a couple online programs, but there isn't a cost savings. Plus he wants to take the baby Finance courses since he wasn't a business major undergrad eventhough he's worked in finance and banking for over a decade. How did your husband like his program? </p> <p>The condo is four hours away and his sister will be our tenant. She's complaining that her current apartment's rent is too high. #hellorentcontrol #notnyc #thankgoodnessforbigbrothers </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/dh-justifying-his-wants#post-2171030 Thu, 07 May 2015 15:24:07 +0000 magnolia 2171030@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Golf carts are so fun! go for it!!!

Baby is due in two months and while he noted the not perfect timing he provided a list for reasons why it was a great idea. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/dh-justifying-his-wants#post-2170840 Thu, 07 May 2015 14:16:43 +0000 Chillybear 2170840@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@buttermilk: It easier to ask for forgiveness than permission some times </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/dh-justifying-his-wants#post-2170833 Thu, 07 May 2015 14:14:46 +0000 buttermilk 2170833@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Chillybear: lol!!! Husbands :) </p> <p>@snowjewelz: hahaha! </p> <p>Man I wish I had a good story, but DH never has anything he wants to buy. It's always me justifying purchases, and he usually goes along. Or at least doesn't get too mad when I buy it without him. I learned a while ago to just go to Ikea/Target ALONE or I would never end up with anything in my cart! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/dh-justifying-his-wants#post-2170818 Thu, 07 May 2015 14:11:24 +0000 snowjewelz 2170818@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Chillybear: Thats what I said... I said mine is mothers day related and not even $20 (DD's initial bracelet). Then he said well I can protect her with my hunting rifle and use it to scare away boys later. :meh: :meh: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/dh-justifying-his-wants#post-2170812 Thu, 07 May 2015 14:08:18 +0000 mamimami 2170812@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Chillybear: @snowjewelz: My gift a couple years ago was a baseball glove WTF </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/dh-justifying-his-wants#post-2170806 Thu, 07 May 2015 14:06:28 +0000 Chillybear 2170806@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@snowjewelz: Was your mothers day gift an archery set? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/dh-justifying-his-wants#post-2170802 Thu, 07 May 2015 14:04:46 +0000 snowjewelz 2170802@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Haha this is a great thread! DH kept sending me listing for boats for a while :shocked: And now he wants a hunting rifle...?! And he said since I picked out and ordered my own mothers day present, that means he can get a hunting rifle has his fathers day present?! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/dh-justifying-his-wants#post-2170788 Thu, 07 May 2015 13:55:38 +0000 Alivoo01 2170788@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Chillybear: lol!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/dh-justifying-his-wants#post-2170773 Thu, 07 May 2015 13:50:52 +0000 Chillybear 2170773@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Alivoo01: oh its not happening.... i will go watch the movie, but i will not spend 12-24 hours of my "freetime" putting legos together </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/dh-justifying-his-wants#post-2170770 Thu, 07 May 2015 13:49:16 +0000 Alivoo01 2170770@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Chillybear: holy cow!! I just foresee lots and lots of pieces lying everywhere. Ouch. ouch. ouch. ouch. lol</p> <p>DH tries to justify all his (potential) purchases by stating it is for DS.
