Husband for sale….real cheap!
Okay, first lets get to the nitty gritty….I gained two pounds over my weekend away. Not as bad as I thought it would be and today when I stepped on the scale it was gone. I think I ran it away.
Diet wise I have been doing good since getting back. Running has been great and so far so good, even with the achille’s tendon acting up, I am still running 1.5 miles at a time…yay me 
Now the husband part….AND I AM SO MAD I AM SPITTING NAILS AS WE SPEAK.
He was coming home from Oahu yesterday, and as usual left everything to the last minute and was running late. He stopped at the ATM to grab some cash out of my account before getting on the plane..why he need cash to fly 20 minutes I still don’t know…..but being the fucking airhead that he can be, he took his cash, did not close out the account and left his bank card in the machine. Well…you got it…not even one minute after he left some nice person took 500 dollars out of my account. Yup, 500 fucking dollars..gone.
He has access to my account in case he runs out of money. He cannot write checks, but I gave him a bank card…needless to say he doesn’t get another. This is the second time he did this, but fortunately it is the first time anyone has stolen anything from me. And it is a good thing, I have a cap on the amount he can take or they may have cleaned me out and I just got paid today…
Yes, he feels bad and yes, he feels like a dumb ass….so I was all prepared to just let it go….suck it up..shit happens.. and then this morning he says to me, “we can just use the 500 as my valentine’s gift, so you don’t have to get my anything.” I just stared at him and then said….you are not worth 500 dollars! Needless to say things are not too cool at our house right now. 500 dollars is a lot of money and I dont’ have that kind of money to just throw away.
I filed a police report, I wasn’t going to cause they will never catch them, but the bank said to do so, I did. The police told me it is a felony bank fraud, and they are going to check the videos etc at the airport, and we have to also report it to the airport police. I guess it is a bigger deal than I thought..I didn’t think they would give a darn about 500 bucks, but they do….
I am still trying to not be mad at him cause I know how bad he feels but I also get the feeling that he feels, OH well Shannon can just earn more….
fuck

Won’t the bank replace that money? It IS insured, you know. Years ago, someone stole my ex-husband’s bank card and got money out of the ATM, plus used it at several stores and charged up a couple of thousand dollars in stuff and I know that the bank replaced what came out of our account, because it was reported to them and to the police. Oh, honey, you know I am well acquainted with being angry as hell at the DH. As for money management, my now-DH and I keep our finances separate: I pay for some bills, he pays for others, but our accounts are separate. He’s actually a better money manager than I am, but I like knowing what’s in my account at all times - comes from NOT always knowing in my first marriage, I guess - so this works for us. I suspect you could use a hug right about now, eh? I’m sending you one, and also saying (although I KNOW you’re seriously angry right now) that these things pass, and you will be feeling better about it all. I’m better this week myself, and as you know, I was ready to kick my D(for dumb-ass) to the curb.
Hugs,
Z
OMG! I’d kill him. Once, okay, shit happens…Twice???
Hang in there! Go run it off. Let off steam!
(((((HUGS)))))
Geez! I don’t blame you for not providing another opportunity for tension! I’m hoping you get your money back sooner rather than later. Karma - man why would someone risk that by taking someone else’s hard earned money?
Good things are on the way Shannon! No doubt!
You are also kicking ass on your exercise and food as well!

Ohhhh- I think he is lucky you didn’t pinch his head off. SIGH! I am sorry and I hope you get your money back. You should, it wasn’t your fault. The people who did this to you just created bad karma for themselves though. Hope it was worth it.
This reminds me of something I read…everything we needed to know we learned in kindergarten..”Boys are Stoopid”. Haha. It so sounded like something my other half would do and say..perhaps they are brothers..long lost ones? *grin* Hopefully it will fix itself (with the help of the authorities)!
Your post about the large man really “jolted” me. I actually read it 3 times. It made me sad for that man, his family and for you, the people that tended to him. that may stay with you a long time. What problesm that man must of faced daily.
While I have weight to lose, I am not to that extent ( Thank You God!) but you have helped to give me more determination to stop those little cheats I have been doing the last week or 2…thank you so much. I know, a stranger replying to your blog might feel creepy, but I really felt I wanted to say thank you…
Blessings & peace
