odds and ends and wills

Several hours ago, M asked me about financial matters in an accusatory tone that always sets me on edge. I didn't get too angry, but testy. This is information I have provided for her previously. She conveniently forgets that half our savings are in stocks, and gets distressed that our savings that she sees @ the ATM are smaller than she'd like....

Tends to accuse me of over-spending (I am as frugal as our house and lifestyle allow for).

Just gets nasty over money.

I didn't rise to the bait, I did get testy. But no more than.

Instead, I asked if she was trying to set it up for us to go toe to toe all afternoon or what? "I just asked a couple of questions..." says she.

Then I said, I'm going to take off for a couple hours and then come back. She responded, "Go see a movie"....

Whatever.
