Joint Credit Cards
November 13, 2012
It's a very sad day for me today. I just opened the last of the paper towels and laundry detergent that I bought with our joint credit cards. It lasted close to a year. I wish I had started my purchases sooner but for a while I was in no shape to actually do any practical thinking.
I now realize I could have been more thoughtful in my selections at the time. For instance I still have enough kitty litter to last until summer. Suntan lotion galore. ( What was I planning?) Tissues for all the crying. I thought that would eventually stop but I was wrong. At least I don't have to worry about dry eye syndrome. Enough toilet paper to take me into 2013 and body lotion and bath gel to last for a while.
Now I'm wishing that I had bought myself a little bauble or two. I certainly deserved to treat myself. But maybe I wouldn't have been able to wear it without feeling disgust. I continue trying to decide what to wear on my left ring finger but still nothing seems quite right.
So my advice to all those who discover they are being cheated on and especially if you have documented proof that your money is being used to support some tramp, start spending early. I wish I had. I'd still be rolling in paper towels and detergent.

So many people have asked the same questions either directly or to one of my friends. Here are some answers.
1. Yes. I am staying in "that house." It's not that big, I love my kitchen and now I have lots of new
things to enjoy.
2. No. I don't want to move to "the shoreline." As impossible as that is to believe!
3. No. I had no clue he was cheating. Even though the signs were all there.
4. Yes. I am a strong person but this is VERY hard.
5. Yes. It's true, I had no idea what our finances were like.
6. No. I am not increasing my work hours unless it becomes absolutely necessary.
7. No. The KY jelly did not belong to me.
8. Yes. I do miss having a man around the house.
9. And to the people who implied he is such a stud for "converting" a lesbian (apparently the fantasy
of many men. Who knew?) and to the few who actually had the nerve to ask me, maybe she just
has nothing to compare him with.
10. Just an update on my garden. I have picked four very small grape tomatoes from my container
plants. But Hindinger's tomatoes and peaches are delicious this year. Last night I made a tomato
and peach salad with my freshly picked basil.
