Getting our House in Order

This weekend was a long weekend for Master and I. We both had Friday off work and he has Monday although I have to work tomorrow. That always sucks. A lot. I tend to miss him a lot more and feel bad when he is home and I'm not there to look after him. We had originally planned to go to the gym as per normal to workout on Saturday but I can't find my ID card and so that was off the table.

Yesterday we worked out at home instead and then I baked cinnamon buns, something I haven't made in over a year. Our oven cooks hot, though, so the buns are a bit drier and darker than I like. They still tasted pretty good, though, especially when topped with cream cheese icing. Master is going to take the rest of the buns into work to give them to the guys he works with since I'm trying to cut back on the fattening stuff I eat.

We had our dinner last night instead of tonight. That's the neat thing about being by ourselves- we don't have to please anyone but ourselves. Who cares if its normal to have Easter supper on Sunday? It worked out better for Master and I so we did what worked.

We then took a look at our finances and made a couple of changes. One big one- I'm not going to have access to my money. On payday, I'm going to transfer my paycheque to Master and he'll hold onto it. Then, when my car loan comes due or a bill needs to be paid or I need to pay for gas, he'll transfer me the money back.

I think it's a good move. It gives us a bigger pool of cash to work with when paying bills and it cuts down on my random spending, something I am still working on. It also moves us towards my being dependent on Master as well, something we both have wanted from very early in our relationship.

The good thing is that if things don't work as intended, or we find it just isn't convenient, we can always just go back to the way things were before.
