Arguing Over Money

Quote From: connolly2

I just looked at you vitals and it says you are from Colorado HAHAHAH thats where I want to move my family to.... Actually 20-30 miles outside Denver to the north....  small world....

 

Funny joke that i feel my wife is the punch line to

 

Women is flood and a boat comes by and they say come withus and she reploes "No the Lord will provide"

 

River getting higher and a boats comes again and the women responds " No the lorad will provide"

 

the river comes to the top of the house and a hilcopter comes by drops a ladder and tells her we will pull to safety and the womens says" No the Lord will provide"

 

The women dies and meet so GOD in heaven and she asks him why didn't you provide and God say" What do you mean I sent 2 boats and a hilocopter what more do you need?"

 

 

My wife is alwasy praying for God to help and its almost funny because I can jsut imagine the conversation in heaven. " What do you mean I sent you 250,000 in equity a good job to go to and a family(my sister and her family and my mom) in Colorado what more did you need?"

I don't know if you'll read this because its been a while.  Hopefully you have moved.  If not,  this is what I would recommend.  Why don't you contact a realtor, line up some very nice, affordable houses and take her there for a romantic weekend getaway and show her what she could have.  Maybe she can't see the forest for the trees.  She sounds very busy and I would certainly jump at the chance for a more relaxing lifestyle.  It sounds like you have faith so I would really pray hard for God to open her mind and her heart.  We had a beautiful new home in the most sought-after neighborhood.  I found this total fixer-upper on acreage and it was such a mess, no-one could see the potential.  We had always dreamed about a project like this but we were very comfortable in our fancy shmancy house.  My husband was overwhelmed when he saw it (it really was a HUGE mess) and wouldn't consider it.  I prayed and hard cause I felt that this was our home.  The realtor called a week later to say the price had dropped and my husband said, let's take another look.  He fell in love with it and we have been here for just over a year.  With the hard work we have done, the value has increase $150,000.  I stay home and our mortgage is only $700 a month.  We are on wood heat (no gas) and on a well ( no water meters).  You need to seriously work on showing your wife the benefits - maybe even suggest a one year trial to see if its the right move.  All I know is that alot of people are so focussed on watching for the signs that they miss them completely, like your story.
