Bought a Futon Couch at Wal*Mart for the Bonus room. It’s nice to have a couch again.

I was up a little too late reading (just past midnight), and so had a hard time getting up today. Ray is being a pain today – very attention grabbing, and demanding.

I did the bills, and Renee looked over my shoulder and saw how much I spent on a new pair of sunglasses. She’s now mad because I spent a bit more than I should have ($160). I probably shouldn’t have spent it, I know, but I’m tired of having cheap sunglasses that don’t fit right, break quickly, or fall to pieces after a few weeks. These have a 1 year, no questions asked replacement policy, fit very well, and don’t give me headaches, like some of the others I’ve had.

She’s really mad because I didn’t want to spend a lot of money on wallpaper for Ray and the Baby’s rooms. And I suppose she has that right – I’m denying her something she really wants ($29.95/roll), then splurging on a pair of sunglasses. I offer to take back the sunglasses, if it’s that big a deal, and she says “No.”

She’s outside now, getting over it. If not, I’ll be glad we have a couch now.

We’re both tired, and grumpy today. Maybe we’ve been spending too much time together. Aside from the few days I’ve gone into the office (or spent a day running errands), we’ve been in each other’s space 24×7 for almost a month now.

We’ll deal. I think. We usually do. But I have a feeling this will be a bone of contention for more than just a few hours today…
