A Wedding and Some Grumbles

I got an official invitation to Kaitlyn and Brian's wedding today. I'm so happy for those two. The wedding is on September 13th. I think I'll wear my black dress with the little white dots. I love that I already have something to wear! I put $100 for their wedding gift into August's budget but it may have to slide to September. August is already a little snug.

As for the grumbling, the first one is about Bank of America. That is where Ron's loan (which is in my name due to my superior credit) for the Audi is. I got a call today from them claiming that we had not made a payment on the thing yet. I didn't know anything about it because Ron takes care of that since it comes out of his car allowance. When they went to verify my address it turns out that it was wrong so that was the problem, we hadn't gotten a bill yet. Once that got fixed, they wanted to know if I could make a payment then to avoid a late fee. I said sure thinking that I Ron could write me a check from his business account today and pay us back. I made the payment and even avoided the $15.00 fee that they wanted to charge me by talking to someone's supervisor. No problem. I then emailed Ron and jokingly said that he owed me big time for saving him from a late fee. He wrote back saying that he had made a payment over the phone a few days ago. Argh! It looks like we paid twice. I don't if Ron has the money to pay me back now and I don't know if BofA will consider the extra payment August's payment so that Ron won't have to pay them next month and will be able to pay me then or if they just applied it to principle which means I might have really screwed us up. Again, aargh!

My second bit of grumbling involves the Robby and Ron saga. I talked to Robby today about some of Ron's issues, though I presented them as "our" issues. As soon as I started talking I knew that I had screwed up and should have stayed out of it. Robby did not take it well. He said that he is going to school and working a bunch and does not always have time to take care of every little thing. He also said that the only times I talk to him is when I am nagging him or saying something negative. The thing is that I agree with some of what he said. For awhile there I was making a really active effort to stay out of his life and not let him get to me. I need to get back to that. It is so easy for me to get fixated on him. I think I do so when I am anxious about other things or maybe even when I don't have much else to think about. I need to focus on the things that I am really responsible for and let him live his own life.
