DH is cutting his hours down to 75% next year, to do more study, and I offered him to get by until July next year (the end of the Australian financial year) with no outlay on clothes except spending vouchers and buying summer sandals (my one true need, as I wear out a pair every summer). Also suggested I not renew my gym membership. Would have saved us about $1000AUD a year with those 2 things.
But - DH said no, I don't have to give these things up, and that he didn't ask me to cut corners.
Just as well, because I have since decided that my boots are not worth remending and now I can replace them next winter. Not to mention replacing a number of things that I bought in my first year on YLF (new jeans)
I hope his kindness is being responsible! I did think it rather sweet of him - Have you ever been in a similiar situation?
