Dear Wife,
I love you and you deserve the best. Your job can be stressful at times and I know every once in a while you need a break. Usually you book a vacation with your girlfriends, and I'm ok with that BUT on this last trip you spent over $1500 on our credit card!!
Not sure how I'm going to explain this one to all my readers...
Love,
Your husband.

Holy crap. Please tell me that was for the plane, hotel and everything.
Wait she takes a vacation with just her friends? By the way, count how many times the word 'you' is in that note, and there's only one 'our' in there. I think the both of you need to figure out what is going to happen with the money and these trips. Hope the both of you can get this kind of stuff worked out.
Dear Husband on Debt Blog,
Why don;t you talk with your wife in real life instead of posting passive-aggressive bits on your blog?
And by the way, your readers aren't entitled to any explanation. But I would like to think that no matter how large her faux pas, your wife is entitled to the respect of not being scolded like a child in a public setting.
Signed, a woman whose husband has enough respect to keep private things private.
Christy!
I like that LOL. I just really want out of debt, our spending is out of control and i truly don't know how to control it and be more frugal.
I am a good husband, I swear LOL

Thanks for taking it tongue-in-cheek, as intended. ;)
Talk to your wife, HS. She was probably just blowing off steam, but clearly you guys are not on the same page financially. If you'd been talking about money, a trip like that may have been post-phoned for a few months until your discover card was paid off.
Dialogue. Communication. "I'm worried right now because....". (And not the snotty blogger public talk. ;) )
But I have to admit, you've mentioned a new computer (even purchased frugally) and some other wild expenses this month...why is your spending ok, and your wife's deserves ridicule? Seems really unfair.
Get on the same page and treat the woman you call "the most beautiful on the planet" with the privacy she deserves. She is your equal and this post was really disrespectful.
My two cents - probably worth less with the exchange. ;)
