Sorry this is really long....
We are doing an out of state move this week. DH and I each had our own things to take care of. I had the moving arrangements, and the inspections on the house we're buying. DH had dealing with the bank doing our mortgage because it will be in just his name.
Our lease on our current house ends tomorrow, but our close date on our new house wasn't until Aug. 10, so we were trying to get the bank to move it up, which involved bugging them for the appraisal. It finally got done on Friday, and they said it came back fine but because the house was sold in January, they need to do another appraisal before we can set a close date
I would love to blame the bank on this, but then DH and I had the following conversation:
DH: "I don't know why they have to do that, all they asked me was whether the house had been sold in the last 6 months and I said no."
Me: "Why'd you say that?"
DH: "Because January isn't within 6 months of July."
Me: "Yes, it is."
DH: "Oh."
Okayyyyyyyy, fine. Whatever, you can't do simple math, ok. That's good. Glad you have a PhD.
Now, we are leaving our current town first thing in the morning, and I reminded DH to go get the cashier's check for closing because we won't have access to our bank once we leave town (we had discussed this issue several times before). He calls me and tells me that the mortgage lady doesn't think we should get the check yet because she can't give us a final number. Another conversation:
Me: "Did you ask her what her suggestion was in our situation, since we won't be ABLE to get the check after today?"
DH: "No."
Me: "So what are you going to do."
DH: "I don't know."
Me: "What's your plan for getting the check?"
DH: "I don't know."
WHAT the hell?????? I guess I was really stupid to assume that DH would have discussed this with the mortgage lady before 3 pm on the day we're leaving town. I love my DH to death, but sometimes he acts like such a child, I don't know how he made it on his own for 8 years before we started dating. It just *#&$#@ me off that I feel like I have to do everything or it won't get done.

OT DH Rant...
My DH pulls the same stuff when it comes to finances, and it doesn't phase him one bit. I on the other hand am constantly worried. Men are sooooo spoiled.
