~ Why is it that shitty weather seems to bring out the 'idiot' in people and their driving skills?

Speaking of the shitty weather, if it does not quit raining incredibly soon, I swear I'm going to scream my head off until it stops.  Well, I want to.  I'm that mad about it.  My car literally has puddles of water in the floor boards (all but my driver side front) that I'm going to have to soak out once I get home.  The pasture is soup, so I still can't get in to do anything with my horse.  Everyplace else is too wet and nasty to be out in.  It's keeping me cooped up in the house and it's driving me nuts.

~ Do you ever encounter a scenario where someone does something that sort of screws up your plans, or your routine, and it just causes such immediate panic/stress as you're reorienting yourself that you don't even want to talk about it, think about it, or know about it just yet?

While he probably meant well, my husband deposited his check into our checking account today.  He kept out $109.  I have no idea why the oddball number, and he said he didn't have any intentions for it, he just figured he better keep some out. 

Now, I won't complain because he didn't bring me the cash first, because the company's switch to direct deposit would have eliminated that anyway.  However, if he's gonna take it upon himself to do shit, at least take a moment to think.  He could have kept out enough cash to pay my dad, or that plus what he needs for two weeks of work lunch.  Something, but not just some oddball random amount. 

Further, and the most alarming, he clearly has it of mind that he has some control and some say so over the account(s) ... and he's going to be told to back off.  Absolutely under no circumstances is he going to have freedom on the accounts, and I'm thinking of calling the bank to set it up as such also.  He could too easily fuck us over and I'm not playing that game, sorry.

This was the event that I just sort of had to stop in the middle of and just tell him that we'd discuss it once I got home, instead of through text while I'm at work.  It probably just SEEMS like a bigger headache than what it is, but at the same time, the implications it could have.   Oh yup, here we go ... sorry, shutting myself down here, I don't feel like worrying about it just yet.  Every other asshole drank the last of the coffee so I'm flying solo right now and I'm just not in the mood to stress myself out.

    This weather beats the 120 degrees I had to deal with during the summer!
    Why the odd amount deposited? He must have put some in for the both of you, and kept some for his pocket. This is a guy thing.

    I like rain.. to a point.  Not when it makes the world a bowl of soup.

    The money thing, it is SO a guy thing, that is really just a terrible thing unless the guy has money smarts.  Don't get me wrong females with zero money smarts should NOT touch any bank accounts.  No No No.

    Mixed - Well, I don't know, after a week of rain, and it disabling me from doing so many things ... I dunno.  About the husband, there was no motive to his action, he just figured he should keep some cash out, not accounting for the fact that the cash I do generally keep from his paycheck is a specific amount, that being for the rent we pay my dad, and for two weeks worth of his work lunch expense.  None went into his pocket, he expressly made sure to show me his pay stub, which shocked me in a good way.

    Simply - Yeah, it's all soup here.  And my husband is one of those guys lacking money smarts.  If he wants it, he gets it, and THEN he worries about what he needed that money for, which is why it was of concern to me.  Luckily, no harm done.  :-)

I guess I am pretty lucky because we are pretty good at backing each other up. But there is one subject matter that we are polar opposites on, and its looking like we are going to have...
