Suddenly Mrs. Ray's and my communication begins to break down. We talk about individual bills, and I set up a spreadsheet with everything laid out - who pays who for what bill. But Mrs. Ray is upset because she thought all the bills were settled except for the big charge card we always use. I have an MBA, and have dealt with charts & spreadsheets for years. But Mrs. Ray still wants to do one account at a time. (OK, there's a communication problem here, but I'm doing my best to represent Mrs. Ray's idea.) Now, she's irritated/frustrated, and I am too (from the opposite side of the same problem!) So much for a peaceful evening.
I still pray that God would inform my thoughts and actions with Mrs. Ray.
[Update: Mrs. Ray manually added up everything and it all worked out. Whew!]
