I just discoved looking online that my WW cashed 2 checks last Friday at the bank. What is unusual is she normally does not cash a check. We keep petty cash at our office and if she needs to cash a check she usually does so at our office or she will ask me for cash.
The amounts where a little strange. One for $220 and another for $175.50.
I asked her about this Monday and she said it was cash in order to pay for my birthday presents. She almost acted like she was offended but backed off when I did not press the issue.
The birthday present thing I would by except she cashed 2 checks and the one for $175.50 seemed strange because of the 50 cents.
It almost seems like she bought a cashiers check for that amount.
My mind is wandering and I am praying to God for wisdom on what to do or say if anything. Scenerios in my mind are:
1) She bought another cell phone. Not likely since she got caught before with an extra.
2) She has sent in her application to reinstate her real estate license, which I questioned her about that earlier and she wanted to, but swore it had nothing to do with preping for a job if she leaves me.
3) She hired or put an attorney on retainer for later.
4) I am just being paranoid about the whole thing
Part of me says just let it go and let God sort it all out. I am so tired of trying to run interference and cking on things.

If you are wondering what they are for, go down to the bank and ask for a photo copy of the check. Then you will know who she wrote it out to.

I believe that I would have to go to the bank as well and see what these checks were for. Don't know your financial situation but $400.00 out of our finances unplanned would present a problem in itself.

Happy B'Day by the way (yesterday - the big 40)
Hope I'm right.
Well by now you know if the 175.50 was spent on your birthday present so my best guess is she went out and got herself another cell phone like you suspect.
Just because she got caught last time won't preclude a fogged out WW from thinking:
1. I'm an adult and I can have a secret cell phone if I want 2. BH can't control me 3. I'll be more careful with it this time and not get caught.
If WW were guys I would say they were thinking with their johnsons. I would search around for it. Maybe I'm wrong but don't get hoodswinkled by the fact you took away one before. Unbelievably, even my herion addict friends just go out an get another syringe(sp?) after I take away their syringes. <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />
Good luck, Mr. Wondering

My WH got caught twice with secret cell phones. I busted him sending OW money orders and money through his paypal account.

Waiting,
Why wouldn't she just go to the ATM and take out the $$.
Are the 2 checks from her checking account? Seems like she could hide the exact amounts better by just taking out a buch from the ATM.

We don't have an ATM card. Haven't had one in 20 years.
Cashing checks at our office from petty cash was easier. I have prayed about this and do not feel yet the timing to mention what I think it is to her.
Maybe it is nothing, but the 50 cent things sounds way too much like a cashing a check at the bank for a cashiers check for a specific amount.
