I think the bill paying issue was a matter of bookkeeping-sounded to me like there are different accounts/budgeting for different areas/groups, and I suspect b/c the one said her reason for opening it was b/c she and another wife had bills from the same-it was a credit card statement. I'm guessing there are multiple credit cards, maybe under the husband's name but they are broken into different budgets. so personal expenses of one wife/her kiddos get paid from her budget while a whole household expense gets paid from the household budget. the person doing the household budget seemed to just want to know if that expense was going to be paid on a continuing basis by the other individual wife (understandable imho).
the wife who went nuts over it seems a bit off to me. she concedes having deep issues with people saying anything negative to her-but I noticed she looked REALY smug and satisfied when the husband did a complete turnaround on the idea of having these conversations between the wives (and the one who talked to her about it initially as well as one of the others had a look like 'here we go again'). makes me wonder if the one is good at manipulating situations to get her way-blow up at the husband and 'things are back to normal' (as she was happy to say when he announced the end of the conversations).
seems an interesting show-not so much (so far
) fluff as sister wives. this one doesn't look like it will be all about parties and 'lets start THIS new business this week'. be interested to see if they decide to move where they end up-we have polygamist families in areas near us (by their manner of dress when out shopping i'de say not full blown flds but not 'modern' either) but I don't think it's common in seattle-and talk about culture shock

... I thought truck drivers usually slept in their trucks? - if so, then why was Meri so special and got to sleep in a hotel? 
... I laughed when the guy said whomever didn't meet the challenge had to pay $72 for their steak ... I thought they were on a tight budget, but they had the $$ to pay for all those unfinished steaks? 
...
... But, it's all just my opinion ... 
She does not act like a Sister Wife because she does not see herself as one. She sees herself as the head of the family, not Kody (as they all claim).
