DISTRICT COURT OF APPEAL OF THE STATE OF FLORIDA FOURTH DISTRICT July Term 2005 TODD E. GREENHOUSE, Appellant, v. CAROLINE GREENHOUSE, Appellee. No. 4D05-1587 [October 12, 2005] PER CURIAM. We reverse the temporary support order. The trial court abused its discretion in ordering the husband to pay $3,000 per month in undifferentiated support to the wife, as there was no evidence in the record to support the conclusion that the husband had the ability to pay this amount. Further, in making the undifferentiated award, the trial court did not identify which share of the award was for child support and which was intended to be alimony. Blum v. Blum, 769 So. 2d 1142, 1143 (Fla. 4th DCA 2000); see Fleischfresser v. Accursio, 833 So. 2d 803, 804 (Fla. 3d DCA 2002).
