I Hate Him
Well, I guess I really don’t hate my husband, or I wouldn’t have a blog about him and our marriage, now would I? My husband has many positive traits, but I have created this blog to help me get out my frustration at the other traits.
For example, let’s go over a few irritating things he did and said today. First, all of the corrections he gave me about child-rearing (despite that I am home with the children alone during the 70 hours each week he works, as I am a stay-at-home and work-at-home mother). The other thing is job search-related (and stupid-related, as in stupid husband tries to job search). On the other hand, don’t even get me started about his d&%# job “search.” Let’s stick to his “suggestions” on how I can better care for our children. (It’s kind of odd for him to be critical of how I rear the children when he rarely ever sees them. That’s fine.)
SO, my husband was trying to sleep at 11:00am. The boys and I had already been up for over 3 hours. Our youngest son kept trying to go into the room–this makes it hard for my husband to sleep, so I was trying to coax my son into the living room. He wasn’t having it–he wanted his dad.
So, finally I said, “Let’s go” and picked him up, and he started screaming. My husband half opens one eye and says, “You aren’t doing it right. You have to talk him into it, not just take him out of the room.” OH MY GOSH. PLEASE SHUT UP. Do you think there’s a chance he was joking and knew how dumb it was to correct me in that scenario?
