Why don't men read directions?

I've been away for awhile, the department I'm helping in doesn't have much down time. Sad

Anyways so DH and I got into it last night over a freaking toddler bed! A.TODDLER.BED. All because DH didn't want to read the instructions. No, it wasn't that he just didn't want to read them, he flat out refused to look at them. I don't know if he was just in a bad mood or what but he was acting like a total idiot last night.

Just needed somewhere to write this out...

If you don't remember I posted last month about DH talking to another woman...one he had an emotional affair with a few years ago. I was livid. This is how things have progressed...

I threw a fit and told DH to stop talking to her. DH told me he was an adult and could do whatever he wanted, I was crazy and jealous and nothing was going on so stop being stupid. (He did tell me he was talking to her, I didn't just find out about it, so at least he wasn't hiding it-doesn't make me feel any better)

I love this!!!! Best definition of a parent I've ever heard from Celebrate Calm

"I am not responsible for fixing everything for my kids. I am not responsible for their happiness. You're bored? Okay. That's your choice. What are YOU going to do about YOUR boredom? Your brother is irritating? Well, welcome to life. People are irritating. What are YOU going to do so that you can enjoy your day even when other people don't do what you want them to do? Instead of controlling your brother, what can you do to control your own reaction?
