Men!

I think I'm going to hide in the quilty room for a day or two.
Yesterday we had a big argument about the kitchen/condo/etc. The traffic in town was all stalled by an accident on one of the main N/S roads (for 7 hours) A tractor trailer turned over and hit several cars, spilled his load of beer cans everywhere, etc.
So, on the way to the cabinet maker's shop we had to take a detour-got lost, the GPS in the truck didn't have the right info. Etc. You get the picture.
On arriving 1 hr. late at the location we played nice, but there were some real hurt feelings on my part. I've decided that he can make those decisions on counter tops, bath fixtures, toilets, etc. This place isn't supposed to be my "home" so it's just not worth the energy to argue over it.
On thinking about it like a lot of men DH doesn't allow any time driving for slow traffic, lights, detours, etc. He gets angry behind the wheel, talks on his cell phone on the interstate, etc. Trying to "fit in" these decisions and little trips during work times, etc. Really, he hasn't been the same since the Proton treatment for the prostate cancer. Low energy, gained weight, mild depression.etc.
I'm thinking about making an appt. with his proton doctor to talk about it.
On the good news, it is sunny and about 65 today. I took both dogs to the doggie park this morning and they had a great time, needed to run around.
