What the hell is that about. He is a great man, great provider, great father and all, but sometimes I wish he could have his own place, just for his crappy moods. He says when he is very miserable when I am going through PMS. How about, he has PMS all the darn time. At least mine is confined to 3 days during the month.

I am 65 and my wife is 60...She has had it made all of our married life 40 years...at leat in my eyes. My pet peeve and in the past is piles of things all over the house. And it is getting worse now that she is retired...She is one of the worst housekeepers that there is. I help all over the house, I cook almost every meal, wash dishes etc...HER biggest job is doing the laundry (and the only reason that she doesn't like me to do it is that I don't do it the way she likes). I have threatened to throw thngs out, put things away, given her boxes, stacked things on top of each other etc...all to no avail. My grown kids have talked to her, told her that they are embarased to have people over to the house etc...Is this some sort of mental disorder? Good morning,

I'll show you spoiled. Please pay particular notice to my post 'Any Old Port in a Storm.' I cover this very issue. My husband, excellent man though he is, leaves piles lying all over the house. Keys here, wallet there, newspapers, mail, clothes. I wear myself out following around, cleaning them up. Why in the world shouldn't I whine about it? How can that possibly be considered spoiled? Even good kids can be difficult to raise. Even great husbands can be pretty damned irritating. And even perfect wives (myself and Kathie included) can -- albeit only very rarely -- be touchy from time to time. If the men want to gripe about us, it's a free country -- let them gripe. As for me, just don't get in my way when I'm doing it. Griping is every woman's birthright. Go out and gripe yourself -- it's wonderfully therapeutic. Come visit my blog, Alice.

My Husband is always losing his wallet, keys and cell phone. And of course I am supposed to know where it is. I work full time and am expected to take care of the house, 2 kids, bills and grocery shopping and cooking. Of course he is too tired from work to help out. Well get a new job so your not so tired and grumpy. And he would chain me to the house if he could. He never want me do to things with my freinds because that means he would have to take care of the kids. And they are 6 and 8 now so its not that much work.... Besides that he is a good husband not out at bars and running around. He usually stays in the garage working on cars or bikes. Its like do I just do it all or be miserable and fight about it?
