I have to take Dan's point of view. It may be that he was proud to have taken care of the kids and had fun with them while you were away and he was wanting some sort of praise or validation or paraphrasing from you of what he was saying. But you interrupted with shortness and changed the subject. Consider the shoe on the other foot and you were telling him about some activity you had done with the kids and he interrupted to say how angry he was because of his truck having a bad transmission.
BobbiJo - Anytime you initiate any sort of R talk, it is not working now between the 2 of you because it turns into an argument. Just remember not to go down cheeseless tunnels and to work on having incredible patience.
