Thanks for stopping by. I appreciate the reference on the books. I will look around for those. I don't think my husband enjoys needling me... I really think it's a survival instinct. Since he came from a family where a child might get slapped for dropping a fork, I think he resorts to any means available to avoid having the focus on his own wrong actions. Needling me gets the reaction that allows him to point out my error instead of his. His whole family has hangups about everything being perfect. My H is the one who is closest to normal, but it still shines through with the hypercritical attitutude and the lecturing on my "mistakes" and the revisionist history, etc. It must be tough to have to be right all of the time. At least he seems to understand that the pressure to be perfect is really tough to live with... even if he doesn't think he pressures me to be perfect. [rolls eyes]
We had a lazy weekend. Mostly, we sat on the couch watching movies. Last night we went to a birthday party for a friend. Tonight we've got Italian conversation group. H is cooking dinner and I've got to get back to doing some graphic designs. Ciao! --z
