Are our comments confidential?

Recently something I had said at either one of our gatherings or on this blog got back to my hubby. I might say things or explain how I would react in a certain situation, but if that situation were to actually arise, I never react the way I said I would. I am an over reactor in thought, but not in action. Needless to say, the comment that got back to my hubby sparked a two day argument. My understanding of what we say to each other is suppose to stay between us. I actually have no problem if my comments are shared with spouses as long as the spouse doesn't go back and share it with my husband. If I feel that what I share could be compromised, then I guess I will not share my comments anymore regardless of whether they are positive or negative. Does anyone else have a comment or thought on this?

Just Venting!!

We recently put a couch downstairs in Dr K's office because a friend gave us their old one. I got it to put in our family room that we don't have, but hope to someday. He said since there was no family room yet, he could put it in the office. Big mistake! He lives down there now! He comes home from call and sleeps down there! Uggggg! Yesterday he got home early, about 3:30 and went straight down to the office. I went down several times (a clue that I was lonely and wanted his company) to find him reading or on the computer. I told him I thought it was convenient that he didn't come up until 8:15 after I had struggled bathing the kids and putting them to bed all by myself. He said he had no idea what time it was and that I should've just asked him for help. He said he would've come up. Just goes to show that communication is soooo very important in a relationship. Sometimes all we need to do is tell them how we're feeling and try to come up with a compromise. Now, if I could just remember that!
