Talking to a Brick Wall ,,,  

I agree,
When it's all said and done I am even more angry simply because apparently my point of view does not matter and so ignored.
Thanks !

Yes kar,

There are good teachers and bad ones as we know. My daughter still in college would tell you the same. There is nothing worst than asking a question from someone who is supposed to know more than yourself and getting either a blank stare or being treated as though your question is "Out of line" simply because He or She simply does not know the answer and can't keep up with the student.

Don't worry , I'm sure Bill gates and Stephen Hawkins experienced the same things in school and look where they are now !

You just keep up the good work ! You may be the next Einstein !

I'll give you an example of this morning cloud,

We had a water leak from the roof attached to the upstairs.
Well it ruined the drywall and paint on that wall and part of the ceiling. I am able to repair this myself and have been doing so for about three days. In the meantime there is a hole about 6 inches wide between the studs in the wall.
Now mind you , I have 25 years experience in drywall and am doing all the work. But for three days I have ask him to please cover the plumbing at night to prevent mice, snakes, spyder ect from coming in. HIS part. He keeps putting this off and I am terrified of doing this myself as I am so afraid of that sort of "creature" .

So this morning while I am having my coffee mouse ran across the room in front of me ! well, I FREAKED OUT.. I may have gone overboard I will admit I accused him of not listening to me and covered myself with a blanket for two hours afraid to move.

He called me a "Child" and said I was being a Stupid B*tch and he would do it when he got ready. So yes , at that point I was not only crying but Very angry. I took care of the problem myself even though touching this area inside the wall really scared me.

Anyway , he stormed off and I haven't seen him since.

another day living with a " Brick Wall".
Sigh,

I can't imagine how was your reaction,seeing a mouse while your having a cup of coffee,that's scary,and still saying your a "Child" hahaha.you know what I guess sometimes we need to initiate something before they will do things for us,lol. So,you lost your temper I guess seeing that creator passed into you.You made me laughed imagining you moon!!.

The spiders scare me even more than a mouse. My kitty cats will take care of them in short order. They are a tag team.

LOL @ cloud,

Yes , I'll admit I'm a big wimp when it comes to mice and spyders. .

To Annie,

I Want a cat both for compaiononship and for the "critters" like that that I am so afraid of. He says no. He dosn't like them.

Sigh,

I don't find spiders scary than the mouse itself, If mouse is around I could jump at least 3 feet of laundry clothes..

While spiders I could just let it pass slowly while I'm climbing up into the couch.

HA! That's what mine said 15 yrs ago when we moved in together, and I got 1 anyway. Then, when he died, HE went out and got me another one. She turned out to be pregnant, had kittens, I gave her and 2 kittens away and NOW WE HAVE 2! Just do it, see what he does. Oh, dear, would he move out.

Hiya Annie,

I'm wondering what would happen if I just slipped one in on him.
Hmmm. Thinking about it.

Hey it worked for you !

seeya !

Same here. I don't expect everyone to agree with me , but at least hear me out .
That's all I'm asking.

As a matter of fact, I think I am married to the biggest 'brick wall'. He is of polish descent and VERY stubborn, so many disagreements ensue stemming from him either misunderstanding me and assuming something else (That drives me absolutely buggy!) or simply because he didn't listen and later tells me I never even told him.

Exactly ! I will sometimes say something and he goes "Uh Huh" or "OK", so I am assumming he both heard and understood me . Later he will say I never said it !! GRRRRRR. Then if I say it in a loud voice so I KNOW he hears me then I am BIT*CING.

Honestly, given a choice, I would rather be alone.We have far too many issues.

It depends on what day you talk to me whether I like mine or dislike him. It all depends on how today went. Alot of times I have pleasantly fantasized what it would be like without him around. At those times, I will often remind him, in front of our friends, "Good thing I have a few life insurance policies on him, eh?" And then I laugh. He then tells all of them, that I'm not joking. That I am looking forward to outlasting him.

Well some days I like mine (even after everything that's happened) but they sure are getting fewer and further between..

Hi meg,
Yep , it's hard at work too and sometimes I have had to "Override" what my Boss might have said simply because I know what works and what dosn't. He has never stood in my shoes and dosn't understand.

Sometimes that is true with men ( husbands ) as well. I can't say this for all men because I know they arn't all like this , but my husband is one of those who considers women to be inferior and therefore must ALWAYS be in charge and make the disisions. Well other than what to cook for dinner or how to wash a window ect. He only admits that I smell better than him .

Oh Well,perhaps I'll win the lottery soon.

Cheers!

Sigh,
