Too much anger at husband??

I guess I have a hard time deciding if I get too angry at my DH or not. I'm tired of being upset over things he does, and sometimes I don't know if I go overboard or not...or if it does any good. I also think sometimes I am too quick to think about giving up on my marriage. (It's my 2nd one, and I have little patience I guess)
For example, do you get upset with how your DH takes care of your kids? If he does something differently than you would, does it bug you? Like if he doesn't feed them when you would... if you would have dinner by 6 or so and he's feeding them around 8. This happens when I'm at work...not all the time, but sometimes.
Also, the procrastination drives me nuts. Do most men wait until the last minute to do things? Like when there's a deadline for a project at work, do they push it off until you want to scream? I'm just looking for any DH's out there that might be like mine.
How do you handle your emotions if you get mad at your husband? I'm not perfect, but some things he does are getting to me. He is dedicated to our family, which is the most important thing, but we just think so differently about certain things, it bothers me.
Help me work on my short fuse! Any ideas?

thanks,
Kim

It seems to be a growing trend lately :)


I've been getting the same from my DW


The bottom line is communicate.

Kim,


I just read Stacy's post & I have to totally agree with her!


My DH & I have only been married for 10 years, but back in August of '03 we had an argument so bad it almost broke us up.

Thanks to Kelly (mom2emsopmax) for my beautiful siggy! Photobucket

Thank you. Yes, all the replies were great! I'll have to keep reading them to stay focused.
I think a lot of it is I get anxious going to work because I want to be at home, too! I guess I can't clone myself. Luckily I only work part time, but it's still hard sometimes.

Even my DH tells me just because we have different ways of doing things, doesn't mean we can't stay together. I am glad we have agreed on things lately and I'm trying to be nicer.

Thanks everyone.

Kim
